1/6 Hot Toys 1/6 Boba Fett ESB Version

[matrix69]

Nice custom Matrix

Stellar matrix, stellar. Love seeing some of the customs you guys pull off. Amazing.

Brilliant matrix! Absolutely awesome. Love the little touches like the light-up beacon!

in 2005, Hurricane built me a wicked Boba Fett -- and included a light-up front chest panel AND jetpack beacon. I haven't seen one since. Mine has been hidden safely away to protect it so I have no idea if it still works or even how to get the batteries out. But it was a grail figure for many years in the early days of collecting 1/6th.

Loved the light-up chest panel on Hurricane's...great shame that HT can't do the same...then again maybe they will in a 2.0 future version along with a 3d scanned/printed out accurate helmet..

Daammmmmmmmmn. Bravo.

Thanks for the compliments guys

I can’t temember which book it was but there was a story from the old EU that had Han take the Falcon out for a spin as he’s bored during the peace brought about by the death of the Emperor (before we were told they all fought for nothing as a company called the First Order picked up all the old Imperial stock at a massive liquidation auction). He ends up on some shady place from his past and runs into Fett and they end up gun barrel to gun barrel. The story mentions a time in the past when a younger Fett witnessed a younger Han win a gladiatorial type contest where he fought for his life... saying there was a respect for his bravery etc. Even Lucas shoehorned him into ANH. I don’t think there needed to be any fanfare for the ESB contract... Fett was one of many interested in Jabba’s contract and when they met at Cloud City Han obviously aimed his shots at Vader. I’m sure most of us could write a half convincing scenario for Fett to have a cameo in Solo.

BF didn't come out until after Han shot at Vader.

Yeah... I think in my attempt at writing that while waiting at my daughters school things came out wrong. It was more about there being no need for any kind of fanfare or direct angst between Han & Fett. There’s nothing they need to retcon. If we can ignore Obi Wan having no memory of R2 and 3PO then there should be no issue with them having any kind of back story.

I predict a Jabba and Fett appearance. I don’t think they’d pass that chance up for a bit more fan service not to mention the MERCH.

I'm almost at the point of thinking there'll be Lucasfilm people with Merch Guns like Batman in the Lego Batman Movie just firing stuff out to the audience. But charging for it. Obviously.

Think again!

Oh man... well one can only hope then

Can someone please explain this picture to me. I’m pretty sure I see Kathleen Kennedy, but what is this all about?

Kathleen Kennedy appeared as a guest at The Archer Film Festival a few years back, which spotlights young student female filmmakers. To highlight her appearance, the festival made shirts that read "The Force is Female."

Certain people have interpreted this as meaning that "Kathleen Kennedy hates men," because simple binary thinking makes it impossible for them to comprehend the idea that you can want to encourage young women as filmmakers without hating men. It's not a zero sum game.

"The Force is female" is exclusionary language. Shouldn't The Force be gender-neutral?

Clearly the force is selective and also something that can just "happen" to anyone, no training necessary.

And you all just proved my point.

If your point was that TLJ was a horrible movie full of ridiculous plotlines and awful storytelling that accomplished almost nothing to advance the storyline started in TFA and disrespected the original Star Wars universe in general then I agree.

Oh please. In your commentary here, replace the name Kathleen Kennedy with George Lucas and replace the word female with male. Then put KK's shirt on GL and change the words to "The Force is Male". Now try to make the same argument without making a jerk out of yourself.

 

[ridetofight]

everyone is a jerk when it comes to something... like when blind han mistake nly knocked boba into the sarlacc pit. we're all just blind hans trying to fumble our way through a sand skif melee. let our differences wash away like the shifting dunes of tatooine and be thankful for our chewbaccas, landos, and lukes. may the force be with you regardless of how many pieces your bathing suit is.

I like that one. Hahaha

Nah, just mansplaining why every word of what you just said was wrong.

Those T-shirts are probably fine for the target audience in the context of the event they were at. But once the image circulates on the internet it loses that context and excludes half the fan base.

Sure, women have been downtrodden for millennia and you could argue they deserve to get some of their own back. But reverse discrimination is still discrimination.
