Battle Of Jakku Boba Fett
Boba Fett is a major character from the Star Wars franchise. A bounty hunter who was one of the many bounty hunters hired by Darth Vader to find the Millennium Falcon, he is the secondary antagonist in The Empire Strikes Back and a minor antagonist in Return of the Jedi. Boba was a child clone.
That Boba Fett's heavily damaged armor was found on Tatooine and taken by someone else, and that person could then take the mantle of Boba Fett, or use his real name or whatever. While Fett was probably eaten, his armor was probably indigestible.If you look at the timeline, Fett is likely as old as Han Solo is at this point (and an aged Fett could still be out there, but not a bounty hunter anymore), so it would have to be someone new under the mask. Just as Boba was a new face under the mask after Jango. ' Spoiler: Boba is a clone of Jango Fett.
It turns up in one of the movies.' 'There was this whole thing where he was a legitimate character with a developed back story and complex motivation that showed up on this show called Clone Wars. It was pretty neat. The guy who invented the character came up with it, which was a nice touch. I think it's on Netflix.' 'Also - get this - there's a version of The Empire Strikes Back ('Episode V' some call it) where they went to the trouble to make Boba Fett's voice the same voice as the character who played his father. That was one of several clues woven into the movies that strongly suggest the movies released from 1999-2005 take place in the same universe, and if you think about it, are sort of the same story as the ones that came out earlier.
It's pretty crazy. They're connected. Anyway, this version of it can be found on DVD and Blu-ray where such things are sold.'
'Anyway, these sorts of clues are hidden all throughout the movies. Pt 1007 f notice form. The opening crawls are actually numbers if you look at it (I = 1, II= 2/. V = 5, VI = 6).
If you look at it the right way, it hints that this whole thing is meant to tie together.' 'You know, there was a post not a month ago that said what were the immovable objects in the Star Wars canon. The internet records such things.' 'Obviously I got nothing against. (cheers!) It's just the rebooted Fett rumor is so transparently coming from someone (not., in case there's any confusion) who still has an axe to grind against the prequels. That's where all these retcon prequel rumors come from. Don't give 'em any weight.'
So, it looks like we can finally put these rumors to bed. Some may say otherwise, but, Mr. Hidalgo is a Lucasfilm story group member who is in the know when it comes to all things Star Wars, so chances are good this reboot rumor is nothing more than Bantha Poodoo!

Click to expand.Battlefront still causes confusion among some fans, because it's a non-canon game that depicts canon events.albeit in a non-canon, gameplay-mechanic-fun way (there was no starfighter battle over the surface of Hoth that we saw, yet you've got X-wings and TIEs shooting up the place in the game; ROTJ Luke didn't time-travel to Hoth to fight his dad; Ishi Tib and Sullustans weren't among the soldiers on Endor, etc). People get particularly hung up on the Battle of Jakku being part of the game, because they know that's a post-ROTJ canon battle with a lot of 'canon' hype around it. And they'll believe those old links from around the time of Celebration, one in particular pops up with alarming regularity, showing the above Boba image and speculating it's both Jakku and proof that Boba survived the Sarlacc; while the article has an 'update' at the bottom about how people have pointed out that it's Tatooine, the people who cling to that article ignore the obvious Sandcrawler on the left, the different terrain around the SD, and the simple fact that Boba Fett makes perfect sense as a character to show in relation to Tatooine, where his frequent employer based his operations. Back to Battlefront, I'm not sure there is or will be a canonical 'Battle of Tatooine' or 'Battle of Sullust', yet both are featured in the game. And as I noted earlier, a ton of things happen in the battles we do know are canon, Hoth & Endor, that don't happen in ESB or ROTJ during those battles (starfighter attacks, orbital bombardments, 'hero' characters clashing, etc). In the trailer alone, you've got Vader facing off against Han's strike team on the surface.when we know he's busy fighting his son up on the Death Star.The dialogue in the Survival Mode: Tatooine video kinda makes it seem like it takes place before the Battle of Endor, with Ackbar wishing he could see the Emperor's face when he finds out about the Empire's defeat.yet that'd mean the battle took place before Han was rescued from Jabba, and that seems very unlikely.
Jon Favreau has released the first synopsis for his TV series, and it just might introduce the man who stole Boba Fett's armor. Cobb Vanth has already been introduced into the Star Wars canon in Chuck Wendig's Aftermath trilogy, and it sounds a lot like he's about to star in his own show.Favreau's Star Wars TV series has been the subject of much speculation over the last few months. Rumors pointed to, while a handful of set photos hinted at a desert location reminiscent of Tatooine. But solid facts were few and far between; at least until Favreau took to social media to reveal the show's title, and to present.
Until now, the time between the Original Trilogy and the Sequels has been relatively unexplored. As recently as September 2017, there were reports that set after. Only a handful of novels really discussed that time-period, most notably Chuck Wendig's Aftermath trilogy, which chronicled the events leading to the Battle of Jakku, and essentially laid the foundations for any other stories set after Return of the Jedi. That's begun to change, of course, with both Favreau's series and set in the time between the trilogies.
It's safe to assume that both shows will build on the ideas Wendig's novels first brought into play. And here's the interesting thing; the Aftermath trilogy really does feature a ' lone gunfighter' who wears Mandalorian armor, and he's fighting against injustice on the fringes of the galaxy. He's on Tatooine, and - as Luke himself observed in A New Hope - if there's a bright center to the universe, Tatooine is the world farthest from it. The first two books in the trilogy avoided revealing too much about the Mandalorian, but the third revealed his history; the man's name was Cobb Vanth, and he was a slave who was freed after Jabba the Hutt's death.
Stumbling across a set of Mandalorian armor, Vanth and Jabba's old beastmaster, Malakili, fought to prevent new criminal gangs muscling in on Jabba's turf and enslaving Tatooine once again. Although it was never explicitly stated, the Aftermath trilogy strongly implied that Cobb Vanth had stumbled upon Boba Fett's armor. It seems the Sarlacc was badly injured during the events of Return of the Jedi, with the explosion of Jabba's Sail Barge leaving the creature partially exposed. Some stoma-tubes were split open, and industrious Jawas raided them for treasures.
The novel hinted that the Jawas took the Mandalorian armor, and that Vanth purchased it from them. Boba Fett's fate, however, was never revealed; according to Jabba, it took years to be digested inside the Sarlacc, so he may well have still been alive, albeit injured. Related:All this dovetails perfectly with Favreau's description. Cobb Vanth was active as a lawman in the time between the trilogies; he's a solitary gunslinger, wearing the right suit of armor; and he's active on Tatooine, when photos have hinted at a desert setting for The Mandalorian.

In addition, no sooner had the first synopsis been published than Jason Ward appeared on the podcast to report rumors that the character could be Cobb Vanth. Cobb's story in the Aftermath trilogy was a strange one, irrelevant to the main plot and relegated to a series of 'interludes'. It now looks as though those interludes were set up for ideas Lucasfilm intended to explore further down the line - and Cobb Vanth's story is the first to be developed, in his case into a TV series.
