The pack-in looks nice... but this is a pass. I don't need a duplicate ship and am not dropping $200 for a single loose Fett figure. Can we please just get a new Fett on a normal card at standard prices? Enough of the Fett price markups already.

(Thanks for the image size edit Jeff, I always forget how to do that...)

Oh for ****'s sake.  Again with Slave I?   You already tricked me into buying this sculpt a third time for the stand, I refuse to make it four of these.  ::)

- 2010 TCW Jango
- 2013 TVC Boba
- 2020 TVC Boba (repainted + stand)
- 2023 TVC Boba (repaint + stand + Tython Fett)

I really hope they are not greedy enough to keep that Tusken/Tython Fett exclusive to this ship...  >:(

It's nice.  I really like the Fett.  But I already have the TVC version so I will probably pass on this.
This is the way.

I was wondering just the other day if we’d ever get TVC Fett in his robes. Ugh.

Years ago, we were looking at figure variations. Now we contemplate buying ships because of the changes...  :-\

But, damn, extra points to the person who posed and photographed Fett.

This Fett had better be available without me having to buy a Slave I that looks almost exactly like the Slave I I already bought, which was a replacement for the nearly identical Slave I that I bought a few years ago.

I feel like Star Wars collecting has basically become something like...

I bet you weren't thinking it'd be an exclusive pack-in for an expensive ship though.

Kinda makes the $21 Target Fett reasonable by comparison.

That would be Matthew Cohen, an amateur toy photographer who has gone by ShootingTheGalaxy over on Instagram for years (he and I had a deal where we would trade Cardboard Galaxy displays for his awesome promo photos of said pieces.)

Hasbro hired him earlier this year, and his stuff has been all over Pulse lately. I am super proud of him, and he would be appreciative of the notice.

I’m probably going to just pay $100 for one of these…or buy a set and sell the ship…

Darth Anton did a great interview on his YouTube channel with Patrick and (I am spacing the guy’s name) a designer at Hasbro. He asked about the pack-in for this ship. It will be uncarded in the box, but it sounded like there’s a strong possibility of it showing up in the main TVC line as a single release somewhere down the road, like the Klatoonian Raider just did.

I think I’ll try to be patient and wait it out for that to happen.
