Wow! That's kinda odd, but rather dubious looking if you ask me. No set
number, no part count (could be foreign I suppose?), wacky name for a set
(heck, why make such a set?), and to date I can't think of any sets since
the late 70's that have had the little hook-holes and no inner baggies, but
harder plastic casing (IE non-polybag). Also... shouldn't it have the 1x1
black round plates? Maybe I just can't see 'em in the picture...
Could the cardboard backing be from the Yoda box (or someone's scan)
modified slightly with the text, and stuffed into the plastic casing for
something completely un-related? If it's a bona fide set though, very wierd!
And a great way to get extra ball-and-socket joints!
