    I was able to get the cloud city Boba Fett in a lot of Lego I paid $100 for. When I bought the lot I had no idea he was in there and I was stoked when I found him alongside with cloud city lando, and cloud city Han

    What a crazy find! Could be in better shape, but for the price you paid, come on! Can’t argue with that price! If you know what you’re looking for, you can pick lots like these or collections at a garage sale. My favorite thing about doing stuff like this is seeing figures from the same set and trying to find out if the seller has the others. It gets me super excited when it happens!

      Yeah the only problem is the poke in the face of the torso. Im hesitant to switch the arms out to a different torso. It is def a lot of fun

      @@cheeseontop17 If you decide to, just make sure it’s using the old grey color. You can find those old grey standard Bobas FAIRLY cheap. Also, in my experience, remove the hands from the arms before you remove them. I’d always keep that torso, just to have (probably) a 100% complete original figure, but yeah, I’d try to replace the torso.

    I think we all have that one stupidly rare figure that we want in our collection, a white whale even. I think for me it'd either have to be the Darth Revan minifigure or the Shadow Arf trooper minifigure. Not that I dislike cloud city boba fett, he is a very cool figure, though personally I prefer the classic Jango Fett minifigure that uses the same helmet mold with different colors and prints

    I have the torso of the old bespin Luke minifigure and all I need are his legs which are like impossible to find anywhere and most of the time when people are selling the Luke minifigure the legs are always a different print that I think came from the lego Adventures line with Johnny Thunder for the last wave with the dinosaurs.

    I actually have this boba fett….. I’m sorry I legit did my research on this figure right now. As a kid I played with Lego Star Wars and as a kid this was my favorite character. When I passed my legos to my younger relatives. I only kept boba because I really love him. He is in my room just chillin next to my pc. I didn’t know he was this expensive and wanted. Im actually debating on selling him right now I need to get a better grasp of what I have.

  • @Sigma_meister

    My moms old boss runs a record store and he got a lot of legos a while back, I often stopped in there and the first few times I found a couple good figs like kit fisto tobey spider man the og p1 clones and some of the light up figs, I went there one day and he told me he got another huge lot of lego, I found things like p1 Rex and fox, the og kashyyk clones. Most the figs came in the medium ziploc bags so I could only see some of the figures in them, when I got back home I opened the bags and found cloud city Luke legs and Landos torso, and a classic boba fett helmet I told my dad how much they were and he brought me back to try to find the rest of the figures, I found 2 og dagobah Luke’s, Jedi bob an old count dooku and even more light up figures. I couldn’t find the rest of the figures but I was happy with what I got. My cousins birthday came up and with him being 7 he loves lego city, I remember they had a bunch of the bags of city figs that I didn’t look in because I didn’t think I would find anything, I bought the city figs for him and when I got home to wash them off I found the Lando cape and bobas legs, I was so pumped and told my dad we had to go back and find the rest of him but the store closed and we weren’t able to go until the next weekend, when we got there I ran to the bucket with all the minifigures and loaned behold there was nothing there. I’m still happy with what I got and they still have some cool pieces to classic sets but there aren’t many parts to figures left other than random arms and hands at the bottom of the assorted bins, also at our second stop there I didn’t know at the time but I had grabbed a lot of the big plates that make up the base to the cloud city set so I was kind of able to rebuild the set, I found a lookalike torso for Luke and I ordered the classic grays boba fett body, I’m planning on buying the rest of him off my cousin who has a bunch of his childhood lego and is going to college soon

    There r different versions of his helmet too. The brown is slightly different but i dont think cloud city had one that was rare so ur good to go. I think the different one came a year or 2 later. Pretty sure i heard about this on one of brickvaults "every boba fett fig" videos... Or maybe "every mando" or every bounty hunter"... But like I said, ur good to go. That is pretty cool tho
