Star Wars “Prototype Armor” Boba Fett Super Shogun Figure by Funko x Super7

Yesterday, Funko announced a surprise third colorway of its super popular Boba Fett Super Shogun Star Wars figure!!! Released exclusively at the brand spanking new Funko online store, the “Prototype Armor” Boba Fett Super Shogun features the all-white color scheme (with black facemask) that was originally envisioned for the character by designer Ralph Mcquarrie. Looks amazing don’t you think!?! If The Blot had won the Powerball lottery last night this figure would soooo be mine!

The Star Wars “Prototype Armor” Boba Fett Super Shogun stands a whopping 24” tall, features 3 points of articulation, and includes all of the features that you’d expect from an authentic Jumbo: free rotating wheels on the bottom of his feet, spring-loaded missile firing jetpack and wrist launcher, and comes with metallic foil stickers. Utilizing the same techniques implemented by Japanese toy manufacturers in the 1970s, this Star Wars Super Shogun is constructed from durable, blow-molded polyethylene with a painted vinyl helmet.

This exciting new collectible is limited to just 400 pieces and can be purchased exclusively at Funko-Shop.com for $200 each.

Star Wars “Empire Version” Boba Fett Super Shogun Figure by Super7 x Funko

The Blot almost woke up my sleeping kids last night when I freaking squealed like a little girl after randomly visiting Super7’s online store and noticing they’d posted the all new Star Wars “Empire Version” Boba Fett Super Shogun vinyl figure!!! I’ve been waiting years for this figure to finally be released to the general public and it happened this week. Thank you Super7 and Funko, who have teamed up to release this perfect mash-up of Star Wars and Jumbo Machinder toys (marketed in the US as Shogun Warriors).

The Star Wars “Empire Version” Boba Fett Super Shogun features a color scheme based on the character’s appearance in Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back and stands a whopping 24” tall! Each figure includes all of the features that you’d expect from an authentic Jumbo: free rotating wheels on the bottom of his feet, spring-loaded missile firing jetpack and wrist launcher, and comes with metallic foil stickers. Utilizing the same techniques implemented by Japanese toy manufacturers in the 1970s, this Star Wars Super Shogun is constructed from durable, blow-molded polyethylene with a painted vinyl helmet. I cannot wait to get my hands on this release!

Collectors can order this amazing Boba Fett Super Shogun now (yes, it’s actually in stock!) at Entertainment Earth for $199.99 here

Star Wars Celebration Exclusive Boba Fett & Shadowtrooper Super Shogun by Super7 & Funko

Funko has announced its newest collaboration with Super7 will be debuting this week at Star Wars Celebration 2015, and The Blot can’t wait! After a five year delay, the Star Wars Super Shogun toy line is finally being extended with the release of the epic Boba Fett and Shadowtrooper Super Shogun figures! While these are being marketed as Star Wars Celebration 2015 exclusives, I have a hard time believing the Boba Fett figure, with all that tooling, won’t be seeing a wider release. Plus, I really need one in my collection! The last I heard it was only the Shadowtrooper, which is just an all black edition of the original Stormtrooper Super Shogun, that would be a Celebration exclusive.

Both the Boba Fett and Shadwotrooper Super Shogun vinyl figures by Super7 and Funko stand 24” tall, have wheeled feet, and feature rocket blasting weapons (left fist and jetpack launcher for Boba and left fist for the Shadowtrooper). Both of these massive figures can be purchased at the Funko Star Wars Celebration booth #1410 this week.

Toy Fair 1st Look: Boba Fett & Shadowtrooper Star Wars Super Shoguns by Super7 & Funko

After first being teased almost five years ago (seen here), the Boba Fett Super Shogun vinyl figure is finally being released! Just like the ReAction figure toy line, the Star Wars Super Shogun line will now be produced as a collaboration between Super7 and Funko. Fans went crazy for the original Stormtrooper Super Shogun, but after all this time The Blot honestly thought this project had been abandoned. Now not only are we getting a Boba Fett Super Shogun, but S7 and Funko are expanding the line to include a Shadowtrooper as well. Just check out this awesome picture from Funko’s Instagram feed, which shows both figures on display at Toy Fair 2015.

Star Wars x Super7 Boba Fett Super Shogun Teaser Image

Super7’s hotly anticipated collaboration with Star Wars, the Stormtrooper Super Shogun, was officially released over the weekend and there was an extra special teaser included on the figure’s packaging…a teaser image for the upcoming Boba Fett Super Shogun!!!


Not only that, but the packaged noted that the Stormtrooper Super Shogun was the 1st in a series, so hopefully there’ll are even more Star Wars Super Shoguns in the works. As you know, Boba Fett is one of The Blot’s favorite Star Wars characters, so this is definitely going to be a must get for me.

Star Wars x Super7 Stormtrooper Super Shogun Packaging

Super7 recently unveiled the packaging of its upcoming Star Wars collaboration, the limited edition 24 inch Stormtrooper Super Shogun. Both the figure’s color packaging and cardboard shipping carton look awesome, and I love the way they’ve modeled it after the packaging of old school Super Shogun figures from long ago (see the second photo below).



Each figure also includes two torso stickers, one in English and one in Japanese. Just from the packaging alone, you can really tell the love and passion that was put into this product by the good folks at Super7, and The Blot can’t wait to see the final version of the 24” Stormtrooper Super Shogun in person.


The Star Wars x Super7 Stormtrooper Super Shogun is currently available for pre-order directly from Super7 here. The figure retails for $299.00, and even at that price these amazing retro figures won’t last long.

Super7 x Star Wars Stormtrooper Super Shogun

Both toy collectors and Star Wars fans alike have been waiting for an official announcement concerning this amazing collaboration between Super7 and Lucasfilm Ltd. for a very long time, and yesterday that announcement was finally released! Utilizing the same techniques implemented by Japanese toy manufacturers in the 1970s, the Super Shogun Stormtrooper is constructed from durable, blow-molded polyethylene with a painted vinyl helmet.


The Star Wars Stormtrooper Super Shogun stands a whopping 24 inches tall and includes all of the features that you expect from an authentic Jumbo: free rotating wheels on the bottom of his feet, and a spring-loaded Rocket Punch firing fist! The figure is articulated at the neck and shoulders, and includes a removable, highly-detailed BlasTech E-11 laser blaster. The blaster even features a posable stock that unfolds from below the barrel. Collectors of both Japanese and Star Wars memorabilia are sure to be impressed with the care taken to fuse the disparate concepts into a new unique entity.


Packaged in an illustrated gift box with iconic graphics from both franchises, each Stormtrooper is individually serial numbered as part of this one time limited edition production run. As a special bonus, metallic foil stickers are included for you to customize the torso with the character name in English or in Japanese. The 24” Super7 x Star Wars Super Shogun Stormtrooper will retail for $300 each and will go be available through www.starwars.super7store.com soon, a new dedicated mini-website launched in celebration of this figure’s impending release.
