Kim Simmons, the man who photographed those much-loved original vintage figures, thus making him a key player in the Star Wars story has been interviewed by All The Star Wars

The interview looks at his work from the early 80’s right up to the early 2000’s.

Kim Simmons was one of the original photographers for Kenner/Hasbro and is responsible for the amazing pictures on the vehicle and playset boxes from the original Kenner Star Wars line back in the 1980’s up through Kenner’s transition to Hasbro in the early 90’s and up until 2000. I met Kim on Facebook and helped him out with some promotion for his Facebook page at the time. Kim is a very nice person so talking with him and working with him was extremely easy and personable.
