"I was sitting in a meeting with George, doodling on a piece of paper while taking notes. He was talking about Hoth, and I was thinking about a costume for that. When George saw this sketch, he said, 'that would make a good bounty hunter. Develop it and make it a guy with all kinds of gadgets on his suit – rockets and so forth – to defend himself with.'" – The Art of Ralph McQuarrie (2007)

Slave I#ThisDayInHistory: Ben Burtt, responsible for the sound effects of #BobaFett and his ship, was born on this day in 1948.
"To create the sound for the Slave I, Ben Burtt did what he always did whenever he had to create a sound for a spaceship: look at how the ship was designed, how it looked like, how fast it would move, and what it could do. For the takeoff sound of the Slave I, Burtt combined a trumpet's whine with the horn of his own 1971 Dodge Duster while it was on a desert road." -- StarWars.com
In this clip, he's shown with Duwayne Dunham (left) who wore the Prototype Boba Fett costume for a screen test, hosted by Ben.

"What I remember about that day is it was incredibly hot. I'm not just talking about the suit, I'm saying that day in San Anselmo was really hot. ... Nobody knew about Boba Fett at that point. ... I would imagine that [for] most people seeing the two, they just figured it was a new character aligned with Vader. We were at the front end of the parade; we were leading the whole thing. We just walked side by side down the street. It was a little funny."

Here he is shown here with Jeremy Bulloch, the original actor behind #BobaFett, in a shot captured by Gugge Zelander.
On Facebook, Jeremy shared the following: "He was an amazing person who only two weeks ago was greeting fans and signing autographs at LFCC - we will all miss him greatly - what a superstar he was."
Kenny was born August 24, 1934. He was 81 years old.

Ira Keeler#FettFriday: Fett's Sarlacc-proof helmet!
This is a rare Polaroid photo of #BobaFett's stunt helmet, care of ILM's Ira Keeler, in an unpainted state.
The 501st Legion's Golden Gate Garrison captured and shared an interview yesterday with the legendary special effects artist in a video shared on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0chd8qqFAns
Ira describes how the entire Boba Fett costume was made of this kind of kitchen-style rubber for the scene where Fett falls into the Sarlacc Pit.
When Ira ponders the name of a colleague from the production, he's surely referring to Glenn Randall Jr., who also wore the Boba Fett costume for some of the stunts, along with Dickey Beer and Bob Yerkes.

As you may know, before Boba Fett had his distinct look for "Empire," his costume evolved from a white supertrooper concept-turned-prototype. Many #StarWars collectibles recently have done this variant look, including a recent Walgreens exclusive (also from Funko) with the all-white Boba Fett.

According to notes shared by director Dave Filoni back in 2014 on StarWars.com, here are some specifics on the #Mandalorian: "The cheeks [in the helmet] lack the cutout like a Bo Katan helmet and are more traditional in shape like Boba Fett's. ... The pants are more of a cargo pants, they call back to original Boba Fett somewhat. They are a bit more snug than Boba's loose fitting pants, but note the baggyness at the knees, so they are not really skin tight." The second season of the show, which will include Darth Vader and others, resumes this Fall.

Excerpt: "While most of the film's costume design originated in England, Ralph McQuarrie and [Joe] Johnston designed the Boba Fett outfit at Industrial Light and Magic in California. The costume was built at EMI in London, and then shipped back to Johnston to be painted. Originally the Boba Fett costume was intended to be worn by a squad of supercommandos, troops from the Mandalore system armed with weapons built into their suits. But the costume was adapted for the Boba Fett character by aging, denting, and adding a colorful paint job to one of these suits, while keeping the wrist lasers, flying backpack, and rocket darts originally intended for the supercommandos." #

View on Instagram#TriviaTuesday: #BobaFett's pre-production costume gloves had circles. By the time of his theatrical debut in "Empire," those patches -- which derive from authentic U.S. Army -- were removed in favor of a simpler design.

This year we tweaked our very own stencil design, improving upon the Master Replicas publicity photo we love, while sticking with the chopstick for the antenna. If you dig it, let us know and we'll open source the effort, which took us just under two hours.
Also, please share your #Halloween pumpkins and costumes with us all day and night at http://twitter.com/bobafettfanclub, http://facebook.com/bobafettfanclub, or anywhere else with a #BobaFett hashtag.

View on Instagram#FettFriday: Concept art for #BobaFett's ship, Slave I, sketched in 1979 by Nilo Rodis-Jamero, who was instrumental in its design.
Nilo was the assistant art director and visual effects creator on "The Empire Strikes Back" and costume designer on "Return of the Jedi." This sketch was most recently re-published in "The Making of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back" (2010).
"Joe Johnston showed me some of the ideas he had for Boba Fett, and I remember asking myself what his spaceship would look like. I remember seeing a radar dish and stopping to sketch it very quickly to see if I could get something out of it. The original design I had was round, but when you looked at it from the side, it became elliptical. For some reason, when I drew it, George thought it was elliptical, so that's what it became. When we were building the ship at ILM, somebody looked at street lamps and pointed out that they look like Boba's ship. So everyone began to think that was where I got the idea for the design."

Note the helmet shown here still has the "jai'galaar'la sur'haii'se" (Mando for "Jaig eyes") which designer Joe Johnston later removed for Fett's official debut in #StarWars "The Empire Strikes Back."
