@Buzz Don't be fooled by mold recycling, what you got there, is a re-use of a mold with a lot less paint apps than the original Boba (which goes for $24 on BBTS), believe it or not it's probably a lot more expensive to make the DCC ones than the Proto Boba, given how every character has very unique molds, and other than the joints, DCC's overall plastic quality tends to be better than Hasbro's.
Recycling molds is something Hasbro is well known for, not DCC, just look at the Marvel Legends figures.
But Boba Fett is one of the best figures Hasbro has ever put out, but the average of their products has nowhere near that level of detail, DCC easily trumps them in that regard.
Take a look at this figure.
You may think it's a pretty decent sculpt huh? Well that body mold has been used easily on dozens and dozens of different characters, what they do is repaint it (rarely any new sculpting) and swap parts from other characters, throw on a headsculpt with minimum detail and call it a day... That's the average Hasbro figure.
Now DCC's Bizarro.
Every single thing is sculpted and painted with detail, there's not a single figure that shares anything with that figure, there rarely is.
You can see they could've reused the Superman mold on the left, easy money, but they didn't, everything's different, they even threw in extra articulation.
That's the average DCC figure, better and more individual sculpts and better paint, that's why DCC tends to cost more.
You can't blame them for the style of the figures, they even sculpted parts they could've just painted on like the bat logo, belt, etc, but they didn't.
