I was five and had just watched my first Star Wars movie, AOTC. After that I was hooked. I probably watched that movie three times in theaters.
My fettish started 35 years ago with empire. The bounty hunter scene on the star destroyer gave me a taste of the Boba life. He struck me as quiet and enigmatic. With a cool uniform and awsome weapons, he is the star. Pity they would never turn the tales of the bounty hunters into a film.
I was interested in Jango first, and then found out about his son. I instantly got interested by Boba's mysterious character.
From there, I researched more about the Fetts, read more EU books, and got to know them more. Then, I picked up the action figures, and my "Fettish" started.
Galax, awesome! That's very interesting, going first from Jango then to Boba. Prior to the prequels, Boba Fett really had a whole different storyline, especially between 1995 and 2002, much of which "original fans" prefer to this day.
It all started way back when I was a kid when Empire was released in cinemas and I remember going to my local cinema to watch it and seeing all the bounty hunters all lined up, then Boba was there and I straight away i just like his whole look and he just stood out for me and from that very moment he has always been my favourite in the Star Wars universe. I have always liked all the bounty hunter characters and found them all to be really interesting, but Boba has always been the top dog.
I feel kinda lame to admit that I only recently got into the wonderful galaxy of Star Wars... I had never been interested in the series until I went to watch the 7th in theatres. After that I decided to actually watch and pay attention to the movies, instantly becoming obsessed. I am a person who loves facts, so even though I had only seen A New Hope, (And 1 & 2 on silent(I have weird friends)) for the longest time, I knew a decent amount of Star Wars facts. Out of those, I knew a little about Boba and Jango Fett. So, when first watching The Empire Strikes Back, I was able to recognise Boba Fett (Which was an achievement for me having only known the main characters and select villains). I then began looking into this interesting character and since then, the Fettish has only grown
Mine started about six years back. Before Fett, I really didn't have a favorite character, but when I got older, I realized that he was really cool. I got hooked when I saw the comics where he fights and holds his own against Darth Vader. Boba Fett is the coolest Star Wars character in existence. Period.
Well, of course I found Boba cool in 2000 at the tender young age of 7, but I think my Fettish really kicked off in 2002 when I met Jango in Attack of the Clones. He was just so fascinating to me. There's just something that to this day appeals to me. And seeing Boba as a child just really made him even cooler to me.
