#ThrowbackThursday: This vintage ad for the Palitoy #BobaFett figure in 1980 is both badass and cheesy.

According to the Palitoy Advert Archive, which was authored by David Tree ("All The Cool Stuff") who tracked down all the original commercials and paid PRS licensing fees before selling DVDs, this ad ran on April 7, 1980.

Helmet nod to Clark Kent and Mike R for sharing versions of this classic on YouTube.
