Background
From a Kenner Toy Fair catalog:
YODA'S HOME AND LUKE SKYWALKER'S TRAINING GROUND
There's only one place in the universe with snakes swamps and YODA, THE JEDI
MASTER, DAGOBAH! Kids can now relive all of LUKE SKYWALKER'S and YODA'S
adventures with this dramatic playset. Inside the craggy tree is YODA'S tiny
house. With the help of two action levers, LUKE SKYWALKER can levitate
himself, two storage containers, and even R2-D2 as YODA teaches him the ways
of the "THE FORCE." There's also a play "bog" where R2-D2 and other Action
Figures might sink. In the tree cave, LUKE SKYWALKER confronts the dark side.
Move the two action levers and relive LUKE SKYWALKER'S and DARTH VADER'S
LIGHTSABER duel.
This was always one of my favorites. There is just so much packed into this set and
the "levitation" mechanism is one of the cooler inventions Kenner had for the Star Wars
line. One of the detriments of this piece, however, is that the foam in the swamp
easily detoriates, crumbling to dust. As for a bit of trivia, the designer of this piece
etched his daughter's name into the base of this playset somewhere. Can you find it?
