Re: Boba Fett (new version)

They filmed the original scene using a human "Jabba" in '77 and the real Jabba was CGIed in as well as Boba Fett in the SE/

Boba wasn't CGI in the 97 SE, he was played by an ILM staffer, Mark Austin.

I meant he was digitally put into the scene in the ANH shot.

Or green screened, either way Boba was added to an already shot scene in the ANH edition where new scenes were shot for ROTJ palace scenes.

Anybody have really nice/clear pics from SDCC? I see a few that are really nice but the reflections from the display glass can get annoying

I'm holding off for SS pics now. Not necessarily for better pics, but for the PO!!

I hope I'm wrong, but for some reason, I'm not expecting this for PO until Spooktacular.

Re: Boba Fett (new version)

Fett was announced in May and shown at SDCC. So should be reasonable to think "not to long now". But SS has not been reasonable the past time....

MYC, every time I see you ask about a PO, I immediately think "why doesn't he just build his own?" I would build my own, but it would like the claymation characters from the 60's...

announcing and showing mean absolutely nothing...especially when it involves SW pieces

give it a try Dennis ! its actually fun if you invest some time in it and be patience while improving over time

But in some cases.. like this Boba. some things are just very difficult to do from scratch .. Boba has a lot of accessories ..its a very hard character to achieve and SSC nailed it ..

Any idea on the ht? 28inches?

Re: Boba Fett (new version)

Judging from that base, it's going to be really tall.

Re: Boba Fett (new version)

If they are true to scale a couple of things come into play. Fett himself is of smaller stature and this piece he has his knees bent going in a downhill motion. However that base definitely adds to overall height. My guess is 24" to the tip of rangefinder.

Re: Boba Fett (new version)

E helmet pinch on this is pretty bad seeing it in person. Still a great overall piece but SS sucks with Mando helmets.

Re: Boba Fett (new version)

From the pics I've seen I thought the helmet was better than the old one?

It wouldn't take much to be better than the first PF helmet. That thing is bad from all angles.
