Description
Star Wars Death Squad Commander 12-Back B AFA 80 (Kenner, 1978). Kenner's 1978 Star Wars launch introduced kids to the saga's heroes, villains, and a handful of mysterious background characters. Among the original 12 was the Death Squad Commander, a black-helmeted officer whose ambiguous identity fascinated young fans. While the figure was later renamed "Star Destroyer Commander," this first release under the menacing "Death Squad" title stands as one of the most infamous quirks of the early line. The 12-Back B cardback, carrying the original character grid, remains a foundational piece for vintage collectors. This example has been graded AFA 80 NM with subgrades of C80 B85 F80. As part of the legendary "12-Back" assortment, the Death Squad Commander is an essential addition to any collection charting the origins of Kenner's Star Wars line. With its dark mystique and evocative naming, this piece offers a direct link back to the earliest days of the galaxy far, far away.Heritage Auctions provides as much information as possible but strongly encourages in-person inspection.
