I like the ROTJ look better because it isn't as cohesive as ESB look. Has more of a put together customized look plus it's a little more colorful. At this point, I have a couple of incarnations of the ROTJ look already (Mafex, SHF, Disney die cast) so probably wouldn't be too enthused if it's just a new paint app on the old mold.

How many parts were reused between the original Black Series Darth Vader and the 40th Anniversary version? Boba Fett's costume changes no less than Vader's between ESB and ROTJ. The gauntlets are different, the helmet is different, the belt is different, the pouches are different, the ankles would have to be resculpted, the dents in the armour plates are all different and so on and so forth.

I'm a sucker for variant Stormtroopers, but I rarely add new toys to my collection these days; trying to keep my collection tight & manageable. But somehow the stupid silver version seen here is appealing. It's the kind of thing I would've done as a kid - paint a Stormtrooper with a silver rattlecan.

I agree that the SHF figure does a much better job and doing the clean look, but the black series figure is still pretty good. I am not a black series collector, but these figures have made me at least start getting the black series Mandalorian figures, or at least the figures of characters in the Mandalorian armor.

Or a silver sharpie...

I actually prefer his Jedi look personally, but to each his own. But I've been waiting for what seems like forever for Hasbro to get off their asses and make a RotJ version. I assume the delay is due to the fact that he'd require all-new tooling, as just re-purposing the ESB version wouldn't really pass muster these days.

Guess my Mafex ROTJ Fett will have to do for now. Life is hard, I know.

Oh, and you just KNEW this guy was coming! Day one purchase for me. Hopefully he comes with The Child as an accessory, but I'm not sure since he's coming separately (I think in May?). Beskar Mando looks sweet, however, and with a jetpack too!

I think the difference in his portrayal between the movies is part of it for me. He doesn't do much in either but in Empire he's at least shown to be a clever/competent tracker and enforcer whereas in Return he comes off like a drunk who dies by slapstick routine. Still at the end of the day I think he looks cool in both outfits.
