Special Edition 300th Figure - Boba Fett
The figure is sculpted based on his appearance in ESB. That is, grey gloves with differently painted fingers... the detail is incredible. Extra articulation was added to allow the arms to swivel to hold the rifle in a sniper position, and allowed Fett to look down his sights similar to the Metal Gear Solid figure Sniper Wolf. In an even bigger surprise, the rangefinder was articulated, just like the original 12" toy. The cape is made of tattered cloth, and it looks spiffy. The backpack has a removable rocket that looks just like the one in the movie. It also has a second firing rocket that has a rounded tip, and is significantly longer due to safety reasons... it hangs out a small hole in the bottom of the rocket pack. A second removable gun is included in his holster. All in all, this is the best offering Hasbro seems to have had, ever. Even the packaging has a window to view the back of the figure, and a backdrop of Cloud City-and if that weren't enough, the side of the box has a large image of Boba on Cloud City.
He's due to show up in late October, and is said to be the 300th carded figure since the 1970s and not the 300th overall figure since 1995. The claim is Ewoks and Droids figures were developed before Han Solo in Carbonite. Mara Jade was listed at #200, and of course, at #1 is the ever popular Luke Skywalker.
