Boba Fett on Tatooine Warbird

#1 Post by kevtk135 »

This model is another model from deep in the stash. I remember buying it the model from the buy and Sell section of a forum. The sculptor was Chris Lynch, and looking at Boba, I'm guessing it's around 1/10th scale. I have no further info on it. Even doing a web search, that title gets exactly 1 hit from a guy on a Star Wars Models website who had it listed on his "wants" page. It's not from one of the movies, but maybe a comic or some book?

The kit came in about 10 parts. Boba's body and the bird. Boba's head, his two arms and rifle, the two sand people heads, a gun in a holster, some bag that had no apparent place to go, and the two parts of the birds restraint. It also came with a length of cord, and a length of "pleather". The resin was mostly in good shape, but it did need a little work.
Thanks for looking.

Looks good Kev. Good color choice on the 'Fett taxi'. Greatest bounty hunter in the galaxy far, far away riding on a turkey...just doesn't seem right somehow... :wink:

Nice! I remember this one was available for awhile way back when (20 or so years at least) but I never got around to ordering it.
He also had Luke on a Taun Taun and a Stormtrooper on Dewback getting attacked by sandpeople.

Thanks all.
Yes this one goes back a ways. The guy that does Ravenstar had a few kits of non starship models. But I got it second hand from a Swap and Sell or eBay. All of those other models are gone now.

So detailed really cool looking, great paint work, the sculpt reminds me of the Vaughn bode character, the bakshi film wizards cover art.

I thought of that myself, and since no one can remember what was the story behind it, and I don't want to bother the sculptor yet again, I guess we can postulate that he used it as inspiration. :wink:
