Toy company Kenner bought the rights to produce toys based on George Lucas' upcoming space fantasy film, Star Wars. Predicting the movie would do poorly, they did not manufacture toys in time for the movie's release in May, 1977.

Star Wars action figures were finally released in 1978

I remember watching a Star Wars special about this. They were advertising what were effectively vouchers as Christmas presents. That's right, you could be a small boy who's just seen Star Wars for the first time and find a voucher for a toy under the Christmas tree.
