 Jango Fett

"Did you miss me?" – Jango Fett

Throwback to this 2002 TV spot for the original #StarWars: Bounty Hunter game by LucasArts, which we properly upscaled to 1080p back in 2016

ICYMI, a newly enhanced version just dropped – and we just interviewed the 2002 game's writer/director, Jon Knoles

 Joe Johnston

A rare set of Joe Johnston's #BobaFett concept art dated February - March 1978 is being sold today starting at 8am Pacific via Propstore: https://bobafett.club/tsl3x

While the set mirrors the 2010 "Artist Portfolio" from Acme Archives, we confirmed with Propstore to learn "it is likely a set similar to the one ... Acme acquired [as] their masters for their limited edition portfolio"

 Ira Keeler

On this day in 2021, Ira Keeler passed away. He was the model maker at ILM involved with #BobaFett's Return of the Jedi Stunt Armor.

While he worked on other Star Wars props, plus Indiana Jones, on autographs, Ira often wrote "Boba Fett Stunt Helmet" under his name.

 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
