[QUOTE="Snaketibe, post: 437984, member: 7379"] That is true, it did. I have no idea if that continued beyond Empire into the Jedi era though. I'd always assumed it was simply Palitoy messing up, since the Star Wars logo is on them, but so is the Palitoy one, and since Palitoy never issued the Falcon in a Star Wars box, it's not a case of them recycling instructions from a previous release, it's them simply including ones printed with the wrong logo (probably based off the Kenner SW ones, of course). Perhaps Palitoy had planned to release a SW boxed version of the Falcon, but then delayed production / release until the new film came out, but had already printed the instruction leaflets and didn't want to reprint them? Who knows! :-) As for other items coming with instructions from a previous release, I will bow to the superior knowledge of others in that regard. I suppose it's certainly possible, but either way, as Ian says, finding some Jedi instructions shouldn't be that hard if you want some. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
