I’ve always wondered what the Boba Fett hype was, as a causal Star Wars fan. Is it like, an Expanded Universe thing?

[(Anonymous)]

I think it was mainly because he was this mysterious badass and that intrigued a lot of people. I believe thhere was some expanded universe stuff about him, and the prequels gave us some info on his origins, but that came after people got interested in him.

I think it was originally the fact that he had a really cool toy, at a time when that was a huge thing for Star Wars, and then everything else came after that

[(Anonymous)]

Way back when, in the 80s, they had a pretty cool toy that was, like, a big thing to people who were into that type of thing - I think it might have come with the Han Solo in carbonite one or if you had one, you wanted the other. But I also think it had something to do with the way Han reacted in Return of the Jedi. Like, there had to be more to that story.

[(Anonymous)]

It mainly just started for two reasons - 1) He looked kinda cool and 2) the way Vader interacted with him in Empire Strikes Back gave the subtle implication that he was a badass and that the two had some prior history ("No disintegrations!").

Vader treats Fett with the kind of professionalism and respect that is only matched in the series by the way that he behaved around Moff Tarkin.

From Vader's words, Fett has apparently disobeyed or not quite met Vader's demands for a bounty before... and not only did he survive the encounter but also impressed Vader to the point that he has been hired once again. Even when Fett questions him in the carbon freezing chamber about freezing Han (potentially costing him the bounty), instead of threatening him or dismissing his concerns, Vader offers fair compensation. Contrast that with his treatment of his own officers, or with Lando.
