Its like Thrawn and the Tie Defender show up in Rebels but its different from Legends and you can't assume any of the Legends stuff is true, indeed some is contradicted by the new version.

[@GGrey1975]

Colors are suppose to have meanings when it comes to a Mandalorian & their armor, but some of that is Legends. Looking at Boba's Suit; Green is suppose to symbolize 'Duty', though to what or whom is unclear (to the All Mighty Credit? He was a Bounty Hunter/Merc after all). Bo-katan's Blue is mean to represent "Reliability"... I'll leave that be for now... The shoulder is interesting when one looks at all what the symbolism can mean (of wearing one's emotions on their sleeve, considering the left is nearest to one's heart). The base color of the piece is a Marigold orange/yellow; which could in Cannon (for Orange) represents "a Lust for Life", while Yellow (as in Gold) is of "Vengeance" or (in fanon as Yellow) is a sign of "Remembrance". Red is meant for "Honoring a Parent", & with the Mythosaur Sigil on said shoulder painted with should speak Volumes of what Boba believes, even if he comes off as uncaring about. Note; recall that Boba didn't get upset with either of the Night Owls denounced he was a Mandalorian or worthy of his armor. Though he did get in Bo-Katan's face with the "Prince" statement after she spoke ill of Jango with the corrective retort of, "Don't you mean donor?" (hence her disrespecting Boba's claim of who his father was & Jango's worthiness of being called a parent). Even a "simple Man(dalorian) making his way through the Galaxy," that was crossing a line and why his retort of "Princess" was meant to be an equal barb to her - reminding Bo-Katan of her personal short-comings as a leader. (Sorry about the tangent, and might be reading too deeply into) The sigil on the upper right torso is in White, which is suppose to mean a new start. This can lead to a lot of speculations; While in Legends, it may have been explained as Jaster's symbol though as what was it tp mean (Jaster's Clan that Jango/Boba would now be a part of as a Foundling Line, Journeyman Protector's Sigil, that of the 'True Mandalorians', or as something else). The droplet & the grain-stalk can have many meanings, as such I'm not going to get into. The letter doesn't seem to match anything I have found in the Mandalorian font (unless it is mirrored, then there are 3 possibilities), though in the Aaurebesh font it might be a stylized 'Dorn''/D letter. The rest of the Symbolism for this is even harder to give specifics on.

I think Boba Fett’s armor might be the armor Jango wore in his old Mandalorian days, and not the one from AOTC that Boba blew up, which is probably one that Jaster gave to him. Which is why their names are in it. It would make sense that Jango would want him to wear that one since he wanted him to carry on Jaster’s legacy.

Yes, it is Jango's original armor. In Jango's Legends comic we see Jango in that armor with Jaster. I do believe that episode in Mando more or less makes that comic canon again. At least some parts of it.

Until we get more details I like to think Jabba's barge crashed down on the Sarlacc and killed it. Boba climbed out but was covered in gastric acid which explains the scars we saw. He stripped down all his acid covered cloths and left, got rescued by Tuskans who got him back on his feet. That would explain the Tuskan stick he used to fight the Stormtroopers. The burning barge attracted Jawas who also found the armor which explain Cobb's story.

If you look at the rest of his armor, all of the blaster bolt pits are still there.

Let's not forget that beskar requires a special forge to melt, and even the dark saber has difficulty getting it even hot enough to glow. I doubt Boba has anything in Slave-I up to the task, and thus just re-painted it.

Man the hate comments i got on that comment made me laugh, i guess they were around in the 1980s and already knew about mandalorians???

[@inod5656]

Yeah real world wise that statement is absolutely true. The whole mandalorian thing is based on boba in the OT. Canon wise he is not a mandalorian. Not even close. He is the clone of a deserted and thereby former mandalorian who was not even a born mandalorian, but a foundling. He only can proove to be the rightfull owner of his armor.

[@Klaaism]

Aye even back then what Boba was and what Mandalorians are was constantly shifting and being ret-conned. Though imho the worst retcon was throwing out Republic Commando/Karen Travis lore, which is a shame as the music alone was epic.

[@mtdewxtreme669]

I love how u opened the video and i think boba fett is a great symbol for little things getting bigger and better, to me hes the symbol of the star wars cult following he represents the core fanbase that helped grow starwars, if trying to better himself and leaving his criminal past is behind him is the theme maybe hell try to make tatooine a better place idk itd be in line with his sense of justice

The letter in the Jester Marial sigil is simply the "F" from the Fender logo, meaning that Boba Fett on top of being a bounty hunter also plays bass guitar, what a badass !

[@renascitur7051]

Technically, bo was wrong when she said that boba wasn't a mandalorian. Anyone can be a mandalorian so long as they follow their path. It's why the mandalorian army was huge during the old republic. They take anyone willing to enlist and trained them.

[@DarkLordDiablos]

Its funny that you mentioned Jaster Mareel considering when Jaster met young Jango, Jango wasn't a Mandalorian but the son of a Farmer which was retconned later by the game SWTOR when they mad a Clan Fett and made all the voice actors New Zealanders.

[@willflint5014]

Jango was a foundling, in a way Boba was a foundling. Yes, while being a clone of Jango and unaltered in anyway, he wasn’t the natural born son of Jango, but Jango fathered him and loved him just the same. Sorry if this wasn’t a clear as I wanted it to be. I saw someone else comment something similar a while back.

[@fogdragon5566]

We all forget that jango/ boba are descended from the second in command of the second in command of the mandolorians during the mandolorian wars

[@stefanhoover9888]

This is kinda controversial but I think bobas armour looked better at when it was all beaten up rather that the cleaned version.

[@legoinglegion458]

Nice video Star Wars Comics! I'm really glad that Boba kept the Mythosaur symbol as well as Jaster's symbol. I'm also glad that Boba abandoned the Wookiee scalps. I wonder if Bossk pressured Boba to kill Wookiees and keep their scalps as trophies in Boba's younger years because Trandoshan culture revolves around hunting Wookiees. Maybe while Boba was in the sarlacc he realized that he had been manipulated into becoming a more violent man by Bossk, Aurra Sing, and the other bounty hunters who raised him. It would be so cool Bossk turned up in the Book of Boba Fett (Sure, he may have been on Jabba's barge but Bib Fortuna was and we know he survived) and asked where the Wookiee scalps were and then realized that Boba regretted what he had done. Maybe Bossk could say something like "I raised you to be a ruthless hunter but now I see you are weak!" and then they could become enemies. It would be so cool to see a fight between Fett and Bossk! Also I've been wondering how you get images and even footage for your videos from Disney +. Do you have as special agreement with Disney that allows you to take screenshots and screen recordings? Because as far as I know, Disney + has a program running that blacks out any screenshot a user tries to take. If you do have an agreement with Disney, how did you get it?

[@Unchainedmaple888]

In the Clone Wars, we also see numerous Death Watch members with the Mythosaur skull painted onto their armor

[@missjayspeechley9213]

I'm sure news that Boba fed a sarlac would have gotten around. So, everyone thought he was dead. We did. So it's likely Bo Katan assumed the person in Boba's armour was a clone that acquired it from the other end of the sarlac.

[@coreymoore1443]

He repainted the armor because it’s easier to maintain continuity when he’s your main character. Otherwise they have to keep touching up the “bad” paint job between takes.

[@sportosp-0158]

That actually makes less sense than keeping dinged up and scratched / scraped. With so much patina, who would notice one more missing fleck of paint? Now that it's re-painted, the studio / costume crews would have to maintain it even better.

[@this.rat.productions.]

to me i always sort of thought boba was trying to offend real mandolorians by wearing the mythosaur as he didnt earn the sigil but wears it anyway. but now when he repaints the armour hes thinking about it completely differently and instead chooses to keep it on to celebrate his ancestral culture. the difference being now the symbol has a positive meaning for him rather than negative and i think that shows just how much character growth hes experienced in all this time.

[@gaeb611]

Honestly, it’s kind of a waste for Boba to just rule a criminal underworld. He could be Mandalore if he real wanted to.

the sigil on the chest(Journeyman Protector, the organization existed before the symbol) was made to honor Clan Fett when they died refusing to surrender Mand'alor to Tor Vizla, the wheat symbolizes humble origins, the circle represents Resol'nare, the fact that the wheat exits the circle displays actions above and beyond what is called for, the droplet is to symbolize the willingness to spill every drop of blood in battle, and the letter is Mando'a it's the letter roh which is commonly associated with fidelity/loyalty

I don't know if you mentioned it in other videos, but you potentially missed another detail - his classic suit bore a White undersuit, which is now Black. If you go over the traditional colours of Mandalore, he's traded "A New Beginning" for "Justice" by symbolism. His prime colours are Black, Green, Red and Yellow/Gold - Justice, Duty, Honouring a Parent, and Vengeance. So pairing his red with Jaster's symbol is likely the prime tipoff - He wears the Mythosaur, he bears Jaster's crest, and openly bears declaration he's honouring a parent. Some of it's Legends material, but Mandalorians are bound by honour primarily, and this is a big case of Heraldry in action.
