Also, I checked the link you sent. That's QUITE an old thread (there are far closer lists that have been compiled since then), and the forum owner himself essentially dismissed the list in the last post of the thread you linked (and he is one of the few who has handled the ESB helmet).

I didn't comment on the quality. My points were just the facts. And my intention was to say that any comparison between the SS and HT products is kind of irrelevant. Like comparing grapes to watermelon.
Pretty good job on Vader's height.
Looking at the picture. Boba Fett looks a tad short compared to the actual shot.
That's a nice picture, but yeah the 1/6th Fett is more teenager height.
Actually, Fett is not short. Vader is ridiculously tall.

Fett is probably about Luke's height under the helmet.
Maybe a SMIDGE taller than that. But close. And remember, Fett was played by SEVERAL different actors. The above screenshot is NOT Jeremy Bulloch (though I'm sure you already know that).

Maybe. I have no idea who plays Fett in any particular scene (I don't know the names of any extras either 
), but it appeared to me that care was taken to never make the character appear tall.

Exactly, and these Vader's can only be shortened so much before the proportions get funky.
That's true.
Nice display, I'm going to pose my Fett like yours now. Did you mod the vest?

that light green chest armor / cod etc kills me. The helmet tone is fine. Gauntlet tones are perfect. But if the chest armor could've been given a little more attention to being the correct green and the one left shoulder bell having a touch more yellow, this figure could've been definitive. The helmet shape is a bit off but honestly not a big deal, not like the light color green they chose for the chest/cod/collar/backplate. It should've been similar to the gauntlet green but darker.
I don't think this is the absolute set in stone reference, TDH has some great stuff and since these photos Lou of the ECG 501st has made corrections/upgrades. but I would say for a general idea of the color scheme to ESB Fett this is a solid reference:
501st Legion: Vader's Fist

I still love my Sideshow Fett. I did the chest mod and it helped tremendously. I'm fine with the color problems people here have pointed out. The only other thing that bothers me are those damn short forearms! Those short forearms have been a problem ever since the first prometheus was released. It wasn't as noticeable back then, but comparing with the newer pros, you really see a difference. But Fett's forearms are in a whole other league in shortness! I sometimes wonder if someone high up at Sideshow has freakishly short forearms and he keeps telling the artists to shorten the arms because they all seem too long to him!

Received last week the 1/6 Sideshow Boba Fett.
This is only my third Sideshow figure, whereas I am having some problems with my newly purchased R2-D2 (pics will follow later on)
This was a smooth unpacking and display piece.
I love the box with the flip cover, so you can see the whole figure and all its accesories.
Also really like the fact that all hands come with pegs already installed, saves for a lot of trouble.
In short, great figure that can be had for a great price

You just picked this up? Where did you get it for a good price?
