Every rocket firing fett you seen on ebay is 99.999% certain to be a custom/fake. The reals ones are few and far between and come with provenance etc.

Jason

its fake and overpriced

cheers

i saw one the other week go for £147.00!!, same pics and description, thats alot of money for a fake

so how do people go about getting hold of an original or do they just settle for fakes like these for there collection?

cheers

A friend of mine was saying he remembered kids at school having rocket firing fetts!, maybe a batch of them found there way to Zodiac toys during the early '80s in Croydon (where most of the locals got their figures) before they were withdrawn?

....or maybe my friend was talking **** because he was very drunk.

There was a seller on ebay selling the unpainted boxed boba fett with no marking people are just painting them and changing the limbs. This joker got 1 for sale as well

thats the same guy who sold it for £147 last time!, he does admit that they are custom ones i suppose though

what does everyone do then for a rocket firing boba fett? do they buy cheap fakes or nothing at all?

There is very little of them. I think most off us on here could not even afford them

Personaly I'd make do with a fake (if I really wanted one that is, I'm happy with my standard Fett!), just as I'm happy to make do with my fake vinyl caped jawa...

I find a C7 loose booba fett strapped to a firework quite effective. They get a good height too.*

*I haven't actaully tried this yet...

How much was brian toys wanting for there AFA graded one was it not roughly £2000-£3000

Sounds about right.

Jason

That seller purestarwars should be banned from ebay

There's that carded one coming up for auction soon starting at $100k. I'll be in with a chance on that if I start saving now. I'll drink halfs. Any other ideas or grandmas I can rob?

Jason

is that coloured in with blue brio ......... :lol:

You work for a bank, "accidentally" transfer a few hundred K into your account! :wink: :lol:

I dont think the carded rocket fett will get sold. Has any collector got that sort off money to shell out on a MOC
