Fettacini
Hunter
Hello everyone, so as a child of the 90's with heavy nostalgia. I was surprised to see Marco Enterprises back in action selling off his old stock.
So I don't know a ton about him, but apparently these props were the best, unauthorized star wars props at the time. Sure, not everything was accurate, and it was mostly vacuformed plastic, but his soft good were excellent.
I have always wanted to do a good holiday fett, but im not after super realism. I want to skirt the line between cartoon and realism. When I saw his ad pop up on ebay for his "Bounty Hunter" full set, I couldn't pass up the opportunity.
Since I couldn't find anyone, anywhere with reviews or overviews, I figured what the heck, ill do it.
Bonus and also what really sold me, his left gauntlet has the Pre Pro 2 flame thrower, that actually telescopes. That bad boy is getting ripped off ( carefully removed actually) and the coiled cord is getting replaced with a retro red sping coikde telephone cord.
Anyways, I thought I would do a piece by piece review and show you guys and gals my thoughts. Since my animated Boba doesn't have to be spot on, more of a caricature, I plan on using all.of his soft goods and armor, but with maybe a FP2 helmet.
So without further boring you, let's see what you get for a few hundred bucks.
Edit, I have attached photos from the catalogue he sends so you can see what the whole set looks like in old 1990's photos lol
