1/6 Hot Toys 1/6 Boba Fett ESB Version

[ZE_501]

We want snowtrooper reissue.

Given Vader and Fett in the vintage-themed box, I'm guessing this will happen.

I jumped on the waitlist for boba last week. Wonder how that’ll play out now

 

[Sixth Scale Man]

I might just pick this up.

I passed on the first one as I have the SS version, my first 1/6 figure so sentimental value.

You can never have enough Boba's right. Hmmm.

Same here! I let the first HT Boba go coz the SS was the first 1/6 as well. Tempted now though.

I can see a couple more surprises announced for ESB 40th anniversary before year's end. Snowtrooper? maybe. Other possible candidates are Yoda, Bespin Han and now the teased Bespin Escape Leia.

Where are you seeing the new box?

Advertised as 40th anniversary implies vintage style window box i guess.

I bet it?s a guarantee. Easy money and they can even up the price. I would grab 3 more.

I have never seen a figure vanish so fast like Snowtrooper

I believe that's what's advertised on HT social media...

Oh good I was worried that you might actually post a helpful link or something. Phew!

 

[Getter Dragon]

Has anyone noticed any changes/improvements from the previous release or is this just a lazy cash grab?

Do you doubt the veracity of my claim, sir?

They look like the exact same photos with a new border around them.

I just want to see the damn box, lol.

I checked Facebook and don't know what other "social media" you speak of. Sounds like witchcraft of some kind...

On another note has the visor been tweaked for this release? I feel like it's a little more accurate than I remember previously seeing from HT.

Actually is it just me or does the visor look totally different in these two shots?

With Hot Toys advertising Boba Fett anew in the wake of other re-releases with vintage boxes, surrounded in these images by the very same vintage-inspired graphic design -- one may safely deduce that Boba Fett will be given the same treatment. Elementary!

(Errr...Instagram.)

Boba seems to be a character that Hot Toys is milking every last bit of. I passed on the ESB version initially as I have the ROTJ version, but maybe I’ll end up getting the 40th Anniversary packaging edition.

 

[ebor]

This will be a straight up re-release in new packaging.

This will be a straight up re-release in new packaging.

and most likely higher price

PO'd at Sideshow. One reissue I'm happy they're doing.

 

[yodasan]

I guess this 40th anniversary version is no different than the existing ESB Fett "rerelease" ?

Apart from the box of course

those two shots are miles apart.


unless you discount voodoo.....

Dang it I bought the deluxe Boba earlier this year (for almost retail) but if this release is more accurate...
