LEGO Star Wars Boba Fett (75455) Review: An Epic and Iconic LEGO Display Set

To generations of sci-fi fans, Boba isn't a kind of tea - it's the name of the galaxy's most feared bounty hunter.

LEGO Star Wars Boba Fett (75455) pays tribute to the iconic character, with a towering 16-inch brick-built statue depicting him as seen in 1983's Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.

With more than 1,500 pieces, an information plaque and a matching Boba Fett Minifigure, it's a build that covers all the bases with plenty of detail.

Let's take a closer look at the specifications of this LEGO Star Wars display set, and how to showcase it to full effect in our Boba Fett Display Case for LEGO 75455.

LEGO Star Wars Boba Fett (75455)

Price: $169.99

Release Date: Available Now

Ages: 18+

LEGO Minifigures: 1 (Boba Fett)

LEGO Insiders Points: 1105

Size: Over 41cm tall

First, the basics: Brick-built Boba stands an impressive 41cm (16 inches) tall, putting him on a similar scale to the 38cm LEGO Star Wars C-3PO statue (75398) and the 24cm LEGO Star Wars R2-D2 (75379).

Like C-3PO, LEGO Boba Fett stands on a sand-colored base that represents the desert landscape of the planet Tatooine.

The assembly process is organic and extremely satisfying, as you work from the ground up to build the bounty hunter's legs, torso, arms and head, adding the armor and other exterior details as you go.

Favourite Features

We love how well this brick-built statue captures the iconic profile of the character, with features that make him instantly recognizable:

• Green and red armor and helmet
• Blue Z-6 jetpack and EE-3 carbine rifle
• Fluttering soft fabric cape

Although it's described as a statue, there are also several places where you can change the figure's pose, including the head, arms and hands.

The result is visually striking and surprisingly dynamic, making LEGO Star Wars Boba Fett (75455) an excellent addition to any LEGO Star Wars display.
