Product Description

From the Manufacturer

The vivid imagination of conceptual artist Ralph McQuarrie brought to life the characters and worlds envisioned by George Lucas. McQuarrie's paintings and drawings were instrumental in the push to bring Lucas's saga to the big screen, giving shape and form to a multitude of fantastic individuals, creatures, planets and technology encompassed in this epic tale. Developed in collaboration with McQuarrie himself, this remarkable action figure series pays tribute to the man whose art defined some of the most memorable characters in film history. Boba Fett was one of the first new characters to be designed for The Empire Strikes Back. The costume began as a Mandalorian supercommando suit and went through various designs, as well as being aged, dented, and painted to give it a battle-scarred appearance. Its final look hides a plethora of built-in weapons ¿ and the identity of the ruthless bounty hunter it encases. Action figure comes with interchangeable helmet, weapon, flame burst and coin.

Product Description

Set in 3 ¾â? scale, the McQuarrie Boba Fett owes to a concept influenced by early Darth Vader designs. Described as having Mandalorian super commando armor, this version of the Boba Fett features a blaster pistol and a gauntlet-mounted flamethrower. His helmet is slightly more detailed but less sinister than the definitive Boba Fett, the armor looking more similar to that of a Stormtrooper. An exacting, code-driven predator, Fett played heavily on the fringe of the SW storyline. Though Fett was just a sprat during the Clone Wars, he would eventually inherit both his Mandalorian armor and the Slave-1 from Jango Fett. Among the supplemental storylines, there were wide-ranging scenarios involving Fett after his reemergence from the digestive soup of the Sarlacc. Over the course of intertwining stories, Fett outmaneuvered IG-88 and trumped and humiliated Bossk a number of times.

Boba Fett as envisioned by McQuarrie. It's a fine look into the history of Star Wars and creates a lot of "what-if's" along the way. He comes with an alternate helmet,a hidden gun in his belly - must be a real thin guy, a pistol with stock that fits into an over-sized holster on his right side, a flamethrower with detacheable flame, and of course, the 30th Anniversary Star Wars coin.

It's a fine look into the past, save for the fact that he's bone white - well he is a concept figure - and the flame-thrower extension is heavy enough that it bends out of shape if you leave it attached with the arm raised.

I love the idea behind this. It's so seldom that we see anything regarding Ralph McQuarrie's concept art for the original Star Wars. These figures are a great representation of what might have been. However, I'm not so crazy about Boba - he's essentially a white Boba Fett, which isn't as interesting as the final green armor he wears in the movies.The figure itself is highly posable and has great detail.
