Crumb, Jabba's pet Kowakian Monkey Lizard.
#CARBONITE HAN SKIN#
The face and the torso are redesigned and the figure's skin colour is darker than the original Bib Fortuna's skin colour from 2003.Īlso included is an all-new Jabba the Hutt minifigure, which is larger than the original version fron 2003 and is one of the largest Lego Star Wars minifigures to date. It includes a cloak and a headpiece meant to show his head tails, which is identical to the original Bib Fortuna's headpiece from 2003. A Princess Leia hairpiece for additional portrayal is also included. Under the helmet is Princess Leia's face, which is double sided. The Princess Leia (Boushh) is completely new, too, and includes a helmet, a thermal detonator and a staff. Oola is also an all-new figure, and features a double-sided head. It is also included in the set 75005 Rancor Pit released in 2013. The Gamorrean Guard is completely new and includes a vibro axe. This set also includes a new Han Solo, which is based on the Han Solo figure that was included with the 8097 Slave I set in 2010 but with a redesigned headpiece. Han Solo (Carbonite) and the B'omarr Monk come without accessories and Chewbacca includes handcuffs. The three old minifigs are the old Chewbacca from 1999 and the B'omarr Monk which was included with the original Jabba's Palace set in 2003. It certainly wouldn't be the first retcon in Star Wars canon, and it could even give him a scene or two with everyone's favorite Mandalorian bounty hunter when War of the Bounty Hunters arrives this May.This set includes ten minifigures, of which eight are new figures. Hibernation sickness can occasionally lead to memory loss, so Han Solo might not remember his time outside the block before being recovered by Boba Fett and potentially being re-frozen again. The discolorations on Han Solo's hands lends itself to another possibility: that Solo could be thawed out of the carbonite block during the events of the comic. Additionally, in War, Fett will have to contend with the criminal organization Black Sun, Jabba's lackeys and other obstacles along the way. " One galactic year passes between films (368 days), which would leave plenty of time for Fett to lose and recover Han's body. "Something had to happen in between that intervening time between Empire and Jedi. Indeed, C3PO (ever the pessimistic protocol droid) wonders out loud if Solo would even survive the freezing process.Ĭharles Soule reveals in an interview that Boba Fett loses Han Solo's body between films, and wishes to tell that story within the comic. In the Star Wars universe, ancient spacers used to freeze themselves in carbonite before the days of faster-than-light travel, but this process was not flawless and the travelers usually suffered from extensive hibernation sickness. Fett is seen conferring with an unknown Besalisk worker, also carefully examining the carbonite block. This is a potential sign that Han Solo is not in "perfect hibernation" as Lando Calrissian reports in Empire. Quite worryingly, he spots small discolorations on Solo's frozen palms and matching spots all over his face. Preview images from War of the Bounty Hunters show Boba Fett leaning over the block of carbonite and closely examining the captured smuggler within.

#CARBONITE HAN TV#
Thus, Fett makes appearances in Attack of the Clones, the animated Clone Wars TV show, the Disney+ exclusive The Mandalorian, and the upcoming Book of Boba Fett, premiering on Disney+ in December 2021. Even his unceremonious and undignified death in Return of the Jedi (he has no lines in that one) wasn't enough to stop the fans from speculating about his backstory - and buying his merchandise. First appearing in The Empire Strikes Back as one of many background bounty hunters (and with only four lines to boot), Boba Fett has only grown in popularity since the film's release.
