Episode 1 Mini Figure CollectionIn 1999 Hasbro decided that some non-US markets needed different figure offerings than the standard 3.75" figures with CommTech Chips. The CommTech chips were translated into a few European languages for release but cost saving measures led to the release of the Bonus Battle Droid and Bonus Pit Droid sets in some countries. In Asia an entirely different set of figures was released. Consisting of eight carded characters, this set of Mini Figures clocked in at about 2" tall. They were sold in various South East Asia countries and Australia. Besides the eight basic figures there was also a carded Naboo Starfighter with Anakin and a Gift Set that was limited to 25,000 pieces. The Gift Set was sold in Australia at Toys-R-Us and Big-W stores and was also available in some other Asian markets. The figures are fairly decent representations of their larger counterparts and make for a fun collectible to complement a US collection.
