• This Walgreens exclusive six inch scale Boba Fett (Prototype Armor) was released individually boxed
• The figure is a repainted version of the regular released Boba Fett figure
• This is unfortunate - because it makes this figure quite inaccurate when compared to the original source material
• Boba's helmet is not removable
• The range-finder on the helmet is static
• The jetpack plugs nicely into a hole in the back of the figure
• The rocket in the jetpack is not removable
• The soft-goods cape - the chest armor - the belt and the pouches are not removable
• The figure is able to hold the two weapons beautifully in both hands (with patience the index finger can be placed onto the trigger - which looks great)
• The basic blaster fits well into the holster
• The Boba Fett figure reviewed here had stiff joints - which allowed for it to be displayed in more dynamic battle poses

How close is this figure compared to the actual Prototype Armor?

• The blasters are inaccuarte when compared to the Prototype Armor Boba Fett (a detail Hasbro got right on the 3 3/4inch Prototype Armor Boba Fett figure)
• The holster is completely wrong
• The cape is wrong (they used a Star Wars beach towel on the Prototype armor)
• The rocket is missing the "spikes"
• Hasbro took a lot of liberty when painting this figure - the jetpack and the gauntlets on both arms have for the most part the wrong details highlighted
• The Prototype Armor Boba Fett didn't have Wookiee braids hanging over the shoulder
• It's unfortunate that Hasbro took so many shortcuts on such a beloved costume
• There is currently a video available on StarWars.com - which shows the prototype armor quite beautifully: http://www.starwars.com/watch/meet_boba_fett.html
• Despite a lot of inaccuracies when compared to the original Prototype Armor - there is just something extremely cool about this white Boba Fett figure!
• This Boba Fett figure was re-released by Hasbro nine years later in 2022, have a look here: Boba Fett Prototype Armor

Before he put on the familiar mandalroian armor from the Star Wars Saga, this notorious bounty hunter was initially envisioned as a "Super Trooper" in all-white armor. This special figure captures the beginning of a character that has become a legend who is both respected and feared across the galaxy ... Boba Fett.
