TABLE OF CONTENTS

Country of origin: Australia

It is worth noting that all Toltoys mailers came with Palitoy baggies as I believe Palitoy supplied them for these offers & as with the Palitoy one they came simply in a box with the baggie, no paperwork at all, but the 4-LOM was issued with a Kenner baggie, assumed to have been issued before Palitoy bag stocks were available like the early Palitoy issued mailers (Fett).

There is also a confirmed 3rd box font style of the Toltoys mailers for at least the 4-Lom & possibly the Nien Nunb, it differs significantly in terms of the printing on the box, sadly I do not have an image available I am able to share publicly.

4-Lom

NOTE that the 4-Lom was issued in a Kenner logo baggie unlike all other TT mailers, it is speculated that this is due to production of TT’s baggies (same style used by palitoy) had not started at the time this offer was available & they were supplied Kenner baggies for the first available mail away offer they ran.

Admiral Ackbar

Palitoy-b baggie, please NOTE – it would seem the Ackbar mailer was only ever issued with the plain white overstock box rather than the one with the printed address info as was previously considered (& shown here) for the for the Paul’s Ice Cream promotion, thanks to James Kenneison for the confirmation.

Other info as to where the Ackbar offer came in also courtesy of Robert Heron –

Seems he was never offered on a cardback & this is the way it was found – It was advertised on ice block wrappers (Lollies) by the company Paul’s (in conjunction with Toltoys), and never advertised on any card back, see below photos –

Nien Nunb

Please NOTE that Nien Nunb was available with 2 font styled mailers (possibly even 3), large & smaller font version.

Survival Kit

Boxes shown with Toltoys sticker, would have had the same palitoy baggies in them as the palitoy examples (see palitoy mailer section)
