Vintage 1977 Luke Skywalker figure, mint on card
Description
I lost my vintage 1977 Luke Skywalker action figure, mint on the original card, yesterday around 3pm in Southwest Michigan, after browsing Hall's Hobby Shop on State Street in downtown St. Joseph, near Silver Beach. The figure is in its blue Kenner packaging with the basic 'Star Wars' logo; there’s a small crease along the top-right corner of the card and a faint coffee stain on the back. It means a lot to me—it was my dad's favorite piece and now part of my own growing collection, so I really need it back. If anyone found it near the shop, the marina area, or around Silver Beach, please reach out.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
