My review of the PF Boba

[jstep13]

Isnt it a great piece? I got mine for a little more than that but it was the EX.

Anyways this is one of my fav pieces I have in my collection...

It really is...I actually didn't think I'd like it as much as I do.

What I think is esp. great about this and underrated is the fact that you can give him several different looks just by rotating or tilting his head.

Most PFs just look the same for everyone but this one you can actually do several different looks which is so cool.

I wish you could do that with other PFs like Vader...

BTW $180 is a STEAL. Congrats man...

Congrats! A cool piece indeed!

A little late to the show but I just picked this up for a great price ($180 shipped) and love it.

Looks fantastic from the side (except for those kinked hoses, yikes). A darn shame they couldn't do his helmet right from the front. Especially with the new Leia coming out. Fett and Leia could have looked nice together. I think Crumb would even look better next to Fett than Leia since both Crumb and Fett are relaxed while Leia is in a fighting pose.

If you have kinked hoses, just find some picture hanging wire. Pull the hoses out from the sleeves, and slide the wire in. Looks like this:

Makes the piece look better.

I still need one of these. In a nutshell, what are the main criticisms of this piece?

The body of the figure/statue is plastic.

I got my Boba for 200 dollers after tax. the articulated neck really is great, but Id still rather have that weighted feel of the rest of my PF figures on this. even 200 seemed overpriced to me. visually, its as close to perfect as your gonna get though.

The body of the figure/statue is plastic.

Yeah it isn't suitable as a paperweight, and the base is awful - which bothers me much more than the actual figure. For whatever reason the base is polystone (?) covered in rubber, the entire thing is just this spongy mess. Aside from that the figure itself is ok, the arm hoses and wookie pelts always bothered me a bit too, esp considering how they looked in person.

 

[chaikin]

a bit too lightweight with regard to the PF...
