As of last week on October 23, Lucasfilm has a new trademark filing for the word mark “Boba Fett,” adding upon the still “live” filing from 2010, following numerous others “dead” ones since 1978.

Here’s the 1982, covering sleeping bags to bedspreads:

And here’s the 1978 filing, simply mentioning action figures:

What do you think it might mean for the original trilogy bounty hunter, rumored to appear in The Mandalorian Season 2, which begins this Friday?
