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

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

I stand corrected. I went back a few pages and saw it is the same stuff from when it was put up for PO.

This is a bad sign as i was hoping for a little more and I have little hope we will get more with the Darth Maul release now which sucks because I was going to get him.

Just unboxed him, here is a cell phone shot.

I'll pull the real camera and strobe out this weekend.

Looks good - colors look darker or whatnot....

damn, I don't know if these picture make the decision easier or harder

Would me nice if someone could post pics of both old and new side by side.

So other than giving his flight suit the correct blue color, pretty much nothing else has changed. Glad I passed.

Is the Vest like the Proto one? Removable individual armor plates? Doesn't look as Boxy as V1 did. and they did use the protos missle -

Do you have the 1st release? what are the scalps like on this one?

It appears as though there is no weathering on the clothing, or is that just the photo?

Could you do me a favor and post a picture of the box he came in?

Im awaiting mine patiently and just wondering if they redid the box also or if its just a reuse.

Thanks.

I already have the original SS EX but am leaning towards getting this version as well. The positives of this one that I'm seeing - the body seems better proportioned (making the vest and chest armor fit better?), the braids are improved, grappling hook rocket, and the flight suit is blue. I'll just put this new BF on the old Carbon Freeze Chamber base and give my 10 year old the old BF with the new base. Of course the second I get the new one, HT will announce their ESB version.

According to the specs it's the same body as the original version: Prometheus 1.1.

Judging by the photos I prefer the original version that I have. The suit on the new one looks barely weathered, whereas the old one was nice and grubby.

The shape of the pocket flaps also looks wrong on the new one.

 

[Hask]

Its weathered but my camera is not great

 

[Asta]

But not as well as the first one.

Same body? Oh well. Thanks for talking me off the ledge then. I guess I was desperate for more BF to fill the void until my ESB PF arrives. Thanks for the info and saving me a couple hundred bucks.

One's too blue, the other's too gray.... seems like a wash there. New one has the same problems as the original, except its got longer pants.

But the new one looks like it has a smaller head.
