Boba Fett Ballistic Armor: Mandalorian Protection

Posted on 29/12/2016 by Conner Flynn

Boba Fett is real and has arrived in our galaxy. This image is proof. Actually, this Boba Fett mandalorian ballistic srmor was created by the folks at AR500 Armor. It not only looks cool, but it is also functional.

This armor is actually capable of stopping a bullet, but we don’t know about lightsabers. It’s perfect for human bounty hunters. Now you can catch bail jumpers and debt skippers in style, inspiring fear in them while you remain perfectly safe. You can even bring them back to your local crimelord as a popsicle if you want, then stick around for the party after and watch those Twi’lek dancers do their thing. You might even see a cool rescue and fall in a pit.

Wear this, because you are no good to you dead.

Plush Slave I Comes with Han Solo in Carbonite

Posted on 02/08/2016 by Conner Flynn

Are you a bounty hunter with a softer side? Then this Slave I complete with a plush Han Solo in carbonite is for you. The frozen smuggler docks right into the ship so you will never be without your bounty and always get paid.

This cute and soft ship is only $11.99(USD) from ThinkGeek. It measures 3 1/2″ tall x 4″ wide x 6″ deep. So if you’ve ever wanted to snuggle up with Boba Fett’s ship and a mini frozen Captain Solo, now is your chance.

I suppose it also makes a great small pillow in a pinch too. Fly it around in your hand and make some spaceship noises too. You have to.

Boba Fett Build-a-Bear Puts a Bounty on your Heart

Posted on 18/07/2016 by Shane McGlaun

Build-a-Bear Workshop is a place where I have spent more money than I want to even think about. If your kids (or you) are into stuffed animals and Star Wars, you will want to go by the mall and pick one of these up. This very special bear has print on its face that makes its head look like Boba Fett’s helmet.

Boba Bear comes dressed in his Mandalorian armor and wears a cape on back. You can add Star Wars sound effects as well. I hope one of the sound effects is Boba’s jetpack.

The bear sells for $35 (or $45 with his blaster), and if you lack a location in your local mall, you can order it already stuffed from the Build-a-Bear website.

Fett2-D2: Boba Bot

Posted on 01/06/2016 by Conner Flynn

Fett2-D2 (or is it R2-Fett2?) is the perfect droid/bounty hunter mashup. He can hold Death Star plans, serve drinks, or hunt down smugglers for bounties. He already had jets. Now he has another. This droid would be the ultimate bad guy.
This awesome Mandalorian astromech was spotted by cosplayer Victoria Schmidt at MegaCon 2016.

It’s awesome, but it makes me sad, because I really wish I could get a toy based on this droid. They really did a great job getting all of the details just right. Maybe this guy could be Boba Fett’s sidekick in the Boba Fett movie they have planned. I wouldn’t mind that at all.

Star Wars Geeki Tikis

Posted on 05/05/2016 by Ehud Riven

When you see a Tiki-styled anything, you immediately think of some relaxing vacation somewhere exotic. But what if the Tiki mugs (in this case), looked like Star Wars characters?

Well, you’d probably still be thinking of a Tiki Bar and going (or dreaming about) a vacation somewhere in the Caribbean, but obviously, with a Star Wars twist. Why? Well, it’s impossible to look at Yoda, Boba Fett, Chewbacca, Darth Vader, R2-D2 or just your average Stormtrooper and not get even more carried away in your imagination.

How far? Maybe reimagining Star Wars locations (We seem to get a lot of desert-like spots) in a more tropical way. My imagination isn’t that great, but yours is, probably, I’m assuming.

The mugs are ceramic, and besides being great for serving cocktails, they look great just standing somewhere in the house. All six type of mugs are officially-licensed Star Wars merchandise, and while it might be difficult to cope with, they’re not Microwave or Dishwasher safe. That means you’ll never be able to make one of those famous Microwave cocktails everyone keeps talking about. You can pre order these on ThinkGeek, and there’s a special pre-order pricing for the set of all 6. They should be coming out in late July.

Insane Life-size Boba Fett Action Figure puts a Bounty on your Wallet

Posted on 18/04/2016 by Shane McGlaun

If you have lots of money lying around and you need something geeky to do with it, here is your chance. This life-size Boba Fett stands 78.5-inches tall. It weighs in at 110 pounds and will ship next year sometime.

I’m not sure what you would would do with a 6.5-foot tall action figure, but it’s awesome. The statue is accurate down to the tiniest detail. Fett’s wearing a real fabric costume, and is outfitted with his iconic dented helmet, a backpack with jets, a utility belt, blaster, and a light-up chest panel. He even has a braided Wookiee scalp he carries as a trophy.

Of course, all this awesomeness will cost you. You’ll need to cough up $8,495 to bring Boba Fett to your house. You could also set up a payment plan at $764.50 per month. Who needs food or a car anyway?

Boba Fett Hawaiian Shirt: For Mandalorian Beach Vacations

Posted on 30/03/2016 by Shane McGlaun

I have long held a theory that when a man reaches a certain age, they receive gold chains and Hawaiian shirts in the mail along with their AARP cards and Medicare information. As far as I can tell, the Hawaiian shirt is the international uniform of the elderly retired set. If you have to age and that aging process includes tacky shirts, at least you can go with this Boba Fett design.

It has Fett’s helmet on it, the Mandalorian symbol and his Slave 1 ship. I had Boba Fett’s ship toy growing up, and I always thought that it flew wrong in the films. Why would it fly so that anything inside would be on the wall rather than on the floor? That made no sense to me then, and still doesn’t.

Regardless, you can get one of these shirts at ThinkGeek for $49.99(USD).

Star Wars Boba Fett Windbreaker Jacket: Mandalorian Mode

Posted on 09/02/2016 by Conner Flynn

Be the bounty hunter you’ve always wanted to be with this super awesome and nerdy jacket. This Boba Fett windbreaker makes you look just like our favorite Mandalorian any time. You’ll have to supply the helmet and real jetpack yourself though.

The windbreaker features Boba Fett’s armor styling with embroidered details. It also has two pockets. It’s made from a 100% polyester shell and sleeve lining, with 60% cotton and 40% polyester body & hood lining. This will help you stay warm in chilly weather. Because no one wants to be cold as carbonite.

You’ve always been a Slave 1 to fashion and anyway your current wardrobe is sar-laccing style.

This cool jacket is only $59.99(USD) from ThinkGeek.

Boba Fett Xbox One Controller is Bountyful

Posted on 17/12/2015 by Shane McGlaun

Normally, when you go into the store to buy a new controller after you broke the last one because your damned Fallout 4 companion refused to GTF out of the way in a narrow path AGAIN (not that I know anything about that), you end up with a few options to choose from and none of them are particularly cool. A dude named Devin from End of Line Designs cooked up his own Boba Fett controller that I wish I could have bought.

It started life as a normal Xbox One controller, and then was transformed into something very cool that should have its own Xbox One console mod to go with it.

One of the coolest things about the controller is what appears to be a canvas backing, covered with armor plates. Both the armor and buttons are weathered like well worn armor. It even has a digital counter on it counting something, as a counter should. The only things missing are a laser blaster and backpack.

Star Wars Characters Reimagined as Menacing Cars

Posted on 13/12/2015 by Alexandru Chiuariu

The launch of Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens is a few days away, and UK-based online shop Carwow thought this would be a great occasion for reimagining some of the space saga’s most iconic characters as cars.

There’s plenty of Star Wars merchandise going around these days, and while the follow cars aren’t for sale, I’m sure that many wealthy fans of the saga would buy them if they were. It’s great to see that the photo manipulators who were behind this campaign included characters from both the original trilogy and the prequels. There are no characters from the upcoming movie, but I guess it’s better that way, as there’s no way to know now how much people will root for any of them.

Alfa Romeo Giulia Stormtrooper Edition

The mindless white followers of Darth Vader were reimagined as an Italian street car that’s unsettlingly elegant.

As is the case with most cars in this collection, the windshield is supposed to represent either the eyes or the visor of the characters, and Giulia’s is perfectly complemented by the frontal air intake.

Han Solo’s Millennium Hellcat

As much as I would have wanted to see Chewbacca as a car instead, it’s great to see that the photo manipulator’s haven’t forgotten about the starship that Han Solo piloted in the original trilogy.

The heavily modified Dodge Charger Hellcat captures the spirit oft he Millennium Falcon perfectly, as not only the color and massive headlight remind of it, but also the mini-antenna that’s placed next to a rearview mirrors.

Darth Maul’s Honda NSX

The red Sith Lord’s 2016 Honda NSX looks as frightening as this character did in The Phantom Menace.

Honda’s entire body features horns and spikes, in an attempt to bring Qui-Gon Jinn’s murderer.

Darth Vader’s BMW Z4 Death Star Edition

Considering Dieselgate, I would have suggested using a VW car instead of BMW’s Z4 for depicting one of the best villains in movie history.

After all, VW cars have a harmful effect on the environment, pretty much like Darth Vader did.

Wedge Antilles’ Lamborghini A-Wing

Well, at least a car made by the VW Group made the list, right?

The young pilot’s outfit didn’t take a lot of photoshopping to be turned in this vintage Lamborghini.

Jar Jar Binks as a Nissan Juke

Targeted towards the young crowd (pretty much as Jar Jar Binks was, as I don’t think any grown-up Star Wars fan has ever taken that character seriously), the Nissan Juke is the perfect car to depict the abomination that is the prequel character.

Even that tongue that’s nearly touching the road makes perfect sense!

Boba Fett’s Mercedes G-Class

Mercedes G-Class is known to be a very reliable car, as are most vehicles created by this German automaker.

And you have to admit that Boba Fett was a pretty reliable bounty hunter, as well.

Luke Skywalker as a Mazda MX-5

Anakin’s son also had an outfit that’s easy to remember.

Now all we have to do is hope that some tuning division will pick up from where Carwow left off and will turn all of these curs into a reality.
