IT'S OFFICIAL! BOUNTY HUNTING SEASON IS OPEN...

Image

From his entrance on the bridge of Darth Vader’s command ship, to his unworthy exit in the belly of the mighty sarlacc, Boba Fett has excited fan’s imaginations like no other.
Shrouded in mystery, Fett’s origins and importance to the saga would later be revealed. But for a while, a long time ago, in a decade not too far, far away, Boba Fett remained an enigmatic warrior, who said little but who carried a big gun…

And what a gun it is! For the first time ever, Master Replicas brings you a fully authorized and licensed replica of the legendary bounty hunter’s firearm from Star Wars: Episode VI Return of the Jedi.

Crafted with our customary quality and attention to detail, this exacting replica has been recreated from a surviving filming prop in the Lucasfilm archive and features:

Authentic weathered finish
Machined aluminum and brass parts
Diecast metal construction
Injection molded plastic components
Wooden handles
Museum quality display case with mirrored base and acrylic cover
Numbered plaque and Certificate of Authenticity

Anyone see the relationship here?

I guess they got a lil design from the boba's gun and placed it onto the DC15s

Say.... the trigger section looks like a revolver.

Yup... if you watch the movies very carefully, I'm sure you'll find more of such "connections"between the various Star Wars movies and the characters that are in them... it's amazing that Lucas doesn't miss these things out. So often, we hear of so many continuity errors in the Star Wars universe... perhaps we should also focus on what he DID do right, and give credit where it's due :)
