I Cannot Believe Fett Has No Gun
So I'm into the new Mighty Muggs line from Hasbro, but not by choice. My wife actually grabbed a Mace Windu one day. She told me that this one was hers, and I could get one too. Well one turned into close to ten, and I now want them all.

Being that I jumped into collecting these after the first few waves had hit, I'm missing a few of the earlier ones. My wifes younger cousins whom I've adopted as my padawans to brainwash have(had) Boba Fett and Han Solo.

The older brother who owns the Han Solo really didn't want to trade, mainly because he couldn't find the gun he came with. However, his younger brother who owns(ed) the Boba Fett was really eager to trade and new exactly what he wanted from my house, which we were'nt even in at the time. He said he'd trade the Mighty Muggs Boba Fett for my POTJ Boba Fettt palm talker. I said deal, but first you have to find the gun that came with this Mighty Mugg Boba Fett.

"He didn't come with a gun" he said.

"I doubt that, this is Boba Fett! He's gotta come with a gun!" I replied.

We decided to look it up on Rebelscum.com to see who was right. As I navigated my way there he strikes up a side bet that if he's right he also gets some Star Wars LEGO mini figs from my collection. I agree to his choice of three, because I know I'm right. Soon as I opened this page, I hear him sputter "Sucker!"

To my astonishment, the Boba Fett Mighty Mugg does not come with a weapon at all. Every other character in that initial wave came with a weapon, be it saber or blaster. Not the almighty Boba Fett though. No, he'll just use his jetpack to fly away...

If anyone reading can give me a valid reason as to why Fett has no blaster, I'd love to hear it. Hasbro? LFL? Fett Fans?

Oh and by the way, the little bugger got away with my Clone Trooper, Sandtrooper and Hoth Soldier mini figs! ;)

It's like in Dumb and Dumber. "I got robbed by a little old lady on a motorized scooter...and I didn't even see it coming!"

I was wondering that very thing. They gave Jango both of his, so maybe this is little Boba before he got all vengeful. :)

You and me both. I thought I had received a plundered Fett box - but after some digging, discovered he did indeed have no gun.
I love the Mighty Muggs - but a plague on their awesomely recycled house.

Heh, when I first saw those in stores I could've sworn they were actual mugs. After I got the Jango Fett (who comes with a blaster) I discovered that they weren't. :O False advertising.

Wow, that's really odd. Jango gets two, and poor Boba with none. Maybe it's because he has a jetpack?
