A rare Star Wars toy that was hunted out of a bargain bin for 99p is set to sell for £1,000. A canny collector snapped up a Yak-Face figure from Return of the Jedi at a Tesco in the 1980s.
Originally priced at £1.59, it was marked down for a quick sale. It was kept sealed in the original packaging and it is now tipped to sell at auction for between £800 and £1,000.
The figure was bought by another collector who then spent 20 years hunting down more toys from the film trilogy. His collection of 37 figures is set to go under the hammer and is expected to fetch a total of £20,000.
