September 20, 2007 11:03 am # I hope this is in the right section, but yesterday I was at Target looking through the halloween decorations and came across a small Star Wars Christmas section. So many cool things I can't even describe but I bought this decoration that you would place on a coffee table. It's very big and Is Boba Fett standing on snow. He has a candy cane in his hand that he is holding like he's gonna blast someone with it.
I believe he has a santa hat on. Behind him is Hans Solo...frozen in carbonite and is wrapped in a big red bow with a Christmas tag that says " to Jabba" I will take a picture tonight and put it up tomorrow. Everyone to target!!! Here's a website of some of the ornaments.

September 25, 2007 2:42 am # Found a link with that new ornament Sintas. It's only a colored sketch drawing, though. I found some the other day at Target. They're by Kurt S. Adler. His company did several Fett ornaments last year. They didn't have a Fett one on this trip, though, so I'll have to keep looking. Thanks for the tip, though.
Here ya go.

Looks pretty neat. Some of the other ones in the series are pretty cool, too.

On the "to" card, on Han Solo's slab....it says "To: TK-421." It's from A New Hope, after Luke and Han knock out the Stormtroopers and take their armor. The officer looks out and says, "TK-421, why aren't you at your post?"

"Suggestion: Electrocution works well. Evisceration and Decapitation are also effective, or um, so I've heard."
For all those who never found one of these last Christmas, our friends over at Entertainment Earth have answered our prayers. It's Christmas in July this year!!

All I can say is, it's about time.
Enjoy.

o ive seen that online and in stores too (at xmas time obviously).
I really think he should have kept the balster. The candy cane is a little.......silly to say the least.......and sticky :P
Really nice piece of work otherwise though
"You set a code to live by. I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted...I won't be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to other men, and I require the same from them."
Is it me, or is this about $30 more than what it was at Target last Christmas?
--Sadriel Fett (BFFC Moderator)
"I'm just a simple Fan, trying to make my way in the universe."
Yes, 30.00 is more than Target was. I just went and checked mine that I bought last year, and it was only 19.99.

Ah, the curse of jacking up the price because it's Boba Fett.

I passed over that Holiday Boba one day at Target, and when i actually planned to buy it later, it was gone. At every Target around. :(

Yeah, I've noticed that too. They're making quite a bit of Fett and Mandalorian related merchandise these last two years. Seems like you have alot of stuff aimed at the two major Star Wars costuming groups. You have all the Trooper collectibles for all the 501st guys and now alot of Fett and Mandalorian stuff for all the BFFC, Dented Helmet, and Mando Mercs guys. I was telling my wife the other day that the surge in the Star Wars costuming reminds me of when I used to go to the Sci-Fi Cons and all you saw were the two big Star Trek costuming groups. Only now it's Star Wars. You have the Federation guys, with their nice clean uniforms (Stormtroopers) and you had the rough and rowdy Klingons (Mandalorians). In the words of Information Society (or more recently, Battlestar Galactica); "All of this has happened before...and it will all happen again..." Now, I'm just waiting for a printed version of the Mando/ English dictionary or have the works of Shakespeare translated into Mando'a. You haven't experienced Shakespeare, until you've read it in it's original Mando'a.
"cuyir, dar'cuyir" ("to be, or not to be")
:D
Anyway, all the new Fett merchandise makes me think, all the more, that he might make an appearance in the Clone Wars cartoon. I can only hope. Since the animation style is different from the original Clone Wars cartoon, you know what that means? All new sculpted Animated Style Boba Fett statuettes.
:P
