The Kenner Chewbacca from the 70's. Lost his bandolier in less than a week, I used to carry it around with me everywhere. I guess that really dates me.

You all have nothing on me. My very first 12" action figure was GI Joe with Kung Fu Grip...the original one.

Probably this:

I was a kid of the 80s, so the era of the popular 12 inch boys' toys had passed.

I guess Skyfire/Jetfire and Superion (Transformers) were roughly 12 inches tall, and I got those before Duke, but I don't guess they count.

We had lots of 12" figures when I was little: GI Joe, including Mike Power, Steve Austin, Captain Action etc.

When my son was born in 1999 my wife and I had him in his stroller in KB and I saw TPM Obi Wan on clearance and I said I was getting it for him.
She said "You don't even know if he'll like Star Wars."
"Oh he'll like Star Wars" I replied.

I think it was Kenner's 12" Admiral Ackbar.

Well the first figure I bought and was truly only collecting 12" moving forward was the DX01.

However, after reading most of the peoples posts here I have to agree that my FIRST 12" figure was from the POTF Star Wars line in 95'ish. They weren't really called POTF but came out at the same time that the POTF 3 3/4" line was out.

My first 12" fig was Firefly courtesy of my g/f. My first 12" SW figure was a set of 3 actually (Jedi Like, Darth Maul, and SDCC Anakin - Sith).

 

[Famine07]

This.

I loved this as a kid, I had a few others but Cobra Commander was my favorite. The original was lost/broken/donated so I had to re-buy one, came across it on ebay for about $14.

 

[EXOTICLEX]

not bad for $14^^^^

The Count was my first. Found in the bargain bin. Best Hasbro 1/6 if you ask me lol.

I am proud to say it was a Lili Ledy Kenner Darth Vader from back in the day. After him followed R2 and 3PO. I was around 9-10 years old. Since then, I've been a fan of the Dark Father.

I also had the Bionic Mission Vehicle, Bionic Transport/Repair table, Mission Control Center (mine didn't have a f'ing Dome), Critical Assignment Arms, Bionic Adventure Space Suit. CB Headset and Radio receiver
