Lol I knew that, but doesn't look like it was ever built for functionality, which made me think some kind of head dress or outfit. It was a guess let's be honest

This being a joke because of the amount of memes about headsets not being wireless. But its the future. In a galaxy far far away

@Robot Man might be a cheat sheet for these

That's nice that they filled it up, i wonder if they stopped cause it was full

I do the same with mag slabs 

It's got nostalgia written all over it though

Is the mic on it functional?  Or is there no mic and is a radio only earphone?

I'll have to look when I get back in Monday but I think I remember something on the box saying that the rockets arn't functional

I would mount my 12 backs on those and just let them stand there for days; looking at them when I returned home from school. I still have my original case along with a bunch of loose figures. Good times. 

I remember vividly walking into a Kmart in late 70s and they had these gigantic fenced bins in the middle of the main store aisle stuffed with tons of the SW figures; this was in addition to the dedicated aisle and end caps in the toy section. I believe the selling price was $1.99   

Fast forward 25 years later, a collector I know was going through a terrible divorce and offered me all of the original 12 backs, each one slabbed AFA 90 for $12,000.

Fast forward another 20 years to present day, and that same lot would fetch easily $300K+

The cost of true nostalgic bliss for those with the means is absolutely priceless.

I have a similar case filled with Hot Wheels "Crack Ups" from the '80s, along with some Marvel-themed Hot Wheels that a have a little window in the back that you can look in to see a little comic scene inside. No idea of their worth or what to do with them.

No notification… some have remarked on this lately… either way this just showed up at my door.
