Re: Sideshow New Boba Fett Premium Format Return Of The Jedi

Gonna just puncture my own cape hole while Sideshow responds. I am assuming this is the correct movie accurate placement of where it's supposed to be?

Same. Such a shame we have to do this. They should replace all our capes, cuz that's just poor qc in my opinion. Where is the "you only had one job" meme

Lmao yup exactly. This is rediculous.

That's exactly where I thought I had a hole in mine. Maybe I just poked the pin through the seams and it wasn't actually a hole.

With the help of my Buddha Homer, I unboxed the new Sideshow Collectibles Boba Fett (ROTJ) version.

First impressions:

It's an awesome statue but some there are some negatives. Negatives: Not having a hole in the cape to put the peg in. The chest armor looks off for some reason. Grenade launcher rubs against his gauntlet when you switch out his hands.
Positives: Helmet is not plastic and is pretty heavy. Great paint app on the helmet too. Magnets are very strong! Quality materials used for the outfit. Cool looking pose.

Hope you guys enjoy the video! Help me get to my goal of a 100 subs before the year ends.. Thanks for taking the time in watching my video!

I noticed that the right side of his gun scope of his right arm has some white paint. I thought it was just mine but I also noticed it in theparadoxnerd's video. Is this some "movie accurate" thing I was unaware of or just their artistic choice? It just looks so out of place. I wonder if all are like that.

I'm thinking of getting the old one and having someone make the costume dirty like the prototype for this one was like.

I have to tell you, this PF is really growing on me. In person, none of the stuff that I was concerned with from photos here is an issue. The "skinny" legs actually look movie accurate and I was able to adjust the knee guards and "baggy" up the upper leg of the pants a bit which helped greatly. The paint detail is very good and the chest armor never has bugged me. All in all, very happy to have this in my collection.

Looks good man! Yes I agree, I was worried about the "skinny" legs but I also think it's movie accurate. Overall a good statue and definitely won't be disappointed with him. I just wish he wasn't around the 550 plus range and I would have priced him around 480 imo. Statue prices keep going up and it doesn't look like they are going down anytime soon. Congrats on the pickup!

Yeah, I have to admit, your futzing helped this piece a lot.
Also, your photos look great
& holy cow, I love your display setup!!!

Re: Sideshow New Boba Fett Premium Format Return Of The Jedi

Agreed, Boba looks very good. I still prefer the ESB version but if I had missed out on it I would have been happy with this one.

Re: Sideshow New Boba Fett Premium Format Return Of The Jedi

Awesome I'm more excited to get him in now.

Converted my payment plan into full payment before the weekend. Now withdraw my account SS and get it shipped.
Just 2 noticeable flaws on this, the armor gap and the steep price. That is pretty good after SS standards
