A Boba Fett action figure sold for over $1.3 million, becoming the most expensive toy ever sold. The figure is a prototype, extremely rare, and high-quality, all of which contributes to its high value. The popularity of the Star Wars franchise plays a significant role in the collectible's value.

A Boba Fett action figure sold for over $1.3 million, making it the most expensive Star Wars toy, and the most expensive toy in general, ever sold. Boba Fett is one of the best bounty hunters in Star Wars, and he's been an icon of the franchise ever since The Empire Strikes Back. He was a sensation as soon as he appeared in the Star Wars movies, and his popularity grew enough that he got a solo spinoff show, The Book of Boba Fett. There was even a now-canceled Boba Fett movie at one point, and one toy perfectly exemplifies how important he is as a character.

Aspyr is finally giving fans the Easter egg they've always wanted in Star Wars: Bounty Hunter through a Boba Fett skin. The skin was teased for the original game but never made the cut. The remastered version of Star Wars: Bounty Hunter features upgraded textures, lighting effects, and DualSense features for PS5 players.

It's already exciting that Star Wars: Bounty Hunter is receiving the remaster it's always deserved but what makes it even better is that developer Asypr is giving fans the Easter egg that should have been in the original game. Released in 2002, LucasArts' cult-classic third-person action-adventure game served as a tie-in for Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones by providing Jango Fett's backstory. While it may no longer be canon, it's good to see Aspyr bringing some of the more obscure Star Wars games to modern platforms, especially when it goes above and beyond.

Writing on the official PlayStation blog,...

Patience and manipulation define Emperor Palpatine, orchestrating the downfall of the Jedi Order to create the Galactic Empire. Asajj Ventress may not be the strongest villain, but her betrayal story and varied alliances make her a standout character in Star Wars. Darth Vader, the iconic Darth Vader, embodies terror and hatred, showing the extent a character can go in expressing misery.

47 years ago, Darth Vader made his triumphant entry in Star Wars by bursting onto the Tantive IV. Since then, the franchise has been filled to the brim with imposing and iconic villains. Many of Star Wars' recent villains—such as Baylan Skoll and Kylo Ren—are more sympathetic in their goals against the main characters. Others, like Palpatine and Jabba, want nothing more than to subjugate and rule as many lifeforms as possible.

In any case, some of Star Wars’ best villains are more powerful than others. But power...

Asajj Ventress may know Palpatine's Sith Lordship, hinting at a deeper connection to the Empire's dark secrets. Palpatine kept his Sith identity hidden, with only a select few aware of his true power throughout the galaxy. Asajj Ventress understands the danger of the Empire, likely fueled by her knowledge of Palpatine's Sith nature and past alliances.

One of Emperor Palpatine’s greatest secrets is implied to be known to a returning Star Wars character in Star Wars: The Bad Batch. Palpatine, like most Dark Lords of the Sith in Darth Bane’s dynasty, kept his Sith Lordship secret as he undermined the Jedi and Republic. As Supreme Chancellor Palpatine and as Darth Sidious, the Star Wars saga’s ultimate villain controlled both sides of the Clone Wars, using the manufactured conflict to turn the Galactic Republic into...

The Star Wars franchise consists of countless stories that stretch across an expansive timeline. Many narratives take place in different “years,” though it’s often easier to organize that timeline by putting it in the context of the various Star Wars movies. So far as that goes, few pieces of the Star Wars timeline have been explored as often (or as thoroughly) as the events surrounding the original trilogy of films.

So while it’s no surprise that developer Massive Entertainment is returning to the original trilogy for their upcoming Star Wars open-world title (Star Wars Outlaws), it’s a little surprising that they found a part of that particular timeline that we don’t see very often in modern Star Wars media.

Star Wars Outlaws is Ubisoft’s upcoming Star Wars project. In that game, players will control Kay Vess, a “scoundrel seeking freedom and the means to start a new life.

Star Wars Outlaws will feature three major crime syndicates - the Hutts, the Pykes, and the Ashiga - as part of its narrative, offering players the opportunity to navigate the criminal underworld. The game takes place during the Galactic Civil War between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, with crime syndicates thriving due to the Empire's focus on the rebellion. However, the Crimson Dawn and Black Sun syndicates are not mentioned, despite their significant influence during this time. Working with or against these syndicates may force players to make difficult moral choices, contributing to the game's emphasis on relationship-building and dialogue options. It is surprising that Kay, the protagonist, does not come across these syndicates considering the game's scope and story.

The Star Wars Outlaws Sdcc panel revealed three major crime syndicates that will play a part in the game's narrative. Ubisoft's upcoming open-world title is...

With the advancement of technology and knowledge in the modern world, many things that were previously only possible in dreams are beginning to manifest in the real world. Robots, in particular, have long been a topic of fascination in futuristic debates, and we even have an abundance of films based on Artificial Intelligence, such as I, Robot, Ghost in the Shell, Transformers, and Terminator. As outlined in the upcoming film Robots, no matter how many different themes we explore surrounding these lifelike androids, many new storylines emerge from their predecessors.

Robots is an upcoming science fiction romantic comedy film written and directed by Anthony Hines and Casper Christensen and starring Jack Whitehall and Shailene Woodley. The film, based on Robert Sheckley's novel "The Robot Who Looked Like Me," will focus on the unique love story of two robots that explore the world while trying to avoid their human masters.

Warning! Spoilers ahead for Star Wars: Bounty Hunters #30!Some of the most memorable bad guys in the Star Wars mythos are the cadre of bounty hunters that Darth Vader hires in The Empire Strikes Back, but one of these ruthless hunters—the sinister-looking, hissing reptile Bossk—may not be such a "bad guy" after all. In 1977, Darth Vader strode through the aftermath of the firefight aboard the Tantive IV and established a fundamental quality of the franchise: Star Wars has the coolest, most menacing villains. While Vader continues to set the bar, the decades have seen him joined by a deluge of memorable bad guys.

Like his fellow bounty hunters to grace the bridge of Vader's Executor, Bossk was initially shrouded in an aura of mystery and dread. He was among the elite of his cold-blooded profession, a reputation that Legends continuity built upon by establishing the Trandoshan as a monster pulled from slasher horror.

Korean actor Lee Min-ho will star in the upcoming movie ‘Bounty Hunters’ alongside Wallace Chung (Monster Hunt), Tiffany Tang (East Meets West), and Karena Ng (Ip Man 3). ‘Bounty Hunters’ is one of a growing list of big-budget joint ventures between Chinese and Korean production companies to be released in 2016.

According to Filmcatalogue.com, the movie centers on a team of bounty hunters gathered by an FBI agent to capture a wanted man. Filming began in August 2015 and features locations in Asia such as South Korea, Hong Kong, China, and Thailand.

Korean director Shin Terra (My Girlfriend is an Agent) is at the helm of this action-adventure film and Edmond Wong of the Ip Man film series penned the script.

The movie has a budget of $10-25 million and is produced by Harmonious Entertainment Shanghai, Starhaus Entertainment of Korea, and Pegasus Motion Pictures of Hong Kong which also produced blockbusters such as All’s Well,...
