Let's not do Q&A format. Just post the trivia itself, e.g. highest bounty ever collected at one time: ___.

Boba Fett's helmet gives him 360 degree vision. Something that a lot of writers seem to neglect...

Boba Fett featured, in a fairly substantial part, in the Han Solo Book Trilogy.

Oh goodness. The trivia. xD

1) Fett is actually a re-spelling of the Mandalorian word 'Vhett.' Vhett means farmer. :) This means 'Boba Fett' kinda translates to 'Bob the Farmer.' Not quite as intimidating, I think. xD

2) Boba Fett's armor has been re-imagined 6 times, yet the most commonly-used version in the comics and books is the 'Special Edition' set. This set includes the ESB helmet, paired with the RotJ armor with the gray gloves.

3) Believe it or not, Boba is rarely actually depicted in the brown gloves that he wears for most of the RotJ promotional pictures.

4) Boba Fett (And Jeremy Bulloch who played him originally) is six feet tall. Temuera Morrison, who played Boba's father, Jango, however, is only 5'7".

5) As a sort of addition to the previous fact: Jango Fett weighed more than Boba Fett, according to their Bio Stats. This was supposedly because boba concentrated more on his lean muscle to remain flexible, while Jango concentrated more on his brute strength.

6) To commemorate his well-known time as Boba Fett, The dented Helmet created and presented Jeremy Bulloch with a custom armor set of the beloved bounty hunter. Bulloch has worn it on several occasions.

7) Boba Fett actually encourages people to assume he is someone other than who he really is. So many rumors have cropped up about his past, that only a select few even know half the truth. Some of these rumors were began by none other than Fett himself.

I'll add more as I find them. <<;

Here's an interesting factoid, Boba Fett is what Darth Vader was originally going to be, an intergalactic bounty hunter.

Once, he lent a set of his armor to Han Solo to uh, "pay a visit" to Thracken Sal-Solo, Han's worthless cockroach of a cousin. From Legacy of the Force: Bloodlines ;-)

Fett's antenna allows him to hack into stormtroopers helmet comms and basically use them as living listening devices. That's from Star Wars Tales From the New Republic No Disintegrations, Please.

Boba Fett was Originally going to be Darth Vader’s brother but that’s not all, Back when Boba Fett still had his Pure White Armor he was planned to be part of a “Super Storm Trooper” Class.

In addition to "Vhett" meaning "farmer", "Bora" means "job", so, Boba Fett's name would mean "Job Farmer". This may be interpreted as;   Job: Farmer
