This Boba Fett (Vintage Comic Art) 3 3/4" figure was released single carded in late July 2023 exclusively through Target stores
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
When collectors found Boba Fett in stores it wouldn't ring up and employees had to manually overwrite the internal code so it could be sold
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 figure repainted for this release is the VC186 Boba Fett figure from 2021
Boba Fett came with a blaster rifle and a blaster 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 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 paint application mimicks Boba Fett's bright colors from the 70s/80s comic book appearances
Even the blaster was given a rustic and used look which is great
The proportions on the figure look outstanding, especially the helmet looks fantastic
Boba Fett stands well on display without falling over
