Greetings fellow dent heads!  Yes, I'm a newbie.  I've been trolling/stalking these boards since Christmas.  I've been an avid collector of vintage Star Wars toys since the days when girls had coodies.  I have a Star Wars room in my home.  It's decorated with vintage toys galore.  I'll post some photos one of these days to show it off.


It wasn't until late last year that I decided to expand my collecting into the costume/prop world.  I figured it would enhance my Star Wars room.   And I chose...drum roll please...


ESB Boba Fett


1. It's my favorite movie of all time. 


2.  He's the Boba that hangs with Vader.  In ROTJ SE, he's too busy hanging out with Tiger Woods' leftovers.  With all due respect to all y'all ROTJ fans, he lost his edge.  Like Rocky Balboa, he became civilized.  As a result, Boba got b*%#@  slapped the same way The Italian Stallion got his butt whooped by Clubber Lang.  Where was Patrick Swayze to say to Lucas "Nobody puts Boba in the corner!"  (Dirty Dancing reference for those who don't venture outside of Sci Fi!)  It was a disgraceful end for a character that deserved better.  But I'm fortunate to say, my therapy continues to go well some 26+ years later as I continue to recover from this massive movie injustice.  Perhaps in the Special Special Edition, Boba will miss hitting the Sail Barge and just float off into space where he meets up with the cow that jumped over the moon and the muppets.


So that's that.  Thus far I have a helmet, thanks to Stormtrooperguy.  Cape and braids from Woodman.  It's going to be a slow and steady race but I look forward to someday reaching the finish line.
