You may not know his name, but if you’re a Kenner Star Wars fan or collector, you certainly know his work. Jawa, Death Squad Commander, Leia Hoth, 2-1B, the B-Wing Pilot, Yak Face - these are some of the original figures sculpted by the legendary Bill Lemon. While sculpting in wax was the preferred method for Kenner designers, Bill carved figures from acetate. It took a true master of his craft to be able to do so, and in addition to being admired by his fellow sculptors for his work, his creations are some of the most coveted pieces to Star Wars collectors around the world. Join host David Quinn for a conversation with Gary Borbidge about the life and talent of the famed toy sculptor, Bill Lemon. Gary is an ardent fan and collector of Bill’s sculpts, and co-authored the essential tome “Engineering an Empire: The Creators of Kenner’s Star Wars Toys.” For more information about Bill’s work, as well as a look into the galaxy of Kenner Star Wars toys, please visit The Star Wars Collectors Archive: http://theswca.com/images-production.html To learn more about Engineering an Empire, or to purchase a copy of the book: https://engineeringanempirebook.com/ If you enjoy Star Wars: Prototypes and Production, please leave a review on your podcast platform, and please tell a friend (or twenty)! It would be most appreciated - you have the power to help grow the podcast! Thank you in advance!
