The subscriber variant cover for Empire Magazine's April 2023 issue highlights #TheMandalorian Season 3 and features a familiar helmet on the bottom right – one just like #BobaFett but with different scuffs and a narrowed t-visor

While it's a Lucasfilm-endorsed exclusive issue, and had Lucasfilm providing assets according to the magazine editor, this cover was done for the magazine by Jacey (see https://jacey.com for an incredible portfolio) and it may or may not be a confirmation that Fett has a moment or two in Season 3, beginning March 1st

Bandai's 1/12 Scale "#TheMandalorian" #BobaFett is coming this week in Japan and expected for September in the U.S.

Like the 2015 version, it's a plastic model kit and not a toy with a lot of assembly required; while it has snap-together (no glue) parts including variant hands, you'll find plain color pieces out-of-the-box and applying decals may need tweezers

This #TheMandalorian #BobaFett rendering for #StarWars: Legion was recently revealed

During a recent stream for Atomic Mass Games's MiniStravaganza, it was hinted he'd be a Rebel game piece, although it may be related to a new criminal unit rule

BFFC members were quick to notice: 1) perhaps the first time Fett has ever been put on the good guy side in any type of Star Wars game and 2) the Gaffi stick in his hands but with his armor on

To celebrate the 40th anniversary of "The Empire Strikes Back," Hot Toys is re-releasing its 1/6 scale "Deluxe" #BobaFett, originally out in 2018.

With retro style packaging this time around (not yet shown in the marketing imagery released yesterday), this one is expected to arrive Q1 or Q2 2021. The fine print on these images also suggests there may be other minor differences to come.

The 2018 one retailed for $267 so this 2021 one may be similarly priced, if not higher.

Helmet nod to Diamond J. Terrence for spotting the difference in the 2018 product description and the 2021 re-pack description.

"It's about a bounty hunter, after Return of the Jedi... It's all new characters... I'm actually writing part of the second season now."

Jon Favreau spoke about his Disney+ series, #TheMandalorian, with Jimmy Kimmel Live on July 11th.

Bonus: Before Jon showed his "Boba Feet" Stance socks, which was awesome, Jimmy said Boba Fett was a Mandalorian -- but in the current canon this is not correct, as he just wears Mandalorian armor. Jimmy also says "may he rest in peace," but also in the current canon he's neither dead nor alive.

Season 2 for the show was already confirmed by Fantha Tracks, who spoke with Lucasfilm's Doug Chiang who first let the news out on day one of Celebration Chicago (April 12th).

If this artwork looks familiar, you may recognize it from the first DVD release of "Empire" in 2004. That release was bittersweet for some fans because it came with the late Jason Wingreen's original voice of Fett being dubbed over by Temuera Morrison.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT: The one-of-a-kind carded rocket firing #BobaFett prototype from the 1979 Toy Fair is up on eBay at http://j.mp/1n6SN16

The auction appeared right after it was on Wednesday night's pre-taped episode of Pawn Stars (Season 10 Episode 31 "The Pawn Awakens"), where the seller (Robert) eventually rejected a $100,000 offer. (Perhaps he had to contractually wait until the show aired first?)

Looking at the history books, it looks like this very figure may have been up for auction at $100,000 in 2008 on eBay, which is when these particular photos seem to originate. Other posts suggest it's been up for sale from the same seller since 2002.

Jason Wingreen was the original voice of #BobaFett. We just learned he passed away on December 25, 2015. This is our tribute to him.

Anyone who saw "The Empire Strikes Back" in theaters or on VHS/laserdisc between 1980 and 2003 would have heard his lines. After 2004, DVD and Blu-ray releases were re-dubbed to conform to the prequels and used Temuera Morrison as Boba Fett.

Jason was born October 9, 1920. He was interviewed for Star Wars Insider #49 (May/June 2000) in which he shared this story of the role: "My agent called me and said to go over to the recording studio, where I met Gary Kurtz and Irvin Kershner. Normally, you see the face of an actor you're dubbing, so you have to lip-synch. But that was no problem here -- I could say the lines at any time. I got in position, they ran the film a few times, and I said the lines. Kershner came out and made a suggestion or two and went back in the control room, I did it again, and I was finished."

Here's a first look at a new Prototype Shogun/Hikari #BobaFett from Super7 / Funko, coming out soon! This photo comes via Chris Pirillo (@chrispirillo) who got his hands on the prototype for the prototype!

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.

Chris also shot video of his unboxing -- see http://youtu.be/MTeAWmb7Alo -- which included some digital onlookers like our friends at Yakface.com.

"Ally or Enemy" by David Rabbitte was a #StarWarsCelebration VI exclusive in 2012 "The idea came from the animated short which introduced fans to Boba Fett. It was part of the Star Wars Holiday Special, which aired in 1978 between Star Wars A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back. So the poster is meant to be what it may look like if it was filmed as a live action production. I took some creative license and redesigned Fett's lizard, just because it worked better for the poster." -- Artist's statement on http://davidrabbitte.deviantart.com/

#TriviaTuesday: Remember the surprise of seeing #JodoKast unmasked by #BobaFett?

This panel comes from the game-changing comic "Twin Engines of Destruction," which originally was published in four issues of a now-defunct #StarWars Galaxy Magazine from Topps. As you may know, Jodo Kast was a competing bounty hunter who pretended to be Boba Fett -- to whomever was paying the bounty. The comic was written by Andy Mangels, who also coined the name Jaster Mereel, which was since change up after the prequels, and even since has been coined a "legend." #

This was included in the 2013 book "Star Wars: The Blueprints," but shown at #SWCA in a much larger (but still illegible) projection regarding the newer book, "Star Wars: Costumes," which came out last year.

Vote #TeamBoba in Latest #ThisIsMadness Matchup: http://tim.starwars.com

When this match-up began, #BobaFett led with 66% of the vote. Hours later, the lead fell to 23%. Throughout Saturday, according to our monitoring, Boba climbed back steadily without irregularity to reach 39% of the vote. We had the likes of Daniel Logan, Freddie Prinze Jr., and even William Shatner giving shout-outs for Boba. Then, hours later as the United States began to fall asleep, 9% of that gain disappeared with no social media track record of any push for vote to #TeamJango.

There's one more day to vote: http://tim.starwars.com

Last year, Boba Fett had 70% of the vote when he faced Jango. Both last year and this year, the starwars.com poll appears to have used browser cookies to track votes. Deleting the cookie may be allowing repeat votes.

#ThisMonthInHistory: Marvel Star Wars #42 was published September 23 yet had a December 1980 date on the top left.

But this first comic book appearance of #BobaFett mirrored the same content in Marvel Comics Super Special #16 (bottom left; dated May 1, 1980), Marvel Illustrated Books: The Empire Strikes Back (top right; dated May 1, 1980), and Marvel Special Edition 2: The Empire Strikes Back (bottom right; dated Spring 1980). To add to the mix, you could include the U.K.'s The Empire Strikes Back Weekly #129 released August 14, 1980.

Oddly enough, despite those copyright dates, those variants contained issues #39-44, which makes us wonder which one really came first after all.

For all Boba Fett comics, see http://bobafett.com/bounty/books/comics/

(Caption updated for further clarity. Vintage comic dates on the top left were often considered back then months to pull the issue off newsstands.)

Here's a third variant cover to feature #BobaFett on the upcoming Marvel Star Wars #1. Available January 14, 2015, this one is a Zapp Comics exclusive (pictured at left) with color and B&W versions by Mike Mayhew.

The cover's layout references Marvel's The New Mutants #98 (pictured at right), which had the very first appearances of #Deadpool and artwork by Rob Liefeld (who invented Deadpool and tells us he had Fett in mind during that process). Visit http://zappcomics.com/exclusives/ to order one or both or visit their store in New Jersey.

She may be all we get when it comes to Fett-like references in the series, which just premiered its first episode and was just confirmed already for a second season. Who caught the premiere of the show on Disney XD, and who plans to catch it on VOD via iTunes or Amazon Instant?

This trade paperback release includes #BobaFett's first newspaper comic appearance. The storyline was called "The Frozen World of Ota" and was first published on June 19, 1980.

#FettFriday: The very first comic book appearance of #BobaFett is a bit of a mystery: the issue of Marvel #StarWars #42 hit newsstands in September 23, 1980 with a December 1980 date on the cover. But irregularly sized "Marvel Special Edition 2: The Empire Strikes Back" and "Marvel Comics Super Special Volume 1 #16" have the same comic within, each with Spring 1980 copyright dates. That's not all: "The Marvel Comics Illustrated Version of The Empire Strikes Back" had a release of May 1. Long story short, this cover from the comic book release is most impressive.

One of our featured fan artists is Marco Nero, who created this "Surfin' Fett" painting. You may have seen it since in a #StarWars Insider magazine, but it's originally from 1999. Nero hand painted and airbrushed everything in acrylics. The original artwork is owned by Jeremy Bulloch, the original actor behind #BobaFett.

#ThrowbackThursday: The original "Free #BobaFett" offer back in 1978. #StarWars fans thought they had until May 31, 1979 to send in four proofs of purchase to get the "fearsome interplanetary bounty hunter" who was "a new character in (the) Star Wars sequel." That action figure, not available in any store, was also never mailed out due to a concern over the rocket-firing jetpack feature.

During an AMA on Reddit this last September, Green shared that the show -- created by George Lucas -- had "39 finished episodes and around 62 finished scripts."

Either Josh Trank or Gareth Edwards may be the director for the rumored #BobaFett stand-alone feature film. Both filmmakers have gone from highly-acclaimed indie features to big-budget studio features -- with attachment to sequels for each blockbuster already. That's a huge similarity to both of their resumes.

Jeremy Bulloch portrayed the original #BobaFett. He also had a cameo as Lieutenant Sheckil, the Imperial Officer in #TheEmpireStrikesBack who uses #PrincessLeia as a human shield. "One day I was sitting around in the Boba Fett outfit, and I was asked if I would mind playing this Imperial officer, because there was nobody to play the part. I went into wardrobe, got dressed in an Imperial Officer's uniform, and played this part who now has a name in the Decipher card game, Lieutenant Sheckil. It was in the scene in Cloud City where Princess Leia says 'Luke, it's a trap' -- I drag her away. Moments earlier, you see me as Boba Fett shooting at Mark Hamill." -- Jeremy Bulloch, as quoted in Star Wars Insider #49 (May/June 2000)

In Case You Missed It: Announced on #MayThe4th, #Vans laced up with #Funko to make #BobaFett and #DarthVader figures, one of which is included if you order a pair of their $60 #StarWars skate shoes. They announced several designs, including one pair of shoes called "Boba Fett Camo" and one called "Film Collage," which just features a piece of him. The shoes and freebie ship out this June.

But buyer beware: the online store handling this all notes that they randomly pick one figure or the other, and you can't request the Fett man. They've also excluded mentioning how limited the edition is. If those odds work for you, jump on over to pre-order some shoes before they run out of the limited-edition freebies at http://journeys.com/starwars.
