12″ Ultimate Jango Fett is awesome!
First off, yes he’s out. He’s just extremely hard to get. I asked that he be held for me when he came into Toys R Us. He was $39.99 there. I understand he is cheaper at K-mart (34 or 32 with a sale) but he is harder to find there.
Second, yes there will be more. Jango is not limited and he’ll keep shipping. It might take a month to get him (or longer) but eventually some retailer will have a pile of him.
Now to the figure! He is awesome.
Removeable HEAD! Yup. In fact that’s the easiest way to put the 2 piece chest armor on him. Great sculpt really looks like Temurra Morrison!
Leather gunbelt! Holds both his Westar pistols nicely.
Jango comes with 2 pairs of arms that easily go in and out so he can have open or closed hands in any combination you want.
The slashing claws are separate pieces that you attach to the right arm gauntlet. It is interesting that he does not have the claws for his left arm (flamethrower side) at all. It is possibly that (within the SW universe) Jango does not have room on his flamethrower gauntlet (or cannot for safety reasons) have the blades.
Each right arm gauntlet (open and closed hand) has a spot to put the Kamino saberdart. It’s manually “launched.” The missle actually fires quite well from his backpack and I like this pack better than the one 12″ Electronic Boba came with. It is entirely different in sculpt and has a different firing button location. But I am talking about the first pack with the missle he wears on Kamino. This figure package also includes the one Jango wore on Geonosis.
Now his armor gets put on with velcro, and it stays on him, just not always perfectly in place when you are moving him, posing him. The tie-down straps on his legs are a bigger problem. When his holsters on his hips move, they can tug these straps loose.
He also comes with his tangle cable but I have no idea where you’re supposed to install it or if it will pull his arm off were you to hang him (or Obi-Wan) from it.
Overall, I am really happy with this purchase. A lot of the time the 12″ collection really gets me excited more about SW collecting in general.
I suppose I have tastes for:
well-done, cool 12″
Obscure or unpredictable 3 3/4″ action figures that are just nice they thought of.
Great Beasts Star Wars is all-so-famous for.
and
the great vehicles you can accessorize your figures with!
So where does the Ultimate Jango Fett fit into all of this? I think in terms of 12″ he’s definitely up there with the 12″ Bikerscout on the Speederbike, 14″ electronic Vader with Removeable Helmet, and Han Solo Hoth Gear on the TaunTaun. This is one sweet figure! I highly recommend you check it out!
