The Vehicle Maintenance Energizer 'Toy'.... Hmmm, I think you'll struggle to find many children or collectors that hold this one high in their lists of vintage favourites. It might be a toy of something that was actually in 'The Empire Strikes Back' (a fact which surprises a few people, since it's not exactly prominent in the film), but it's also quite possibly the single most boring toy Kenner made in the entire vintage line. I can't even be bothered to criticise it any further, it's so tedious!

Here's my unused one:

Great toy, although annoyed me as a kid because the suckers always came of the the rebel transporter!

Nice mint set and thanks for sharing it mate I agree it is a boring set and it was a set that I first learned about in 2001 I think it is ok that there is a set to repair and fuel vehicles like the x-wing etc. etc. but as a few other items like anakin etc. etc kenner could have used the time to create a better playset and better figures

A 'great toy'? Really? My sincere congratulations for managing to think that! I've always considered it a major dud, but if you like it then excellent! I'm glad it has some fans out there!

I loved it as a kid, ok its not up their with the AT-AT or X-Wing! But I loved it because it was different from anything else and you actually had something to fuel your ships. I had a lot of fun setting it up.

Excellent! Maybe Kenner did know what they were doing!
