Cool Collectibles: Boba Fett Kotobukiya Statue

Kotobukiya is one of my favorite manufacturers of kick ass collectible statues and their new Bounty Hunter series from Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back looks to be among their finest works yet. All six bounty hunters (Bossk, 4-LOM, Dengar, Zuckuss, IG-88 and Boba Fett) will be released separately, starting with Boba Fett. Each statue will come with a bonus piece that when combined form a full size statue of Darth Vader. How cool is that? The bases they come in can be linked together from any side to form the Galactic Empire logo, or whatever formation you want to use to display them.




Here’s Boba Fett, the most famous bounty hunter in that galaxy far, far away. He stands about 11 3/4 inches high and comes with Darth Vader’s left arm. The level of detail is sick, as usual. He seems to be flying and shooting his flamethrower at the same time. Look for him in specialty shops in April 2008.

Kotobukiya makes some great stuff, and Star Wars is no exception. their SW stuff is awesome. I had not heard about the "build-a-statue" though; this is actually a theme going on in toys lately; Marvel has been doing that a lot. But toys are one thing; statues another. :I
