Interview with Tem about Boba show today!
Hot Toys make to pre-order numbers based on what we all order plus extra what shops or distributors like Sideshow think they'll sell. I doubt Sideshow will make mega orders after their lessons learnt with Ep 7 figures.
Plus New Paint Boba is on the way, and who knows what other version/s from The Book of Boba.
Yes but this is a totally different situation than the Ep7 figures since many of them went up for preorder before anyone had even seen the movie. Now people are dying for Mandalorian related figures but companies have to play catch up since Lucasfilm isn't sharing hardly anything before a season starts. Sideshow's order for this figure will be tremendous, it's already hard to find at other places one week out.
Plus we saw with the Dark Side Anakin issue early on in the pandemic, Hot Toys continued to produce that figure well after it initially launched.
I don't know...
Both deluxe and standard versions are still available on Toyswonderland, Toysbuyingagent, KGhobby, lacitedesnuages and practically everywhere in Germany.
For this price tag, I'm not sure if it's only a hot cake for hardcore or hyped fans.
Plus not everyone likes the monk look and they prefer the repainted one or the classic one.
It will be interessting to watch the development once the season 2 hype is over.
Not to forget that Marvel is slowlly getting on a roll with Wandavison, Falcon and Winter soldier, Loki show and the next cinematic wave.
Sorry, just trying to be critical...
Yeah, think it can be forgotten that a huge part of the audience may view Boba as that "bounty hunter who died in Star Wars" if they even make the connection. I'm one of the ones who was baffled by the mystique? obsession with the character and had to go read about it. 'Coz, yah know, he was a minor character who DIED. In a pit. Being digested.
That may be sacrilege to Boba fans, but there it is. But I liked Boba in Mando, and - Temuera Morrison. Loved the look. Worst case, figure I could sell, tho I don't sell my figs, so far. Had RP points and it's a fully loaded figure (gawd knows HT puts out enough thin releases - they seem to be cutting back on the number of hands, for one thing). Plus Mando and Boba together on a shelf are badass.
(Also, tho I'm an MCU fan - like OK, Falcon and Bucky; a series I am really looking forward to - but do I really need any more MCU? Raises the age-old question of "when do you STOP?" I need another Obi-Wan more than another Falcon and Bucky, even if they are in the top tier of fav MCU characters for me.)
Ok, true. I obviously forgot to consider those who got to know Boba Fett in the Mandalorian for the first time, who don't have any emotional connections to the OG trilogy and just like his apearance in the show as it is
Well, it can suck tho becoming a fan later than sooner. 'Coz then u are paying 'bay markups or second hand, not knowing what uncaring owner put their greasy fingers all over the figure u want so bad.
Like if the Boba series takes off and new fans decide they have GOT to have this set; and they end up facing insane prices.

Yup. And this is Star Wars. He?s totally gonna have a brand new suit for his own show. I?ll guarantee it
You could be right. But then that defeats the whole "sentimental" attachment he has to his armor because it belonged to his father before him.....but Disney and HT will probably say "**** it, we can make more money if he gets a new suit".
