Here's my review of the HT Boba Fett. I dunno, maybe I've been spoiled with so many other great figures, but I wasnt as wowed with this figure as I thought I'd be. I think the Sideshow figure still holds up pretty well in comparison. Still, a nice paint app and underlying body are nice.
here we go.
Overall, I find the Boba Fett on the left to be closer to the real thing than the stock Hot Toys Fett (right).

I am not a Boba Fett expert, I am missing things such as details on the helmet, clours, etc. but I am going for the overall movie-like feel of the figure.
SS helmet on left i think
haha, yes!
I mean, the accuraccy I was talking about is the body and head proportions and shape of the helmet.
Let me compare...
The Sideshow helmet is the ESB paintjob which is completely different to the ROTJ version.
You never see Fett wearing the ESB helmet in ROTJ so it's not accurate if you're going for the ROTJ look. The only time you see him with the ESB helmet on the ROTJ suit is in the Star Wars: A New Hope Special Edition where Han see Jabba in Docking Bay 94.

Don't know why that middle piece is such a common issue. Mine arrives Friday so I'll see then.
