I like ROTJ, for the wrist rockets

Seeing that I just LOVE Mandalorian armor, I like them both but the color is more saturated in the ESB so I vote for ESB. Not that I have the right pictures or know how, but I think a side by side comparison would be cool.

I prefer the armour in Return of the Jedi…though to be honest they both look funky :D

What is this?  Mando'ade eye for the Aruetiise guy? 

Hmmmm...

I think I like the solid colored jet pack from ESB, but I like the red/rust colored gauntlets from Jedi.  Kind of goes with the red on his t-visor.  Stands out better.  Although, Jaster Mereel's color scheme, looks better than that.  Pretty much the same as Jedi Fett color scheme, but with red shoulder bells (to match the gauntlets and visor), instead of orangish/yellow.  Not a big fan of the yelllow color on the armor.

Devin, that looks like a model, vs. the actual costume. And how about a similar image of the ROTJ armor for us to draw a fair judgment after comparison?

Good question. Let's hope this topic can find out for us. :) And then be better grounds for deciding "coolness."

But the differences between ESB and ROTJ armor are...

EMPIRE
* Gauntlets: green
* Jetpack: green
* Suit: light blue
* Gloves: grey and white gloves
* Cape: two-tone brown

JEDI and NEW HOPE: SPECIAL EDITION
* Gauntlets: red
* Jetpack: teal, yellow, red, and white
* Suit: faded/weathered white
* Gloves: grey and white
* Cape: green

I like the ROTJ color scheme better myself.
None look bad - and the ESB version seems to match better.
But I still say ROTJ.

It's a tossup for my.  ESB one looks more uniform and efficient, and looks more, well, uniformly coloured (repeating my previous point).  However, the ROTJ scheme looks more mercenary-ish, as if it's been accumulated over the years, or as if it had to be replaced or something like that.  It makes it look like he's had to improvise and adjust more.  And with all of that said and done, I say I like them both about equally, although with a slight preference to the ESB armour.  :)

ESB:

sry the pics r so huge...

November 21, 2007 7:24 pm #

ROTJ, he looks more messed up, the gauntlets are better. I think he looks more weatherd and therefore better

The battle-worn look is cool, but I think the ESB one looks good with its uniform design.  However, having known the ROTJ one more, I'm inclined to change my previous answer, and say ROTJ...Man, I'm a flipflopper.  Okay, so long as it's Fett, it's good.

Since this is the BFFC... we have an pretty authoritative guide to these costumes:

But it could be better. :) Side-by-side shots would be nice.

All that I can see that was different was the gauntlet color (and the jet-pack it different?), so why the debate?  I't Boba, we love him whatever he's wearing!

(I like the red gauntlets better, by the way  :D )

I prefer the armor in ESB the blue jumpsuit really catches my eye.

ROTJ for me as well. Although I'll have to agree with X (don't remember your name, sorry!), I don't like at all the yellow parts. It's like he's working in a circus, too colorfull for me..
I prefer Jango's armor, btw..
