Robert's statement on his DeviantArt post from 2011: "The design of Jango (and Boba) Fett's armour is a classic - but I decided to draw Jango in 'stealth mode' here because I wanted to see how cool I could make him look in black armour. I haven't seen this concept done before - but I think it works work well and makes an eye-catching image. I thought this might be how he could have looked in the 'Attack of the Clones' movie when he assassinated Zam Wessel on Coruscant - perhaps using a variation of his armour for when he needed to creep around! This is an entirely original depiction of the character - first drawn in pencil, then scanned in and coloured in Photoshop using a Wacom tablet."

San Anselmo Country Fair Day and Parade#BobaFett's "Pre-Production 1" costume originally featured "Jaig" eyes, which then became ears (shown here) by the time it was shown in the 1978 San Anselmo Country Fair Day and Parade
This actually wasn't a screen used costume but it was still an important evolution that helped shape his iconic look in the early years

"Johnston is #BobaFett's original conceptual designer. He has also been referred to as the 'father' of Boba Fett. Joe designed the colors and helmet for Boba. John Mollo had designed the original suit as the super trooper army of millions, but the production couldn't afford it for 'Empire Strikes Back.' Therefore, Joe made Boba a singular character with the paint job he did on him, including the damaged suit and helmet." – Joe Johnston's website (now offline, quote saved on bobafett.com)

View on Instagram | TwitterJason Wingreen was the original voice of #BobaFett. We just learned he passed away on December 25, 2015. This is our tribute to him.
Anyone who saw "The Empire Strikes Back" in theaters or on VHS/laserdisc between 1980 and 2003 would have heard his lines. After 2004, DVD and Blu-ray releases were re-dubbed to conform to the prequels and used Temuera Morrison as Boba Fett.
Jason was born October 9, 1920. He was interviewed for Star Wars Insider #49 (May/June 2000) in which he shared this story of the role: "My agent called me and said to go over to the recording studio, where I met Gary Kurtz and Irvin Kershner. Normally, you see the face of an actor you're dubbing, so you have to lip-synch. But that was no problem here -- I could say the lines at any time. I got in position, they ran the film a few times, and I said the lines. Kershner came out and made a suggestion or two and went back in the control room, I did it again, and I was finished."

Cam Kennedy#TriviaTuesday: according to "legends" (read: expanded universe), #BobaFett didn't always work for the bad guys. Some of his allure was boosted by this extra depth to his character, which we sure hope finds its way into the new canon.
This panel comes from Dark Empire II, which Dark Horse Comics originally published in 1995. The artwork is by Cam Kennedy and the writing is by Tom Veitch.
