Another release from Bandai’s Tamashii Nation’s S.H. Figuarts, this time we get Jango Fett from the kinda liked, kinda hated Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones. I really enjoyed all the Jango Fett stuff, so I kinda love Attack of the Clones. I also really, really hated all the Anakin and Padme scenes, there are spoken lines of dialogue there that still make me cringe hard. But today we’re reviewing Jango. So what’s in the box:



Jango Fett

Pistols x 2

Holstered pistol grips x 2 (these plug right into the holsters)

Grapple Launcher Head (pegs into the right gauntlet)

Grapple Launcher Line with posing wire (pegs into the right gauntlet)

Spiked gauntlet extension (pegs right into gauntlet)

Fists L/R

Pistol Hands L/R

Relaxed Hands L/R

Gripping Hands L/R



So the basic standard assortment of hands, and then a few good accessories but they really kinda missed the ball on some key accessories. Firstly, this figure was showcased at different shows over the last year with an alternate unmasked head (which they should have included) so I’ll be peeved if they try and rerelease this as a web exclusive with an alternate head late on. Also, I don’t like that they didn’t include effects for the Jet pack, or even the 2nd jet pack he wears. This figure is basically screen accurate, this is Jango before his fight with Obi Wan on Kamino. So no dent in his helmet, no removable head, no poncho, no removable head, no Jango head with flight headset, did I mention his head isn’t removable? I mean it technically can be popped out of the socket but doesn’t work so great for a decapitated look.



Aside from some accessories I think they should have included, the other issue I have with this figure (like others have had) is the loose joints. For the most part they got the proportions right for Jango, like the Civil War Captain America the thighs for this figure are a bit thin, especially up at the hip. Makes the figure look kinda feminine. Jango’s pant hung low and were baggy, not form fitting. And the knee joint if bent more than 90 degrees starts to look a bit ugly. The ball socket at the waist is loose, he’s just kinda wonky in spots. This figure isn’t quite as impressive as some of their other releases, like both Luke’s they’ve put out, Obi Wan, Mace, Darth Maul, those were all incredibly impressive. This figure is more in line with their Darth Vader and Clone Trooper releases. Overall pretty good, just not the same level of detail, engineering or paint applications as their other figures in this line. Luckily, you can find this figure incredibly cheap, in the $40 range. So if you want a good Jango Fett figure that once you get in a good pose looks great, then grab it while you can. This figure comes APPROVED.
