How it started vs. how it's going

On the left is a Mythosaur by Brian Rood published in "The Bounty Hunter Code: From the Files of Boba Fett" (2013) and on the right is a Mythosaur in the latest canon Star Wars encyclopedia (2024)

Going further back, Mythosaurs were first (retroactively) depicted as far back as Marvel Star Wars #69 (1982) with the skull symbol originally being uniquely on Boba Fett's shoulder armor

Jeremy Bulloch

Before the cameras rolled on #BobaFett actor Jeremy Bulloch in "Return of the Jedi" (shown top center in a candid moment circa 1982), at least three other stand-ins were on set in his place: Quentin Pierre, Roy Beck, and Jack Dearlove

As noted on various call sheets for the original film, well documented when they go up for auction by Prop Store, these actors were stand-ins for several characters and even on screen, like Quentin was one of the Bespin guards escorting Solo in Carbonite for Fett in "Empire"

It's unknown if any of them suited up for camera or lighting tests, but nice to appreciate their role in production history

Dickey Beer

Happy birthday Dickey Beer!

Dickey was one of four #BobaFett stuntmen involved with filming the Sarlacc Pit scene; he was mostly paired up with Glenn Randall Jr. when filming in Arizona in 1982, whereas the other two were used for a couple of extra close-ups filmed elsewhere

The "The Empire Strikes Back" and "#StarWars Saga - I.Q. Test" paper cups by Dixie featured #BobaFett and his ship, Slave I, back in 1981 and 1982 respectively. Boba Fett also appeared on some of the packaging, as well as on the "Bounty Hunters" cup in the "Return of the Jedi" set.

Photos by Erica aka wookiee_cookiee, shared with us on our public photo group on Flickr.

In the 80's, Dixie was a product of the American Can Company. The brand is now owned by Georgia-Pacific.

Princess Leia

Luke Skywalker

#FettFriday: No #AprilFools joke here -- this is Leia and Luke both saying "#BobaFett" aloud in "The Empire Strikes Back."

Needless to say, this moment was cut from the final film, leaving it until "Jedi" for the bounty hunter to be named aloud on screen -- aside from the "Holiday Special" in 1978 and "E.T." in 1982.

To see the whole thing, you'll need Bonus Disc 2 from the #StarWars "Complete Saga" Blu-ray set, which is available on Amazon: http://amzn.to/1MFG9l0.

(Helmet nod to Marcelo Zuniga on YouTube for amending the raw footage with music to feel more like the final film. We also dialed down a loud buzzing sound effect in this excerpt.)

#FettFriday: #BobaFett in "E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial"

Elliot names all of his #StarWars action figures for his friend from outer space. At 28 minutes and 53 minutes into the film, Fett is mentioned by name. Since the film premiered in 1982, this marked the first time on the theatrical screen we heard the name "Boba Fett." He wasn't mentioned by name in The Empire Strikes Back (1980), but he was in Return of the Jedi (1983). Thanks to killerofheroes who shared our Fettpedia page on E.T. at http://j.mp/1Q200Zz on Reddit's "Today I Learned", which climbed the charts last week and introduced just about 10,000 Redditors to BFFC.

Return of the Jedi

#ThrowbackThursday: #BobaFett publicity photo for "Revenge of the Jedi," which of course was later re-named to "Return of the Jedi." For the big spenders out there, this 35mm slide from 1982 is actually a crowd-funding perk for a new film by James Kahn, who wrote the original 1983 novelization for "Jedi." Donate $500 to the project at http://igg.me/at/wrongsidebob for a one in eight chance to get it.
