That's a great idea -- the Sarlacc base would actually work much better with those 3 inch figures! Or maybe the 6 inch ones.
If only I had any of those out anymore.
That's true. Its a greatly detailed stand from a moment that never happened. Not sure why everyone is so excited by it -- its "Special Edition" stuff to boot.
I'll be getting the regular -- and a loose tentacle hopefully to use as a Dianoga for the Luketrooper I don't have yet.
Great video BTW!

I think I decided on the regular. Boba will be displayed with Vader and the five troopers I have on my "Imperial" shelf. Would look odd to have the Sarlacc displayed with them.

He looks fantastic with that stand.
Buy deluxe version and sell that Sarlacc stand on ebay for some extra bucks

Sorry if it's a dumb question. Is this hot toys boba that much better than the SSC Boba? I have the sideshow but am thinking of getting the Hot Toys version. Thanks to all in advance for the advice/ Help.

I'm sure its only matter of Time someone does the sarlac justice and adds a ton of sand around the pit for Boba Fett. Perfect figure dio for outside play n pic's dig a hole add sand and have fun walking the plank Luke.
i sold my sideshow boba and am impatient to get this one: The paint job is MUCH better. I'm 100% sure the body will be way more poseable that the sideshow. I also hope the back pad holds with a magnet and not just some crappy hooks like the sideshow version. And finally , I like the color scheme of ROTJ better than ESB

Back pack hangs by a couple clips. No magnets.
Too bad, the magnetic backpack on the FO troopers is excellent.

Agreed about the magnetic packs. Love that feature.
Odd choice, especially considering it comes with the dynamic stand where you can pose him flying. If you pose him leaning back slightly the jet pack is going to hang away from his body at the bottom. Won't be an issue for me because Boba's only going to be in stoic poses. I'll probably take the sarlaac stand out to take a look but he won't be posed on it.
Hopefully he'll be here by Friday.

Only a matter of time before the new canon says he escaped (just like the old canon). And if Maul could survive that Theed shaft...
Or worse.... he'll have a son too... Dongo Fett... and it's Finn.... he never knew his parents because Boba sold him as a baby.
Finn is Fett.

That reminds me, one of the so-called spoilers for TFA was that Finn was Lando's son. Like there's so few black guys in the galaxy they must be related!
(Or else Lando has so many illegitimate offspring throughout the galaxy the odds are high)

Well, after watching figurejunkie's video review...I've PO'd this. It does look good.
The only major difference right off the bat between the two (SSC & HT) is that HT has opted not to do any weathering on the coveralls (flight suit)...but they haven't really gone for any on these SW figures so far (look how clean ANH Luke's outfit is). The clean outfit only sticks out more here because of the very intense looking weathering and detailing on the armor pieces. Not a deal-breaker by any means...the outfit and gear look well tailored and detailed.
It goes without saying the base body will (hopefully) have more articulation to it than it's SSC counterpart (unless it's hampered by a padded body suit under the outfit like so many Marvel characters are...throwing any intense "action" posing possibilities out the airlock unless the suit is removed). The video didn't feature any extreme "action" poses...so we'll have to wait for some folks in here to provide some "in hand" perspective on that.
I'm looking forward to this...but I'm not tossing away my Sideshow version...I still like the way that one displays.

It's easier to wash their clothes after a fight than to repaint the armor.
