It presents Boba in a more cartoonish super-deformed pose, sporting his Return of the Jedi version armor.  This comes as a boon for Fett collectors&#8217;, as you would originally have to pay at least $150 to obtain this statue.<\/p>\n<p>These figures were originally limited to 2004 pieces and were only available at World Character Convention 18 in Japan, back in 2004.  It came in a special collector&#8217;s box, which had a die-cut Mandalorian Skull window.  StarWarsShop.com is also packaging their super-deformed Fett statue in the same type of display box.  <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/photobucket.com\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i9.photobucket.com\/albums\/a85\/Mandalorian_Boba_Fett\/ce548e23.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Medicom had later released a variant version of this figure, with Boba in his Empire Strikes Back armor.  However, this came in a plain green marketing box.  This variant statue was also hard to obtain and ran about $175 on ebay.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/photobucket.com\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i9.photobucket.com\/albums\/a85\/Mandalorian_Boba_Fett\/WorldCharacterConvention2004vinylfe.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>So, if you&#8217;ve been looking for this rare Japanese collectible, you can now save yourself some headache and quite a bit of money.  It&#8217;s a safe bet that this, like all other Boba Fett statues, will be a popular seller.  <\/p>\n<p>Links:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jdoqocy.com\/8j98dlurlt8IEGB9E8A9CEIDEA\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">StarWarsShop.com<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.medicomtoy.co.jp\/\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Medicom<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>StarWarsShop.com makes Medicom&#8217;s Super Deformed Boba Fett figure available to American collectors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-250","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-collectibles"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bobafettfanclub.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/250","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bobafettfanclub.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bobafettfanclub.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bobafettfanclub.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bobafettfanclub.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=250"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.bobafettfanclub.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/250\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13748,"href":"https:\/\/www.bobafettfanclub.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/250\/revisions\/13748"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bobafettfanclub.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=250"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bobafettfanclub.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=250"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bobafettfanclub.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=250"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
