I obtained the Slave-1 set shortly after its release. The big let down
for me are the accessories for the figurine. To be more specific, I really
hate the combining of Boba Fett's helmet and jetpack into one-piece. If I
were a younger lego enthusiast, I'd be a little upset that I couldn't use that
cool backpack without that helmet (or vice versa). Sadly, this piece is one
of a few new headwear from the SW theme that don't seem to fit quite
correctly. The Padme hair and the Qui Gon hair are the other two. But the
bad fit of the headgear dosen't bother me as much as the helmet/jetpack does.
