Topic: HEY HEY HEY! Look What I DID! (To Do With A Boba Fett Action Figure)

The third question down is mine!

For you people who can't be bothered with links.
Or are just generally too fat to move the mouse onto the link and click or copy and paste into the bar: here's what it says:

Rebelscum:(THIS IS MY QUESTION!!!!!!!!!!!!!) With all these Stormtrooper incarnations receiving unmaskable versions featuring Jango Fett Clone heads, surely it's worth making an "unmaskable" Boba Fett with a repainted Death Star Gunner head, except more grim perhaps and more scars. As Boba Fett is a popular character and the VOTC version is reaching high in the "Fan Favorite's Showdown" Poll then this would be a welcome edition and many fans and kids would buy them.

Hasbro: That would be a good figure to do at some point, and we are looking at him as a possibility in 2008.

Hear that?
POSSIBILITY!

sweet, thats a good idea for a figure

Great idea for a figure! Too bad it's already been done. http://www.bobafett.com/archives/000188.php

He said a death star gunner head not Jango Fett head. I like the idea alot, but im a big fan of morrison so i'd stick with the jango head. but if they ever did a fett figure with a diff head they should use jeremys head. I think it would be cool if they did a Fett fig of the first ideas of the looks of fett like they are for the storm troopers.

Well thats actually the 2nd or 3rd someone has referred to that and to be honest its made out of titanium its unposable and the he has eyebrows like spock's.

The reason I said Death Star Gunner head was because if you watch carefully Boba has black on his chin when he talks.

The Death star Gunner (if you;ve seen) has a kind of balaclava thing. I'm not saying it won't be a young Boba Fett but the balaclava thing would be a necessity for this figure regardless of whether they use Morrison or Tihoi.

Besides I did ask for touch ups on the death Star Gunner anyways.

(look at that and try and tell me that looks anything like Morrison.)

(Coupla Scars maybe a more grim look....That'd be perfect.)

They actually are doing a Fett figure based on the Joe Johnston "white armor" design at some point in the future, as shown here in an older news article we did.

They're also doing a "Holiday Special/Droids" version it looks like, too.

Yeah it doesnt look like Morrison, I said b4 in a previous board that he just looked like Han Solo with a Tan.

and im glad to hear about that Joe Johnston boba design i've been wanting one for so long, another idea for a cool fett figure would be the flipped boba mistake in ROTJ where his antenna is on the wrong side.

Since Hasbro is starting to do those Expanded Universe Comics 2-pack figures, like the "Crimson Empire" Kir Kanos and Carnor Jax figures, I don't see why they wouldn't do a "Twin Engines of Destruction" Comic 2-pack with Boba Fett and Jodo Kast?  The Kir Kanos and Carnor Jax are essentially the same molds that are repainted, and have different heads.  For the Boba Fett and Jodo Kast figures, they wouldn't even have to do a different head.  Basicially, it'd be just a repaint of the same figure, minus the Wookiee scalps and a different shaped rocket for Jodo Kast.  This would be an instant hot item, and fairly easy for them to make. 

I think I'll submit this question to them, because inquiring minds want to know.  :-)

I was thinking just now when looking on the Rebelscum forums. "Should I respond to what Sadriel has said here...or should I comment on it on the Fett boards...."

Well first of all you didn't have to go to all that trouble creating an account and such just to make one post. (Although perhaps you intend to do some other stuff in the future.) Cos you coulda asked me to do it for you.

Second... Well its not really phrased as a question...More of a statement, or a suggestion.
You could fix that of course by adding something on the end such as "Do you have any plans for such an item in the future?" or "Surely that kind of thing is what you are looking for in a comic 2-pack?"

Third, they haven't realeased much info on the next comic packs. So there its perfectly possible its in the pipeline anyway. Of course you could fix that simply by saying at the start or near the beginning "If its not already in the pipeline then perhaps a "Twin Engine of Destruction" pack should be high on your potential candidates for packs."

Fourth...Well to be frank you've worded it badly. Hasbro look at those boards and read the questions and the Moderator (MR Curto) sends a few off to Hasbro for the Q & A session. Basically you're referring to Hasbro in the Third Person when you should be referring to them in the second.

For instance "I don't see why they wouldn't do a....."
should probably be
"I don't see why you couldn't/shouldn't do  a....."

"easy for them to make"
"easy for you to make"
etc. etc.

Its obviously not your fault and I'm Sorry if I sounded a bit rude but it was something I thought I should bring up... Constructive Critiscism etc. etc.

Good "question" all the same.
