About this deal

As for Baby Yoda or the Child, it comes with the hover pod we saw in the first episodes which is a nice addition with good design. While you cannot expect much design-wise from this character, LEGO nailed the shaping and completed it with those cute ears that you see on the picture. The overall design here was brilliant. LEGO used several printed pieces to complete the design of the helmet which would, otherwise, be looking odd and unfinished. The color scheme was great and included a custom blaster design. The torso printing is simple as you cannot expect much from a Stormtrooper but it is effective and the figure also includes a custom blaster. As a whole, I hope LEGO releases more figures of military characters like this one and maybe, I would then consider building an army of those.

Well, here we have a weird one but what can you expect from a LEGO buildable figure of a furry character. I understand how hard it would be to find that perfect solution for adding a furry effect and thus, I always close my eyes on this side of the Chewbacca figure. The Child, Baby Yoda, Grogu, disappoints a little. He comes in his hover pop but that only serves to make him seem too big against Mando. Later on, you will see the second Boba Fett release which does look sleeker than this original version but honestly, this set is just unique for other reasons. Yes, the Boba Fett is great here but the focal point here is the Han Solo in Carbonite.The weirdest addition in this set is the combination between the blaster and the lightsaber since I do not remember ever seeing Luke with both but it looks good at the same time. Now, over to CapnRex101 for a comparison with the figure from 41498 Boba Fett and Han Solo in Carbonite... Unfortunately, it includes a regular red lightsaber which, once again, looks odd at this scale but what can we do about it. They were first launched in early 2017, and we tend to liken them to the extremely popular Funko Pop Vinyls.

Finn is frankly just a bit meh! He is just a bit basic he almost looks like a bad prototype that was never meant to have been released. What can we say, the color scheme is great, the printed details are awesome and we would go as far as to say that this version of Boba Fett is an improvement of what was already a great figure that appeared with Han in Carbonite. Captain Phasma goes for up to four times her original retail price which is not a bad return on your investment if you snapped her up when she was first released. LEGO did an outstanding job with this piece and included lovely details. From the printed side pieces to the closed eyes of Han Solo (as it is in the movie), it is an absolute beauty. The Mandalorian bounty hunter is constructed like no other: a myriad of interesting SNOT techniques are used to create vertical stripes and fractional plate offsets which makes it a satisfying and educational build.A static rangefinder is clipped to the right side of the helmet while the left features another printed tile decorated with a yellow striped pattern. Further printing appears on Boba's shoulder armour, showing the Krybes, a Mandalorian emblem depicting the skull of a Mythosaur in Legends continuity. This is a charming detail and I think the light bluish grey tiles look good too, although this section of the helmet is actually dark green in the movie.

If we look at the Stormtrooper, Captain Phasma, and the Sith Trooper and draw a comparison with the Stormtrooper being top-notch and Phasma being a huge disappointment then the Sith Trooper is somewhere in the middle. Anyway, we can easily compare this figure with the one of Captain Phasma and you should instantly spot the differences in design and how much better the Stormtrooper is. The detailing on the helmet is incredible, LEGO used a bunch of different techniques to build the pieces together into one incredible design. LEGO previously released The New York Comic-Con 2017 Exclusive Set that bundled a slightly different Boba Fett figure with a Han Solo in Carbonite figure. 12. Princess Leia Organa 41628Overall, the only issue I could think of with this figure is that it was slightly bulkier than I would imagine it but that does not matter when you put it next to the amazing design and execution. They need be disappointed no more because the just-released 41629 Boba Fett is a considerable improvement on the version in the SDCC set.
