1/6 Sideshow Collectibles - Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back - Boba Fett

[ColombianLove41]

They are literally two COMPLETELY different Fetts...

Yeah, and some people will choose one over the other. I was just wondering who was thinking what?

To my eyes this one looks better than the original (prefer the green and baggier pant legs), but wow, $25 more and substantially less accessories, plus a super bland base.

To your question, Colombian, if I were in the market for Fett I'd probably go with HT's despite preferring the ESB version. Just a better chance it'll come out like the prototype with fewer issues. I do want an ESB Fett but will wait I guess the 3 or so years it'll be until HT does it.

Yep.

Sideshow wants more $$$ out of their previous investments...

Fett was like an extra in three scenes then flushed down a loo in VI and in IV he became a simple lackey.
I've never thought about how different they looked. How different is the CGI one?

Curious that this Fett is listed elsewhere as being improved, but no mention of a change in colour, tailoring or belly plate sculpting on Sideshow's own page.

Yet with their re-released Vader they make a big deal of the changes:

...featuring newly sculpted elements, new costume, a new lightsaber blade and our hexagonal figure base.

Finely tailored costume featuring a two-piece fabric body suit, quilted vest, pants, undershirt

...

Newly sculpted codpiece

...

Eight (8) newly sculpted interchangeable hands including:

I see that but I was asking due to having not seen many products from Sideshow's Star Wars line. I want my first Boba and I'm swaying towards the Hot Toys version. I guess I was looking for a little guidance

Hot toys.... The answer is always Hot Toys.

Nice. I'm looking forward to pics and reviews, maybe a comparison with the first release.

You were likely looking at the older version. This is the newer one that you ordered.

Yeah, when they originally released the pics and specs, all that stuff wasnt there.

It was just the stand and hands, at least I think it was qhen i preordered it back in november.

Too much stuff coming out lol

Ah gotcha, yeah most of those things are part of the actual outfit. They slip into little pockets, etc.
