A Wearable Lego Boba Fett

by Paul

Let’s say you’re a fan of Star Wars and want to stand out from all those other guys at convetions wearing Boba Fett costumes? You make a Boba Fett costume out of Legos, of course!

As you can see the jumpsuit and the cape are obviously cloth, but everything else from the helmet to the jet pack is pretty much all Lego. That’s some pretty kick you in the crotch nerdiery right there.

If you’ve ever been to a few comic conventions, you’ll know that the regular Star Wars character costumes tend to get passe after awhile. I never thought I’d say this before, but I’m pretty immune to seeing Stormtroopers now. It’s cool to see costumes like this pop up, because they require that extra bit of effort. Unfortunatly now that this is out there, I’m sure there will be a Jengo Fett Lego costume, then an all black or red one, and down the line until there’s a Sith bounty hunter named Darth Darkstar with his own completely ridiculous back story.

    Great find. I’ll make sure people know it was you who made the find when this starts buzzing around the interweb tubes.

    YES!!! Finally! Someone had to say it. And standard Fett got old years ago already.

    I was going to go to the next Star Wars Convention as Nude Boba Fett, but this might be a better choice.

    So… so I should just drop my idea of going as the “belly shirt” style Biker Scout now?
