Premium Format Boba Fett Premium Format Figure - New Version

[DarthChrisDK]

With SS making the definitive ESB Fett and Hot Toys making the definative 1/4 scale ROTJ. Fett it's a pretty good time to be a Fett collector. Now wall we need is a better quality Lifesized bust

Bah! The existing bust is magnificent. Best Star Wars bust in my opinion.

It is very nice, but there's room for improvement. I would want part of his jet pack to be added for one.

and a better paint job. I kind of regret selling my MR bucket. Hopefully EFX gets moving with theirs.

The best star wars bust in my opinion is vader.

eFX should have a photo prototype ready like SUPER soon to start presales on that they'll quickly have ready as soon as November 2015 (which would be translated to 2018 or sometime like that)

SSC's Bust is very nice for their effort a few years ago but a V2 wouldn't be such a bad thing. They could go with SE Fett. Upgrade their pinch in the visor, accurate paint job, and have a part of the ROTJ Jetpack that was missing from the first release.

niennumb1, I would expect we won't be seeing efx's Fett until early '16 at the earliest! I can't wait to get that even if I have a Fett Pride helmet being painted right now.

I like the EX on this. Yes, I'm fully aware that it's not "film-canon." I prefer the ESB armor to the ROTJ, but I like the ROTJ rifle a lot better than the ESB one. I even have a MR ROTJ blaster displayed on top of an ESB cape.

Not a big leap for me to imagine Fett using a blend of gear from the different movies, a sort of progression of technology. The way the characters appeared in the film certainly isn't the only way they would've looked. Doesn't seem like a big deal.

The exclusive should have been a removable blaster hand with his pucle-40 sidearm not the ROTJ EE.

Check the HT one

 

[nocturmac]

How does the PF compare to the HT version?

 

[dao2]

Depends how they come out. The ball join on the chest is a point of concern for me in the HT one though it's hidden decently. Compared to each other I like the HT ones a bit better. Production pieces will be the true tell though, and I think HT will also edge out there too but v0v. I plan on getting both.

 

[budafett]

Check the HT one

Which doesn't make sense for HTs. He never wore the holster and blaster for ROTJ/SE just like ESB Boba never used the ROTJ EE.

 

[dao2]

I don't think anybody is going for accuracy with the new Fetts (if they are they are failing pretty hard, neither helmets or armor are close). They are incredibly idealized, it's a nice touch to have though.

 

[marker2037]

I'm sticking with the PF even though the HT looks pretty decent. But the HT just isn't doing it for me for some reason. I feel very blah toward it. I don't have an ESB Fett anywhere in my collection so I'm happy that the PF is so badass. Too bad it's so far away until I'll actually have it.

 

[nocturmac]

Is the PF better than the mythos?

 

[dao2]

I believe that would be up to you.... and wait and see production pieces.

 

[Python]

Is the PF better than the mythos?

That's entirely a personal opinion. I had the mythos, it was very nice, I personally prefer the pose on this PF and the size will of course be more impressive, so for me this will be the better option if production pieces come good although I'm still not a huge fan of the base on it. Plenty will disagree of course and treasure the Mythos version and rightly so, bendy weapons aside, it is excellent.

So all the mythos came with a bended blaster? production mold issue?

 

[Python]

Not sure about all, but a large percentage did, including mine.

 

[budafett]

While the Mythos Fett is cool I'm sticking with the ESB. Looks like he just landed on Bespin waiting for the Falcon to arrive.

 

[dao2]

Yeah the mythos is pretty much all bent, and they have oddly long necks too. The degree to which the blasters are bent isn't the same but all of them have it. Harder to see from a foot or so away for the less bent ones. Molds must have got warped cause the blaster in right hand is actually impossible to fit there if it wasn't bent.
