Slave I concept art by Nilo Rodis-Jamero from 1979

Note on the top left how one variant spelling back then was "Boba Fet," which can also be seen on some concept art pieces by Joe Johnston

The novelization for #TheEmpireStrikesBack written by Donald F. Glut was published on this day in 1980

Based on the story by George Lucas and the screenplay by Leigh Brackett and Lawrence Kasdan, it's a little different and shorter

The author notes Boba Fett as having a black-marked silver helmet, which might stem from the evolution of the all-white "prototype" armor and how we ended up with the silver-armored Ben Cooper costume for kids, versus his look in his first film

Also, this book may be the first mention of "Slave I" in published writing, as it was previously written out on concept art as "Boba Fett's ship"

Marvel Star Wars #42 started showing up in comic shops as early as this day in 1980

Often considered the first appearance of #BobaFett (although that may be incorrect – see https://daily.bobafett.com/278/), Dengar, Bossk, IG-88, and Zuckuss, as well as Slave I

Fun fact: cover dates (e.g. December 1980) used to be when they would star to pull it off the shelves, not the first in-store date – generally a few months beforehand

The Slave I cockpit for #TheMandalorian was made for the show by Riser13 (https://www.instagram.com/riser13/) and fellow team

"I was lucky enough to be on the team that built the cockpit of one of my all time favorite ships SLAVE I! It was really a 'high-five your inner child' kinda job and you best believe I was in the chair making sounds like a 10 year old before we shipped it out to set. We built this set piece for The Mandalorian and it was really cool to see how they used it on the show."

"#BobaFett - Lone Hunter" by Mike Capprotti

"I really wanted to do a darker piece that was cinematic with a lot of atmosphere and had that dusk grey/purple, blue, orange palette. My focus was on the mood and atmosphere in this one. I used existing assets for Boba and the Slave 1, but everything else in the scene was built, modeled and lit by me."

Happy birthday to sound designer Ben Burtt!

"To complete the sound effect [of Slave I], Burtt added a delay which would create an audio black hole before the twang of the sonic weapon. This was inspired by real life lightning that you often see before hearing the thunder. The source of the twang itself remains unknown and is something that Burtt prefers to keep a secret. Because it is such an unprecedented thing to have an absence of sound in a movie, the technicians who evaluated the film said that there was an audio problem with the reel which needed to be fixed." -- StarWars.com

Also, in 1979, the cost to build the Slave I (miniature) was $15,000, which adjusted for today's inflation would be over $50,000.

"He's No Good to Me Dead" by Seth Schubert

"I remember seeing The Empire Strikes Back in the movie theaters when I was a kid, and I got this 12" #BobaFett action figure shortly thereafter. Cloud City is still one of my favorite fictional movie locations. Much later, I built a model of Boba Fett's spaceship, Slave I, as seen in the background."

"The ship that carries frozen Han Solo away!"

"An exciting replica of BOBA'S spaceship. This time, the precious cargo is a simulated frozen HAN SOLO, carried into the hold via the movable ramp. Remove the side panel to place BOBA in his cockpit. Then adjust his seat between landing and flight positions - all by remote hand control. SLAVE I is ready for lift-off."

From the 1981 Kenner retailers toy catalog.

#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.

To touch up the film, Lucas spent $2.5 million ($3.7m with inflation) and ended up earning a half billion dollars when you tally U.S, worldwide, and rental gross.

This Amazon exclusive "Empire" Slave I from 2013 originally retailed for $70 and dipped as low as $35 that holiday season. It's now common to find for 3x or more retail price in mint condition.

The ship was a re-paint of an earlier "The Clone Wars" Slave I from 2010 and the Han Solo in Carbonite was a re-paint of the "The Saga Collection" version from 2006. A #BobaFett figure was not included in the box. "The Vintage Collection" intentionally had packaging to resemble the original look from 1980 with some slight changes.

The "The Empire Strikes Back" and "#StarWars Saga - I.Q. Test" paper cups by Dixie featured #BobaFett and his ship, Slave I, back in 1981 and 1982 respectively. Boba Fett also appeared on some of the packaging, as well as on the "Bounty Hunters" cup in the "Return of the Jedi" set.

Photos by Erica aka wookiee_cookiee, shared with us on our public photo group on Flickr.

In the 80's, Dixie was a product of the American Can Company. The brand is now owned by Georgia-Pacific.

#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."

#FettFriday: "Ready for Delivery" by Andrew Ravenwood. This #StarWars fan art from 2000 was the artist's first use of the #HanSolo in Carbonite model from SCiFi3d. He textured it for Bryce, the 3D landscape modeling and rendering software. Then he added #BobaFett in the foreground and considered adding Slave I to the background. "But after I started to add lights to the scene, I felt the picture would be more dynamic if I surrounded it in steam with its main focal point being Han Solo together with Fett," the artist told us in an interview.
