A masterclass in 3.75-inch engineering, Princess Leia Organa (Boushh Disguise) was released in 2019 as part of Wave 20. This figure captures Leia’s daring infiltration of Jabba’s Palace from the opening act of Return of the Jedi. While the Boushh disguise has been a staple of the line since the Kenner era, this TVC version utilized Photo-real technology and a completely overhauled sculpt to create the definitive version of the character.
Technical Details & Sculpt
- Character Likeness: The head sculpt underneath the helmet is a highlight of the 2019 wave, featuring a remarkable likeness to Carrie Fisher. The Photo-real paint application accurately captures her determined expression and braided hairstyle, a massive leap forward from the painted eyes of previous iterations.
- Attire & Deco: The figure is clad in the complex, tan-and-brown bounty hunter armor. The sculpt features incredible textural detail, from the reinforced bandolier to the environmental life-support canisters on the back. The paint deco includes a subtle "Tatooine dust" wash, giving the armor a gritty, functional appearance.
- Articulation: Featuring premium TVC articulation, including ball-jointed wrists and rocker ankles. Despite the bulk of the thermal detonator belt and the specialized armor plates, the figure maintains a wide range of motion for dynamic "thermal detonator standoff" poses.
- Display Utility: This figure is the centerpiece of any Jabba’s Palace or Han Solo Carbonite display. She is best posed alongside Chewbacca (VC141) or facing off against Jabba the Hutt to recreate the tense negotiation in the throne room.
Accessories & Equipment
Leia is heavily armed for her mission. She includes a removable bounty hunter helmet (which fits perfectly over the head without looking oversized), a ubese electrostaff (halberd-style), and her signature thermal detonator. The detonator is a small, separate accessory that fits securely into her left hand, allowing for the iconic "threat" pose from the film.
