It really is. I packed up my Sideshow yesterday so I could sell it on ebay, and all the while I kept thinking, "wow, this figure is really quite well done." The only criticisms I have of it are the chest armor shapes which were pretty off (not to mention the plastic backing that gave it the overall boxy look), and the too-short forearms, which I "fixed" by just not pushing the hands all the way in.


However, I love the deluxe look since that's what the original 12" Kenner figure was like. I loved that toy! To me it's second only to the ESB look, so this is the perfect Fett for me, having the best of both worlds.


Slightly off topic: I have to wonder why Joe Johnson/the designers of Boba Fett went from the colorful version of Fett in the prototype, to the shades of green version in ESB, and then back to a colorful version for ROTJ. Did Kershner feel the character would more likely have more muted colors and insist they change it?
