Re: 1/6th Scale Sideshow Boba Fett Figure

Awesome photos up there! I have Boba with me when he was first released and I don't really do mods but I just want to ask what will be the best body to swap him out? A friend of mine is selling HT Chris Taylor body for a good price. I just want to ask if that body will work for my SSC Boba? Thanks!

That body would be too muscular, you should go with a true type slim

Thanks for the info! When I look at my Boba I think he's a little bulky and after seeing the results of the body swap I can't wait to transfer him to a newer one.

@usgent27 Awesome shots there buddy! Looking forward to transfer mine to a HT body.

They will have a Boba ROTJ version but in 1/4 scale.

Yes. Common sense says it may take a year or two, but there will be a 1/6 HT ESB Boba.

Some pics of my custom sideshow/ medi fett on a truetype.

I posted some a while back but I've changed him again. went to the sideshow chest piece that I tightened and rounded a bit. Was using the medi chest but the sideshow is better once you get the blockiness out of it.

Or just turn them the right way.

Nice job! The SS vest looks pretty good with the medi helmet

Hey guys,

Pardon me if this has been aswered before, it's a big thread.

I am thinking about finally customising and repainting the entire armour of my SS Boba. Given how the original props have been scrutinised and analysed by the fans, is there a consensus amongst collectors as to what specific colours from what paint manufacturer, are the best to accuretely represent the greens, reds and blues of his armour (for both the ESB and ROTJ versions)?

Thanks in advance.

Your best source for that type of info will be The Dented Helmet. Stencils, templates, paint colors for all of the prototypes, TESB, ROTJ, SE.

Here is my complete shopping list of all the paint colors you will need. I still had it in my phone from 2 years ago. All of these colors came from The Dented Helmet.

TS-78 Tamiya Field Gray (Dome and cheeks)
TS-61 Tamiya Nato Green
TS-28 Tamiya Olive Drab
TS-43 Tamiya Racing Green
German Field Gray or Panzer Oliver Green (Model Masters F505113) (Dome and cheeks)
Grun RLM73 (main color back of helmet)
Reefer Gray (around scratches)
Concrete (back of helm scratches)
Chrome (scratches)
PRR Maroon (Model Masters F414161) (mandibles) or Boxcar Red (F414281)
PRR Brunswick Green (Model Masters F414164) upper cheeks
U.S. Medium Green (Model Masters FS34102) (Chest armor)
Grun RLM62 (Gauntlets)

Great! Is there any notes on where the other greens go? (i.e. Tamiya NATO green, Racing green etc) And field gray is the underlay to the dome, right?
