If you’re the kind of LEGO Star Wars minifigure collector who needs to own every single variant of a character, good (or possibly bad) news: there’s an exclusive Jango Fett out there now…
The bounty hunter returned in last year’s 75409 Jango Fett’s Starship and 75433 Jango Fett’s Starship with and without printed arms respectively, but otherwise those two minifigures were identical. However, a third unique variant has now shown up in the official LEGO Star Wars magazine.
As reported by Hoth Bricks, the Jango Fett minifigure included in the latest LEGO Star Wars special edition magazine swaps the black printing that runs down the blue strip on the side of the helmet from the right to the left hand side. The same result can apparently be found across both variants of the magazine (which comes with one of two collector’s tins) and across different countries.
That suggests this isn’t a simple misprint but rather an alternative variant of Jango Fett, although it’s one that probably only the most dedicated of LEGO minifigure collectors will feel the need to hunt down. This issue of the LEGO Star Wars magazine – which was part of the regular series rather than a special edition – turned up in the UK back in late April and is in all likelihood long gone now.
Jango Fett sans printed arms can be had for about £7 on BrickLink at the time of writing. There’s no separate listing for the magazine-exclusive variant as yet, but given there are separate listings for Qui-Gon Jinn’s slightly different shades of brown beard from 2024, there probably will be eventually.
Otherwise, you’ll find the regular version of the bounty hunter (with the helmet printing in question on the right hand side) in 75433 Jango Fett’s Starship, which is available now.
