What is the best Boba Fett to display on a shelf or table? He will be the only thing there, so it's gotta be good. No restrictions, except I really shouldn't spend more than $200.

Man up and spend the $400 on the Hot Toys 1/4 Boba Fett you pussy.
>>
>>5300834
>Man up

such a damaging phrase
>>
>>5300828
I honestly agree with >>5300834
Just save up. He's definitely worth it if you really like the character that does literally nothing.

How much painting are we talking about?
>>
>>5302377
Just basic weathering, like in >>5302373
Maybe some pre-shading, if that's your fancy.

Might as well just buy the Hasbro figure, since it will undoubtedly be better painted than anything an amateur who hasnt touched paint since 5th grade.
Nevermind it'll be more durable and look finished (no peg marks).

Hasbro's is basically the best looking one from all the ones that have been shown so far, including the prototypes.
If you want something better, there's statueshit.

>>5300828

Statueshit alert. I got this, and it's pretty cool.

Any good guides for weathering, also does he come with a stand?
>>
>>5303098
He doesn't. I used the stand from the ACV Agni kit.

As for a guide, you can probably find one in the gunpla general. But for Boba Fett, it's easy; take a thin brush, dip it in silver paint, wipe most of it off on a paper towel, and VERY LIGHTLY wipe it across the edges of a piece, then dab in the silver for the dents.
>>
>>5303110
Any specific paint? I have some cheap acrylic paint from micheals but should i get something actually decent?
>>
>>5303116
Testor's Metallic Silver/Argent. Made for models, relatively cheap.

Also, when you dip your brush in, make sure you wipe off the excess on the inner rim of the glass. Don't wanna waste more than you have to when you're wiping the brush off for drybrushing.

THIS

Have it on my desk.
Perfectly sculpted and painted, it's Kotobukiya, so you know it's good.
Stands 13inches tall, almost 16 with the "suspended" cape.

>TFW Bossk died on the sail barge
Also, a lot of Bossk EU was pretty much rewritten with Fett and the lizard having at least a professional working relationship. Clone Wars made it look more like a friendship though, with Bossk attacking an undercover Obi Wan in prison over problems he had with Boba.
>>
>>5309429
Doesn't mean it can't be both. Bossk seems to be Boba's caretaker in Clone Wars, who could have helped Boba become the bounty hunter that "died" like a bitch.
