Remembering the late Alan Harris (1938-2020) on his birthday today

Alan modeled the Prototype #BobaFett costume (later worn by Duwayne Dunham) including a test of the flamethrower attachment

He also played Bossk in "Empire" among other characters, including being the body mold for Han Solo in carbonite

"On April 10 [1979] ... Jeremy Bulloch had his first day on camera in scene 380, transporting Han Solo in carbonite and shooting at Luke Skywalker. 'I remember the director saying to me before we started, 'This character has to be a very cool customer. Imagine you’re walking down the street in a Western town. He's quick, but stealthy.'" – The Making of Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back

Remembering the late Alan Harris today on the anniversary of his passing in 2020

For a costume fitting in 1978, he wore the all-white prototype #BobaFett costume, but also played Bossk and a Bespin Security Guard on screen in "The Empire Strikes Back" – one of the ones pushing Han Solo in carbonite down the hallway

One year ago today, #WarOfTheBountyHunters #2 was released featuring #BobaFett and Qi'ra

Written by Charles Soule with art by Luke Ross, some context here: Qi'ra stole Han Solo in Carbonite from Fett before he reached Jabba and she tried to sell to the highest bidder

Before the cameras rolled on #BobaFett actor Jeremy Bulloch in "Return of the Jedi" (shown top center in a candid moment circa 1982), at least three other stand-ins were on set in his place: Quentin Pierre, Roy Beck, and Jack Dearlove

As noted on various call sheets for the original film, well documented when they go up for auction by Prop Store, these actors were stand-ins for several characters and even on screen, like Quentin was one of the Bespin guards escorting Solo in Carbonite for Fett in "Empire"

It's unknown if any of them suited up for camera or lighting tests, but nice to appreciate their role in production history

#BobaFett as "Jango" in #WarOfTheBountyHunters Alpha #1 (2021)

Steve McNiven's artwork with the start of Charles Soule's storyline, where the all-black look was just nano-spray paint (that evaporates in a few days) to look less recognizable in a fight (to make some coin because Fett's broke?) and, while he's out, Han Solo in Carbonite gets stolen from him (by Qi'ra) ... and that was part one of 34

Today we remember the birthday of Alan Harris, who wore the Prototype #BobaFett costume for an early test circa 1978.

While he passed away earlier this year, we also celebrate his on-screen role as Bossk, as well as one of the Bespin guards alongside Han Solo in Carbonite behind Boba Fett.

This Amazon exclusive "Empire" Slave I from 2013 originally retailed for $70 and dipped as low as $35 that holiday season. It's now common to find for 3x or more retail price in mint condition.

The ship was a re-paint of an earlier "The Clone Wars" Slave I from 2010 and the Han Solo in Carbonite was a re-paint of the "The Saga Collection" version from 2006. A #BobaFett figure was not included in the box. "The Vintage Collection" intentionally had packaging to resemble the original look from 1980 with some slight changes.

#MandalorianMonday: Nendoroid #BobaFett with Han Solo in Carbonite

Due for release in June 2017, you can already pre-order this 3.9" figure at one of the manufacturer's preferred vendors like Nakama Toys (http://bit.ly/2gapIkB) or other shops like Big Bad Toy Store.

While part of an "Empire" series, this figure has some screen-inaccurate choices: gauntlet color, cape color, Stormtrooper blaster, boot color, flight suit color, Wookiee scalp colors, and no sidearm holster to name a few. (Helmet nod to pittpenguin123 on Reddit for quickly spotting some of this at the same time we did.)

Announced at the 2015 San Diego Comic-Con yesterday is Hasbro's new #JangoFett, which is part of the line called "The Black Series." He's been pictured masked and unmasked, but it's unclear if the head (or just the helmet) pops off.

This follows the White Prototype Boba Fett (Walgreens exclusive), a 4-Pack set (Walgreens Mexico exclusive), the single Boba Fett release, and the Boba Fett / Han Solo in Carbonite (SDCC 2013 Exclusive). See them all at http://bobafett.com/bounty/toys/black-series/

After the latest #ThisIsMadness vote kept #BobaFett in the Sarlacc -- with no recount unless it's trending on Reddit -- we're left with no choice but to switch colors and costumes after over 18 years of carefully curating Boba Fett fandom online. Guess we're not bringing home the bounty, so it's time to carbonite freeze bobafett.com. But, don't worry, we'll keep our head on straight with the new venture: JFFC!

#FettFriday: "Ready for Delivery" by Andrew Ravenwood. This #StarWars fan art from 2000 was the artist's first use of the #HanSolo in Carbonite model from SCiFi3d. He textured it for Bryce, the 3D landscape modeling and rendering software. Then he added #BobaFett in the foreground and considered adding Slave I to the background. "But after I started to add lights to the scene, I felt the picture would be more dynamic if I surrounded it in steam with its main focal point being Han Solo together with Fett," the artist told us in an interview.
