Do you want an authentic Boba Fett helmet replica for your collection, a detailed miniature or a mask for your Star Wars Haloween costume? You’re in the right place to find all the necessary information.

Boba Fett is a popular fictional character in the Star Wars universe, despite having relatively little screen time in the films. Boba Fett is a bounty hunter hired by the Empire to track down and capture Luke Skywalker and by Jabba the Hutt to capture Han Solo. A clone of Jango Fett, Boba was created on Kamino and raised as Jango’s natural son. Jango trained the boy in the ways of the Mandalorians. Boba grew up to be a bounty hunter feared and dreaded throughout the galaxy, known for his subtle and cunning moves tracking down his prey. Fett commonly worked for the gangster Jabba the Hutt, and held associations with Darth Vader.

Boba Fett is currently one of the most popular characters among Star Wars fans and collectors. All kinds of Boba Fett related products are constantly among the top best-selling Star Wars toys and collectible items. Therefore it’s no surprise that the Boba Fett helmet is one of the most popular and sought for Star Wars helmets and voice changers.

Boba Fett Helmet Autographed by Jeremy Bulloch
The Ultimate Collectible Item

If you are a serious Star Wars collector, you now have a unique chance to get this life-size Boba Fett helmet with an authentic autograph of Jeremy Bulloch, who played Boba Fett in the Star Wars movie series..

The item comes with an official certificate of authenticity and a photo of Jeremy signing the helmets. Don’t miss this unique chance – when I last checked the site, there were only 2 left.

Boba Fett Helmet Collectible Replica

If you are a Star Wars collector planning to add Boba Fett helmet to your collection, you first need to choose between the life size wearable type and the miniature scaled replicas.

The wearable Boba Fett helmet replicas are usually made of solid plastic, but there were also top-quality 100% authentic fiberglass replicas like the one released as part of Master Replicas Signature Edition. Since the brand lost the official Star Wars license and disappeared some time ago it’s extremely difficult to find this product online. Instead, you might want to check the less sophisticated replicas, like the one produced by Rubies.

Boba Helmet Scaled Replica

Another very popular type of Boba Fett helmet replicas are the scaled miniatures. Again, you can still find a high quality scaled miniature made by Master replicas, crafted from quality materials, and using reference from the Lucasfilm archives. Another faithful reproduction of this infamous bounty hunter’s helmet is produced by Riddell. It features high quality die-cast metal parts, authentic helmet markings, removable base, realistic antenna and more.

Storm Troopers
No collection of Toy Star Wars figurines is complete without at least one or two storm troopers. Children love to play out their favorite scenes from any episode with storm troopers. You can also get these in the same dimensions as Darth Vader mentioned above. Twelve inches high and they come complete with an Imperial Blaster and stand. A perfect toy for any Star Wars Fan.

StarWars Fan Poll: vote For New Figures & Toys To Be Released

pejdos — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 20:24:07 +0000

Several manufacturers licensed to produce Star Wars toys, figures and collectibles have requested fan feedback to decide which new action figures should be released. One of the responders will even be given the opportunity to design a toy.

Let’s take a look at five different fan polls that will influence the future of some of your favorite Star Wars toys, figures and collectibles lines. Some of these polls will inform the companies, what their fans are most interested in seeing, others will lead to an actual release of the Fan’s Choice figure. The link below will take you to the page where you can vote on Quarter-scale figures from Diamond Select Toys, action figures from Hasbro, USB figures from FunKo, mini-busts from Gentle Giant and ArtFX & statues from Kotobukiya.

Ultimate Quarter-scale figures from Diamond Select Toys

Diamond Select’s Ultimate quarter-scale figures are 18” tall, fully articulated figures includinf cloth costumes and equipped with voice chips, available at very reasonable prices – under $100 a piece. The company is now eager to know which character you want to see next.

Hasbro cares about your opinion.

A bit of history: In 2006, Hasbro teamed up with ToyFare to launch the first ever poll for Star Wars.

“We were interested in gauging the pulse of what made fans tick in a post-Episode III world,” says Hasbro Star Wars Brand Manager Derryl DePriest, “so we literally threw open the doors and asked fans to nominate their top 25 favorite Star Wars figures that they wanted to see made.”

Hasbro announced that the overall winner of the poll would be included their next year’s action figures line.

Funko USB flash drive figures

In order to satisfy all Star Wars fans’ need for convenient data storage, FunKo has created the line of Star Wars USB figures in the style of their famous bobbleheads. Currently you can choose Darth Vader, Yoda, Boba Fett or Stormtrooper. Do you want to help them decide who will be next?

Gentle Giant Mini-Busts

Gentle Giant already seems to have released every Star Wars character imaginable in their mini-bust line, but it’s not the case yet. Now they want you to tell them who you’d like to see done next.

Kotobukiya ArtFX & Statues

Kotobukiya, Japan’s number 1 collector toy company, has been very successful with their Clone Wars based ArtFX and statues, that’s not enough.

Star Wars Toys Figures and Collectibles Basics

pejdos — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 11:34:58 +0000

A few tips for interesting Star Wars toys – figures and statues

Since 1977 when the first line of Star Wars merchandise appeared, there were literally thousands of different types of Star Wars toys, figures and other collectibles released by different manufacturers worldwide. As collector, I already know that it would be unrealistic to provide a comprehensive overview within a single page like this one, so I will at least introduce some of the items I find most interesting. On this page, I will start with my favorite category of Star Wars toys – figures and statues.

The most popular action figures – Star Wars clones

Without any doubt, currently the most popular Star Wars toys, figures and collectibles are the ones related to ‘Star Wars: The Clone Wars’ animated series. If you are trying to find a perfect Star Wars gift for your child, these are the ones to look for. Among the most favorite Star Wars clone figures, there are different kinds of clone troopers, battle droids and of course the famous characters which appeared in the original movie saga. Since these figures are inspired by the animated series, they are not trying to be too realistic, but feature the “cartoon style”. I suspect it’s one of the reasons the kids like them so much.

Star Wars Toys/Figures – Galactic Heroes

The Star Wars Galactic Heroes is basically a line of cute mini Star Wars Toys/Figures. The figures are about 2 inches tall and they are also available in sets including various vehicles and spacecraft models. They are both interesting as toys for your kids or as collectible items. This unique mini-figure collection features a wide variety of awesome characters from some of the coolest and most unforgettable Star Wars movie scenes. My personal favorites are the Boba Fett set (for no particular reason – I simply like this character) and X-Wing Fighter on Dagobah Set.

Star Wars Toys / figures from the Legacy Saga Legends series

As the name suggests, these are the toys, figures and statues inspired by the original film saga, so you pretty much know what to expect – the good old characters you already know, in new modern design. The Legacy line of Star Wars toys, figures and collectibles also includes the ‘Titanium Series’ – high quality die-cast models of various vehicles and spacecraft. I would highly recommend this line to all true Star Wars lovers and collectors.
