Hey Guys ,
I recently got my Boba . I am a Boba Fett costume nerd , I can tell you now this figure is 99 % ACCURATE so I dont undertsand why all the hate for this beast of a figure.
The helmet is perfect and looks bang on and believe me ive studied the costume for years. The wookie braids could look dirtier , but they are accurate to the movie, but would better if they were made from horse hair. The tools are accurate , the cape is accurate, the weathering is accurate as it can be, .
My only three nit picks.
The gloves should be light grey , but can forgive Hot Toys because the gloves change colour from Jabbas palace to the sail barge scene.
The hoses from the right arm guantlett , should have a clear or semi clear vynil tube over them .
The chest armour should of had either a fake led display or an actual one .
The materials and of the suit, flak vest and spats and belt pockets, and note *** colours ** are perfect . Past Boba figures have had a leathery pleathery flak vest , but should actually be a twill, wet weather fishing vest type of material , and hot toys nailed it . perfect material and lool and style, especially the neck seal and shoulder parts. The shoulder parts have never been this perfect , and always seem to miss the look of the padded quilted look and style.
It would have been awesome for hot toys to incorporate some real wood and metals to the gun for that realism feel and look.
Guys this is a good priced figure and very nice and mostly accurate . i think the issue is people rather buy the 1/6 version when he comes out .
The belt could do with some minor weatheirng , and the flight suit could look a little dirtier. but thats easy to fix with Tamiya weathering kits.
