Editor’s Note — Boba Fett is a bounty hunter in the Star Wars universe. The character first appeared in the 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special broadcast on CBS. Since then, the Mandalorian has gone on to become a fan-favourite, appearing in multiple Star Wars films and the Disney + series The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett. The popularity of Boba Fett is reflected in the collectibles market. In 2024, a Kenner Products action figure sold at Heritage Auctions for a record-breaking $525,000 USD.
