THE REVEAL: FINAL PAINTED VERSION OF THE CUSTOM ICCC 2021 EXCLUSIVE BOBA FETT

Custom action figure artist Matt Brookins, who is producing an ICCC 2021 Exclusive Boba Fett action figure discusses the color and paint scheme that will finish these masterworks:

“Here is the final painted figure that will be boxed in a large style action figure box) The paint scheme is from the 1977 Star Wars Holiday Special. The figure was cast in gray — although I did add a little blue for a blue/gray appearance on the later casts — and the colors are painted.

“I did a very small number of variants, using gray for the shoulder armor and cod piece. In the original cartoon, the color scheme did seem to vary between a blue and a gray depending on the shot. I prefer the blue, as it offers a little more contrast against the other colors. I used brown cloth for a cape. Like Squidhead, it’s a fixed between the torso and head.”

Only 50 of this ICCCon exclusive “holiday special” custom will be available on-site in a collectible box. 50 mint on card ICCCon paint variants will be available via preorder on-site during the convention this April. If the pre-order is fully backed at ICCCon then Brookins will produce 50 more in a green and gray paint variant— just like your favorite bounty hunter! Only 150 will be molded ever!
