Figure overview
Original-line Kenner Death Squad Commander figure, one of the twelve documented as existing in 1978. This entry identifies the historical character figure, not a specific cardback, accessory set, mint sealed release or sculpt variant. Preserves the historical 1978 Kenner line's Death Squad Commander name; does not relabel it as an individual named Death Star officer or infer a replacement cardback.
This entry identifies a figure in the documented original 1978 Kenner lineup. It does not establish a particular retail cardback, accessory set, head or cape variant, or a historical manufacturer SKU.
