Kenner’s Star Wars figures used to bring Atari games to life

Kenner Atari Customs

Dan Polydoris of Chicago Toy Collector has taken some of Kenner’s vintage Star Wars figures and customized them to look like characters from classic Atari 2600 games.

As someone who grew up playing these games, seeing the box art brought to life is pretty cool.  In game they were never more than a few pixelated blobs.  Thinking about all the adventures these figures could have had ghost busting, helping defend Boulder Hill or fighting against the Empire in a galaxy far, far away is fun to think about.

More pictures can be found on his Flickr page along with other custom action figures he has made.
