Boba Fett- Medicom vs Marmit comp

Thought this might help if you have the Marmit and wonder if the Medi's worth getting, or even if you're considering the perfect bash between the two. Plus theres a little jet-pack envy with the Rocketeer.

Very cool!
Goes to show what a nice figure Marmit's Fett is.
If it weren't for the helmet shape, it would be pretty close to perfect. Did you try putting the Medi helmet on it, just for fun?
No, because the Medi head is glued inside and the Marmit has a large ball that the helmet sits on. I did think of it though... as you can tell.
They're both VERY expensive for what they are. My hope is that SS will bring one out next year so we'll all be happy.

CHEERS!
The Medicom is really nice. I'm very happy with my BF figure, although it hurt to pay that much for an action figure. In comparison. I'm not a fan of the helmet shape on the Marmit version, but the height of medicom bodies is my big pet peeve.
Those are the other reasons why I hope SS do one.

CHEERS!
I don't know why but I always pictured Boba being a tad on the short side anyway, so the Medicom figure would fit my perception perfectly. That, and it's a fabric vest - come on now, it's a first! The Marmit helmet ruins it for me, it looks way off.

If I wanted to drop $150+ on a Boba, I'd go with Medicom. :banana

Must have Fetts ......
Chinook Hobby West's got 'em for $150.
Yeah honestly side by side like that in the pic I prefer the Medicom. He looks good with my Sideshow figures, a tad short but next to Han Solo it sort of fits.

Yes, but... the actor who played him is six foot one. I guess it all comes of standing next to David Prowse.

Yeah, I was aware that Jeremy is a decent sized guy. Those scenes in Empire probably skewed my perception, but I have no problem with a short Boba. :)
In my opinion the ultimate Fett figure would have the following:

  • Medicom helmet
  • Marmit jetpack
  • Medicom cloth vest
  • Marmit chest armor (shape and color more accurate)
  • Both Gauntlets look pretty good, but Marmit has a better color
  • Marmit blaster
  • The form-fit of the Medicom flightsuit and color of the Marmit flightsuit
  • The Medicom shoulder and knee armor
  • Marmit belts and belt pouches
  • Marmit cape
  • Medicom ankle ties
  • Medicom shoes
  • And a body that has the articulation of the Medicom RAH and height of the Marmit

The marmit fetts helmet is vinyl so every one of them i have seen has a different shape you can heat it up and mold it to look more like the medicom one. My marmit helmet shape is more like the medi helmet i think.
