We are thrilled that the chest readout detail has been added to this landmark Boba Fett figure, and it has prompted an update to the review:

Updated Review: Chris - 4/29/21 07:05 AM

Two lines emerged on a green chest plate. And that has made all the difference.

The readout on the upper left of Fett's chest was missing from the original production run of this figure with the date stamp of "03571" (December 22nd, 2020). This is a small but iconic detail that had been featured on all previous modern Boba Fett figures. The second production run is date stamped "10501" (February 19th, 2021). The chest readout detail is present on some of the figures from this run. We say "some" because our friend John Miko from the TVC Facebook Group received a figure date stamped "10501" that doesn't have the chest readout.

With the restoration of this little, but important detail, we're increasing the score to a perfect 10 out of 10, and calling this figure definitive for Episode VI Boba Fett.

Update: As pointed out by the eagle eyed Binary_Son in the comments, the center rectangle on Fett's chest armor is now a sculpted recess on the "10501" release.
