Philip Wise's Empire Strikes Back Boba Fett Replica. (By Alex Alva)

From Alex:

A few months ago Philip Wise, webmaster of Rebelscum.com commissioned me and few other local Texas Fett junkies to produce a 1:1 scale mannequin and replica of the most famous bounty hunter in the entire galaxy, Boba Fett, as seen in Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. Well that project is now complete, and resides in his personal Star Wars Collection Museum.

History of the project:

Previously, myself, Jason Miller, and Eric Rothlisberger headed up the Jeremy Project, where members of The Dented Helmet came together to give Jeremy Bulloch (the actor who played Boba Fett) his own Boba Fett replica costume. This event carried over to Philip's Replica Fett, as Philip and Rebelscum.com were very instrumental in the production of Jeremy's suit. New reference photos were found and used from Official Pix for Jeremy's suit as well as Philip's Fett to help maintain a very high level of accuracy…as this suit has some of the best fan-made prop reproductions currently out there in terms of Boba Fett prop making. In addition some parts were replicated based on real found parts that were used on the screen costume.

Replica produced by: Alex Alva, Jason Miller, Eric Rothlisberger, Adam Niemirowski and Philip Wise.
