Mint-in-box 1984 Kenner Star Wars Boba Fett found
Description
I found a mint-in-box 1984 Kenner Star Wars Boba Fett action figure this afternoon around 3:15 pm in the parking lot behind the St Louis Science Center, near the planetarium entrance. The card back is blue with a clean blister, and the figure still looks untouched, with the blaster tucked under his arm. There's a small price sticker on the back reading $29.99 from a vintage shop, and the blister has a touch of yellowing along the edges. If this belongs to someone, I’d be happy to help get it back; it’s a pretty iconic piece for any collector, and I know it probably means a lot to a Star Wars fan.

How to safely return this item
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the owner before handing it back
- Ask the claimant for a specific identifying detail before confirming.
- If valuable, ask for a photo with matching ID, receipt, or original packaging.
- Never post the precise location publicly. Share it only with a verified owner.
- Do not accept payment to return it. That is a red flag for a scam claim.
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.
