Vlix Oncard was a Male Annoo-dat Blue who worked as the head of security for the infamous Fromm Gang, reporting directly to Sise Fromm. He was a close friend and confidant of Tig Fromm, and was fiercely loyal to the family. Vlix also served on the Trigon One before it was destroyed. Vlix was taken along with Sise and Tig Fromm when they were captured by Boba Fett and delivered to Jabba Desilijic Tiure.
Behind the scenes[]
Vlix Oncard was created for the animated series Star Wars: Droids, and first appeared in the episode "The White Witch,"[1] written by Peter Sauder and first broadcast on September 7, 1985.[2] The character was voiced by John Stocker.[3]
Vlix is probably the rarest action figure ever commercially released. He was only released by the Brazilian distributor of Kenner toys, Glasslite. An article in Polyhedron magazine by Rich Handley and Abel G. Peña, about the Droids cartoons, revealed the character's last name. The name "Oncard" is an in-joke reference to the fact that the figure is rarest when found "on card."
