40 years ago today, "Return of the Jedi" premiered in theaters
George Lucas on the DVD commentary: "[H]ad I known he was going to turn into such a popular character, I probably would've made it a little bit more exciting. Boba Fett was just another one of the minions, another one of the bounty hunters and bad guys. But, he became such a favorite of everybody's. For having such a small part, he had a very large presence. And now that his history has been told in the [prequel] trilogy, it makes it even more of a misstep that we wouldn't make more out of the event of his defeat, because most people don't believe he died anyway. I had contemplated putting in that extra shot in where he climbs out of the hole, but you know I figure that's... it doesn't quite fit in the end."

"Return of the Jedi" Weekly #83 was released in the U.K. on this day in 1985, featuring the "Jawas of Doom" cover art by Tom Palmer.
The issue itself doesn't include any Fett fiction: it has parts of Star Wars #91, Star Wars #51, and a few other stories.
"Jawas of Doom" is truly contained in Star Wars #81 and has one of the "legendary" tales of Fett escaping (and falling back into) the Sarlacc.

You can still get the 6" deluxe figure with extras at Entertainment Earth (https://bobafett.club/j2lrw) and Walmart (https://bobafett.club/ce3jx) although it quickly sold out at Hasbro Pulse, Amazon, and Target
Costume aficionados like BFFC fan Josh Whitman and Fett4Real's 1313 Studios were quick to note this promotional rendering for this figure follows the "ROTJ: SE" variant rather than the true "ROTJ," although it's still a welcome addition to a very regular use of "ESB" variant in the series

#2382: September 16, 2020
View on Instagram | Facebook | TwitterIs that #BobaFett's damaged "ROTJ" jetpack on The Mandalorian's speeder?
Fett's more colorful jetpack would also have to be damaged, consistent with the events of "Return of the Jedi." In the current canon, Boba Fett only fell into the Sarlacc and is neither dead nor alive. He's rumored to return in Season 2, but at this point it's not officially confirmed.
As media, we have access to a 2.2gb ProRes master of the trailer, versus the 24mb YouTube file, allowing us less compressed frames to put this together. The still frames are also sharpened, to compete with all the motion blur in the actual shot.

Bonus: Before Jon showed his "Boba Feet" Stance socks, which was awesome, Jimmy said Boba Fett was a Mandalorian -- but in the current canon this is not correct, as he just wears Mandalorian armor. Jimmy also says "may he rest in peace," but also in the current canon he's neither dead nor alive.

Fun fact about the new game: Electronic Art's Digital Illusions CE (DICE) scanned an actual prop Boba Fett helmet available to them at Lucasfilm Archive, giving the game's promo photos and gameplay craftsmanship even more authenticity. Fett sports his "Jedi" Special Edition costume look for the game. (Helmet nod to Ponteworks for the fun fact, who's available for top-notch commissions via ponteworks@gmail.com.) #BobaFettFanClub #PhotoOfTheDay #PicOfTheDay
