I didn't realize until near the end that Boba Fett had armor on his back. Luckily, Blaxmyth came to my rescue and after a few hours of heat gunning, we managed to get a piece of ABS to form quite nicely into the piece I needed. I connected the back plate with the shoulder piece using some nuts-and-bolts covered by silver-spray-painted keyboard keys.
Here is the finished Boba Fett. Unfortunately, the writing on the gloves was not hidden, and I ran out of time and resources to make some proper boots (I did manage to make a set of spats half an hour before he arrived to get dressed for that evening):

Here is the entire team... three weeks and virtually no budget:

Here I am relaxing on the evening, assuming the Han Solo "I'm not going anywhere" pose:

Boba Fett started sniping one of the other teams with his laser and they retaliated with some shots of their own:

All in all a successful evening, but a crazy three weeks!
I want to extend my thanks to all the RPFers who managed to get me various pieces over those few weeks, especially CMF and TazVader for their advice, marsattack for the great Boba helmet & armor, Blaxmyth for all his help, my wife for putting up with the huge mess in our dining room and to God for the miracle of helping me pull all this together in time. Deo Gratias!
Kind regards,
Magnoli
