In addition to the figures, many one-of-a-kind items are showcased, such as early drawings and mock-up packaging designs. Collectors interested in the line's history are provided unprecedented access and rare insights into Kenner's preproduction process.

This hardbound edition includes 268 pages which contain over 900 photographs, including a large number of rare one-of-a-kind items. There are also many useful charts which present the data in a summary format for easy reference. Prices for production items are also included.

Proof card variations
Kenner store and prototype displays.
If you've got even a casual interest in the classic action figure line, this quality publication provides a wonderful first step into a larger world.
