This Boba Fett figure was released single carded exclusively through Target stores in April 2023
Target had trouble with this figure's release, they took pre-orders online but didn't fulfill them until after the figure had shown up in stores with many collectors still waiting for their orders to be fulfilled as of this review
The figure cost a whopping $22.99 + tax, which prompted collectors to coin the term Boba Tax
Apparently the high price point didn't matter because this Boba figure flew off the shelf when it was released at Target
The Kenner-style packaging pays homage to the original Kenner Boba Fett figure from 1979
Boba Fett came with a blaster rifle which the figure can hold well in the hands
The jet-pack plugs firmly into a hole in the back of the figure
The rocket on the jet-pack is not removable
The helmet can't be taken off and the range-finder on it is static
Boba Fett's orange shoulder bells are made out of soft plastic so that it's possible to move the arms higher than 90°
The soft-goods cape is permanently attached
The proportions on the figure look outstanding, especially the helmet looks fantastic
Boba Fett stands well on display without falling over
If modern sculpting combined with an old-school paint application and throw-back packaging is your thing, then this Boba Fett figure is for you
Unfortunately Hasbro opted to use a Return Of The Jedi version of Boba Fett for this figure instead of an Empire Strikes Back version as seen on the packaging
