Boba Fett Life-Size Bust!

[jason2885]

I've got my 1:1 busts in Bestas as well. What are you planning on doing?

My plan is kind of complicated. I am going to have to move around a lot of stuff as I have Vegby doors in one room and Tombo doors in the other. So what I am going to do is Im going to take a two of the 7inch deep by 75 inch high units connect it to the back of one of my 75" double units be 22 inches deep. I will then use the 50inch tombo doors because Boba is really tall too and put Salacious Crumb or another shorted bust under him. In my head I have it worked out but it may be hard to explain. Since they dont sell Vegby doors anymore it will be hard for anyone who doesnt already have them to attempt to do what Im going to try. I will definitely post pictures of what I finally come up with.

Also for the person who asked Boba is 25 inches wide and 30 inches tall that is 3 inches too wide and 5 inches too tall to fit in a standard Besta as it is only 22 inches wide. My plan is to have him sit sideways with his head looking straight out of the case.

"except the DC forum..."

Looking good, Deak!

Thanks Walla-walla-bing-bang! Look for all of the unintentional Easter Eggs in the video: Kenner Wampa, Snowtrooper, Leia, and x2 Stormtroopers. Also a vintage ROTJ trash can. This really is a thing of beauty, sure there could be some improvements but overall it’s a very impressive piece.

Nice video -and very impressive piece. I passed on it for now due to my collectible plate being full -but it's on my wish list now.

Really cool video. I'm not a Fett collector, I know this might not be 100% accurate but still looks quite impressive.

I hear you, close enough for me. Brant said LFL asked for color changes so I get it. The only thing I would really change would be the inner cheeks of the helmet. They should pretty much be black. The helmet shape itself is awesome. I am sure a custom paintjob would take it to a whole other level. Still it looks really good up close and for a factory paint job it's one of SSC's best.

I tried calling Sideshow on Friday to have them go ahead and charge my last flex payment, but nobody answered the phone. I'll try again today.

Maybe it's that Texas annex phone block you guys have that kicks in 3PM pacific standard time? You know, where you guys separate from the union and rise above sea level 12 hours a day just to show you can?

Well, I never got a chance to call back, but I got a shipping notice today.
