Fett Unmasked - Would Boba Fett really unmask? (Page 1 of 6)

I dont think so, only if its totally necessary would he do it in private. I mean, whats the big deal anyway? I mean its smart and all, but if anyone unmasks him when he doesnt want them to, they'll say "Hey your a stromtrooper!!" and he'll cover his rep by saying, "yes I am just a stormtrooper....Im not the real Boba Fett.....". Does anyone know what Im trying to say?

Wow, a newbie that has a good grammer. Im impressed. Far better mine, but I think that I can agree with you on this one. He would probably kill them. None of Fett's enemies have ever seen his face and I dont think that he wants to start. I mean like if someone took a picture of him unmasked secretly and show it to the world, then who ever would see it would be like, "This isnt right! This is just a stormtrooper!".

And BTW: dude, you stole my name! check in the Dialogue section in "My Username". You'll see.

Chewbacca pulled Fett's helmet off, and Fett did not kill him (unless Fett has WAY to much time on his hands )

I think that it happened in the "Dark Empire" series.

No...not really, he didn't.  It was somewhat of an irony bit, as the Wookiee then jams his jetpack or something and he goes flying up and away...
He does get one cool scene in that graphic novel where some Dark Jedi try to pull the Force on him and he just shoots them...something like that.

T-Shaped Visor, welcome to the boards. A quick note in editing your posts here: please don't post the same subject line in two places. I'm editing this one to address the question you're asking more clearly. Please note for next time.

Well Miba you're right.I also believe that putting aside that Boba is the best bounty hunter,he is also a human.When he's in Slave1 it's right to think that he's armorless.Slave1 is his home,and he feels relaxed when he is not having a mission,so he takes off his mask and armour and enjoys the few moments of quiet and peace before the next massacre...

Fett wouldn't unmask himself in public or anything...everyone knows that. He does it to protect and maintain his identity a secret. I think he would do it...if he absolutely had too, but he wouldn't do it even if Vader or even ol' palpy himself asked him too.

I don't think he would unless he had to. But, I can't think of a situation where he would have to do that though. Of course, Fett would probobly never be caught in a situation like that anyway.

Chewie was killed on Serenpidal when Anakin was forced to leave him behind. Serenpidal was destroyed by the Vong when they used their doven basal to drag it's moon into the planet.

Before Ep. II, I would have said that he takes off his helmet all the time in public in order to go "incognito" and do mundane things, like grocery shopping.  But now that he looks like the clones, I don't know.  It would cause some difficulties.  Then again, I think he looks different enough from the clones (my personal opinion) that he might not be recognized.

Has anyone considered the idea that maybe Boba Fett wouldn't unmask because he feels the mask IS his face?

(I mean, he's said that in TEOD, after all)

He can't rely on his own face to shape his identity because it's not unique to him and his father anymore--everyone has his face, so he needs a new one. One that only his father could have shared.

But perhaps he felt that the mask is his "professional face," not necessarily his private one.  Just an idea.
