Ever heard of "Darth Vader's Star Destroyer Playset"? Kenner didn't want to
call the playset for the ship "The Executor".
I don't know that they wouldn't call it Slave I, mind you, just that it is
possible for them to change the name if they think it would sell better. After
all, what's worse- calling the ship Slave I, or putting the little captive Han
in it?

| (...) I doubt they'd go with "Bounty Hunter Ship" though - too generic. If they change the name, it'll probably be to something like "Boba Fett's Starship" or something else with the magic name "Boba Fett" in it... J (25 years ago, 15-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)
