Year Released
2003 context: Debuted in set 10123 Cloud City. This was an era before dual-molding, representing the peak of 2000s pad-printing technology.
Rarity
Ultra-rare. It was exclusive to a single, expensive set that had a limited production run and was not initially popular.
Head
Classic LEGO yellow head with black standard 'Grin' face. Includes the sand green Mandalorian helmet with black T-visor and brown/dark red details.
Torso
Light gray torso; front printing features iconic green Boba Fett armor, utility belt, and Wookiee scalps. Specifically features unique arm printing for gauntlets.
Legs
Light gray legs and hips. Features unique front and side leg printing detailing knee armor and pockets/pouches.
Accessories
Usually paired with a dark gray jetpack and a black blaster (not pictured). Often displayed with a cloth cape (pauldrons).
Color Scheme
Light gray base with sand green, brown, dark red, and yellow accents; designed to match the 'The Empire Strikes Back' look.
Printing Details
Highly detailed for its time; it was the first Star Wars minifigure to feature both arm and leg printing, a rarity in 2003.
Variants
Standard Boba Fett (sw0002) lacks arm/leg printing. 2010+ versions use flesh heads and updated molds. This 'sw0107' is the only variant with this specific combination.
Condition Notes
Prone to heel cracks and arm stress marks. The image shows notable wear on the helmet top and hand discoloration. Value drops significantly with play wear.
Estimated Value
New: $3,000-$5,000; Used Complete: $1,500-$2,500; Current state (as pictured): $800-$1,200 due to visible condition issues.
Price (New)
Retail set 10123 Cloud City cost $99.99 in 2003. The figure was never sold individually.
Compatible Sets
Set 10123: Cloud City (2003).
Character Background
Famed bounty hunter who captured Han Solo. This version depicts his appearance in Cloud City during the betrayal of the Rebels by Lando Calrissian.
Design Notes
A landmark in LEGO design. The arm printing was so expensive/complex at the time that LEGO didn't repeat it regularly for years.
Similar Minifigures
Boba Fett (sw0002, sw0396), Jango Fett (sw0053), and Cloud City Lando Calrissian (sw0105).
Collectibility
Highest possible tier for Star Wars collectors. Regarded as the 'Holy Grail' of non-convention exclusive minifigures.
History
Preceded by the simple sw0002 version. This figure proved that there was a high-end market for ultra-detailed minifigures.
Interesting Facts
For many years, this figure was worth more than the entire set it came in. The arm printing design is unique to this 20-year-old part.
Display Suggestions
Should be kept in a UV-protective acrylic case. Ideally displayed with the other 10123 exclusives like Lando and Greased-hair Han Solo.
Modification Potential
Low; any modification to this figure drastically reduces its four-figure collector value. Keep as original as possible.
Overall Assessment
Elite collector's item. Despite the visible wear in the photo, it remains one of the most sought-after plastic pieces in the world.
