Lost in the Kenobi announcements. It didnt get a lot of pub. I think it?s cool.

2 repacks and a kenobi for 50 bucks.

i'd say that kenobi is repainted but i dont care enough to look it up or be sure about it.

there's so much air in this box. weapons are separated in three white tissue paper pouches. there's nothing for these stormtrooper heads to rest on other than the ground (as an accessory they dont make sense. AND inexplicably they have neck ball pegs.)

take these stupid helmets, take the stupid jet pack effects, and it's a 13 dollar figure. oh my god. if it didnt have soft goods cape thing i think i'd be pretty pissed. i was dreading this figure coming, honestly. im not surprised how im not really thrilled with the value/cost of it.

the first positive thing i can think of is i can replace the super rotj fett figure i keep on my tv stand in my bedroom with it and put that one at my work desk for something cool to look at all day long and it's standing next to my first release walmart mando/baby yoda figures.

the second positive, is i made the right choice not preordering the other 26 dollar fett figure.

It's Boba Fett - it'll sell at any price. That's the sad fact.

I think the heads at least have a use for plopping them on your standard Stormtrooper figures for diversity. But otherwise, they should have been dumped.

For $26 they should have dropped the silly exhaust items and stormtrooper helmets and adding in his THRONE.

It's sad that my cardboard Jabba's Palace has to have the Hallmark Boba on throne ornament as the centerpiece of a Boba's Throne Room scene (it's near TVC sized, too, so it works).

Got my "this is coming soon" email about mace windu. How long after getting that email do things usually show up? That day?

"the boba fett tax" is what it's called. i'd be fine with the throne, but on the same token, i'd pass because i dont have any use for anything but the figure.

the thing is it looks like hasbro isnt into the idea of making fett not a regular figure now. i'd be happy with a single card no alternate unmasked fett figure. but this 26 bucks is the only way im getting a present day fett at all.

Well, according to Hasbro, it's the amount of "paint apps" on Boba's armor that makes him (and Cobb Vanth) "deluxe" figures. Which is total bullshit. Black Series Boba Fetts and TVC Boba Fetts have released in the past 2 years at regular retail prices. But Cobb Vanth with just the torso armor and helmet is "deluxe"? Nope.

Right?? Nnnnnooooooppe. Not even a little interested in deluxe at either scale. Even on sale it might not be enticing.
