Re: Speculation : Hot Toys Disney+ Figures "The Mandalorian" + "Cassian" + "Kenobi"
Except not really. Just because one sect (an extremist sect at that) accepts an outsider as a foundling doesn't mean all Mandalorians accept that outsider as Mandalorian. And lets remember they are referring to Jango here, not Boba. The rules of inherited status for the children of foundlings hasn't even been touched on - this season has shown Din's understanding of his culture and history is very basic and clouded by extremist views so his acceptance of Boba's right to the armour doesn't constitute gospel truth that Boba is Mandalorian by descent of a foundling. Further, the legitimate Mandalorian government of the day did not accept that an extremist group dictated who was and wasn't Mandalorian. So the case is far from closed.
There is more to the story and that may or may come out. Now you can act all emotional and attack others, but this is just the objective canon facts. So by all means keep personally attacking those being subjective to the in canon facts as presented thus far. If Boba is definitively canonised as Mandalorian, I don't really care. But until then, the facts don't definitely support that.

I actually thought about it and it actually happened.

People on FB are saying that he will either take over Slave 1, that Fett will gift him Slave 1, or that somehow he's going to take possession of the Millennium Falcon. All three of these options make me roll my eyes. Just like I did over all of the "Clone Wars" theories people put out there, each of them wildly implausible and none of which happened.
Mando will definitely get a new ship; I would imagine the ex-Empire will be providing it sooner or later.

Yeah, Boba Fett ain't giving away any of his daddies **** to anyone. The only way he is getting Slave I is if Boba dies in the finale, which is a possibility.

That would really suck, all this hype to bring him back just to kill him off for good...
Besides that, I think HT really are really hit with the COVID delays now. Whatever released this year must have been in the pipes already. Delays especially in the headsculpt department.

He's getting his own miniseries set between ROTJ and Mando, so there'd still be more Boba Fett. Be pretty fitting for him to go out by helping stop a father and child from being separated permanently. Plus there'll no doubt be comics, books all that crap.

No. Don't kill him. After all this time, his stay cannot be so brief.
Luckily I dont think this will happen.

He is a dead man. The Slave 1 will now be the Slave 2. I think there is a reason they haven't shown his sarlaac pit escape, they are saving it for his spinoff to take place immediately following his survival.

Re: Speculation : Hot Toys Disney+ Figures "The Mandalorian" + "Cassian" + "Kenobi"
As big of a Boba fan Favreau and Filoni are, they would not willingly sign up to bring back Boba just to kill him. They’re smarter than that. And as much as I have little faith in Kathleen for things, surely she’s also smart enough to understand that she finally has a lot of the fandom back and in a positive state. To mess this up would be one of the most boneheaded things they’ll ever do.

Re: Speculation : Hot Toys Disney+ Figures "The Mandalorian" + "Cassian" + "Kenobi"
That's why I said I wouldn't be that surprised. The ship is iconic but the character is problematic, because from what we've seen in the films, honour or no honour, he's evil and that's at least part of why Din's character even exists. I don't think it's a lock because Favreau may still have surprises up his sleeves for us, but the moment the RC happened I looked at the Slave I and raised an eyebrow.

He isnt evil, he is just a simple man trying to make his way in the universe.

That's what neighbors always say about the serial killer who lived next door.

Yeah I think evil is a bit of a stretch. Morally grey for sure. But there is a code behind his actions. I don't think we have anything in current canon continuity (can't speak for the Disney era comics or books - they are just placeholders until a tv/film based version overwrites them anyway as we have already seen to be the case) that suggests he is evil.

Spoilers for both Mandalorian and Lego advent calendar

So I open up today's Lego Star Wars advent calendar and what do we have. a micro build of the Razor Crest. Seriously Lego? The day after we are punched in the gut with it's destruction? And the real kicker is, no assembly required.
Well played Lego, well played.

I don’t try to overthink things but it’d be great if it was red herring and Boba betrays Din like he did Luke in the Holiday Special. But yeah, I doubt it as his theme on the show came across really heroic when he saved Din and Fennic. Plus, I like morally gray Boba.
I honestly thought that’s what Din would be before the show started but he’s just a Mando dad. A Boba show can have a totally different feel than Din’s show.

If you work for vile gangsters and fascists you're evil. Personally, I think it's pretty cut and dry.
I think at best his alignment would be Neutral Evil.
