Rebelscum's ESB Fett Replica

About six months ago Philip Wise of Rebelscum.com and TheForce.net commissioned me, Jason Miller (Darthmiller), and Eric Rothlisberger (batninja), now known as Texas Fett Productions, to build and assemble a "Replica" Empire Strikes Back Boba Fett.

It's with great pleasure we can now show the finished product !!!:cheering
As it now sits in the Star Wars Museum of Philip Wise.

TDH notes:
Helmet, Gauntlets, and Blasters painted by SF
Rocketpack, chest armor, knee armor, and shin tools painted by Darthmiller
Soft parts made or finished by Batninja
Helmet, Armor, and Gauntlets produced by Fettpride
Rocketpack, EE-3 Blaster, and side-arm produced by Man of War Studios

I want to personally thank Darthmiller, Batninja, Fettpride, Man of War Studio's, our machinest, Womo68 and Philip Wise.... this was a total team effort and I think the results speak for itself...thanks guys.:cheers

write-up on the details of the project and addtional Gallery can be seen here.

HA:lol..funny story, the guy who carved the stock for us, based his design on the MR Fett Blaster (which has those) and put them there...:thumbsup..looked so good we kept them.

That is truly awe inspiring. The detail is fantastic.

Tons more... still need to shoot the side-arm, and need shots of the rotating base that it all sits on now...might need to get video for that. Did I also mention the entire thing is wired, has a working servo and runs everything through the right gauntlet switches, lights and all?.... it's pretty much my dream set-up. :lol

Hey Alex, you told me you did good work????

it's not bad I guess :lol.

That is just awesome bro!

I would love to see a video, didnt think it could get much cooler untill you mention it being wired up :lol

Awesome looking outfit! I'll bet Philip was thrilled. :)
Another outstanding addition for his museum.

I see a cable coming out of the right leg, but assumed he was doing his toilet :D

Although my write-up on Rebelscum does say who made or painted the items on the commissioned side of this Fett, I've recieved a few PM's asking Who made what in terms of over all parts on this Fett.

I think it is extremely important to show some of the best of what TDH has to offer.
So I will list the TDH members that have parts or work on this fett.

Noted TDH members:

Helmet, Gauntlets, and Blasters painted and weathered by Spideyfett
Rocketpack, chest armor, knee armor, and shin tools painted and weathered by Darthmiller
Belt, Ammo pouches, JP Harness, Neckseal, Vest, and ankle straps produced or finished by Batninja
Helmet, Armor, and Gauntlets produced by Fettpride
Rocketpack, EE-3 Blaster, and side-arm produced by Man of War Studios
Electronics/ Womo68
ESB gloves/ Galactic Bounty Hunter
Chestlights/ Shackman
Shintools/ Bobamaker
Jumpsuit/ skygunbro
Sidearm holster/ Ruffkintoy
Knee Darts and toe spikes / RussRep
Horse hair Wookiee braids/ Julie
Gauntlet darts/ Serinty
Cape/ Trooper TK409

If I missed anyone, please let me know...

WOW ! :suprise

Just when you think that it can't get any better :lol

Spidey, if you keep raising the bar, people will have to invest in a set of stilts :lol

Amazing Job to ALL involved with this bad boy !!! And a BIG congrats to Mr. Wise ;)

Oh, yah .. AMEN to that ! >:

FP

You got mine in production now, right? :D

Mega! Love the weathering on the bottom of the belt pouch.....did I type that? Anyway off to try and replicate it!

Great work guys!

Thats an amazing job...i'd have to say as near to perfect as you can get...and the funny part is that its probably well past the original as far as quality goes.

Wow I might have to go to ESB after looking at that Fett,,,Nawwwwww ROTJ all the way!!! sorry can't do it,,but it does look good,,

Hey Alex,

What a superb job. Thanks so much for sharing this. I figure in 10 years will all have a JB Project anniversary celebration in Texas. I can dust off the Jet Pack molds for a few Anniversary Jet Packs..

Jeees..I'll be 50 then :rolleyes

A thing of extreme beauty. No question!!
Folk around here just keep getting better and better and it's thanks in part to the guys involved in this build. Long may you continue to share your knowledge and skill.

Awesome job guys! It's b-e-a-utiful!

I think this replica is further proof of the superiority of ESB over ROTJ ;):lol

such a awesome job bro everytime i see that fett in person i wanna take him home only =)

Nice work guy's! Beautiful work!
Darren:fettesb

Beautiful work guys! Hard to type with drool all over the place.:lol

The same group made two costumes back to back, one for Jeremy and one for Rebelscum... so yeah, they do look very similar!

Spideyfett & Darthmiller orchestrated the JB Fett Project with several other TDH members involved and the effort was pretty much replicated for Rebelscum.com's Philip Wise on his very own ESB Fett, suburb results each time! :thumbsup

:cheers

Errrrh, yes, what Art said! :lol

drop dead gorgeous. I don't know what else to say besides stare & drool:drool

Aha, when i first saw the pictures i was like "This is the Jeremy suit right..?" indeed they do look so much alike. Both outstanding works of art, the detail is amazing.

This also cleares up alot ;) Indeed when i saw the list of the actual makers involved alot of it is consistent with Jeremy's suit. I guess they should start making a suit for me ;)
