1/6 1/6 Hot Toys - MMS - Star Wars: ROTJ - Boba Fett

[Khev]

I would laugh if I knew what you were referencing here. I'm assuming it has something to do with the Hobbit.

Close. It's the Halloween mask I wore to the local Sucker Punch convention.

You shouldn't feel ashamed of that, Khev. Let your freak flag fly!

^^^^^^^^^^ Opening night of Frozen 2 if Disney listens to current internet petition.

I decided to take the day suit off Fett. Pretty simple.




Hot Toys and Medicom....


Sideshow and Hot Toys......

Yeah, all that repression from those closeted degenerates who rail against this or that can come out in some extreme ways.

Were Fett's armor plates much closer together in ROTJ? Seems like all the ESB Fetts have the armor with wider gaps but the HT ROTJ plates are almost touching/overlapped.

Maybe in some scenes they were that close and other scenes they could have been made from popsicle sticks.

You mean like Q-Tips for the little people in the Mos Espa pod race?

The color may be off, but I gotta say it feels to me like the basic shape of the Sideshow helmet is a lot closer. The HT helmet seems a bit too long and stretched out or something.

The upper body/chest armor on the HT looks a little bit compressed compared with the sideshow one. Proportions seem really different.

I just held my HT Fett helmet up to the computer screen next to that side-by-side pic with the SSC and the HT helmet is very vertically stretched in that pic. It doesn't look like that in-hand.

That's not to say the HT helmet sculpt is correct, it's just not distorted like that pic shows.

It's the issue with the rise of cellphone cameras in the past 5+ years in forums like this - people constantly saying "it looks so off!" but it's just lens distortion. Using an actual camera with a slightly zoomed-in "real" optical lens (as opposed to the wide angle lens and digital zoom of smartphones) is the only way to make a fig look like it does in-hand.

These Star Wars figures are coming out fast.
Only yesterday it was Leia I was picking up.
Now I'm messaged that Boba had arrived.

He looks great. Went for the Sarlacc pit version.
Should be picking this guy up in the morning.

Thanks for all your effort with the comparison pics. SS still looks good and does hold the ESB feel!

Boba Fett fits right in with the "scum and villany".

Still need those customs for my jabba diorama.....

 

[Bantha5]

Picked this up today at a local comic book shop. Paid $200 and he threw in that new sideshow coffee table book. Had to make my choice between the Fett and the Sandtrooper they had. Both were $200.

My Boba lack of color printing
Note that the helmet is no accurate printed color

Thanks for the comparison pics, scofield!

You can tell when doing the accessory tools for Fett, HT was just like No one cares and neither do we...

Fair enough. And I have seen some pics on here where the HT proportions seem to look really good. I just happen to think the SS Fett is pretty underrated as well.
