1979: STAR WARS DESIGN A DROID COMPETITION (Palitoy)

Filming the original STAR WARS SAGA in the UK certainly must have made life easier for Palitoy's Marketing Department: it's a lot easier (and cheaper) to send prize winners to North London than it is to Hollywood to another exotic international location.

This DESIGN A DROID competition was widely promoted in April 1979 by which point, location filming for THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK was well underway.

Who won... and what they saw... is now lost in the mists of time.... unless you know otherwise....
