Boba Fett has retired

[Funkyred]

just read a statement on the boba fett fan club that JB had announced his retirement from the convention circuit. I had the pleasure of meeting him , his wife and Daniel Logan at the sane time last year and was so honoured to have him sign my bucket .
Happy retirement Mr Fett and thank you

He was standing just next to me when I asked my wife to marry me and he was the first to congratulate us. I will never forget this moment and he is a part of it. A real gentleman and funny guy. Thank you for everything JB!

Well good luck to Mr Jeremy Bulloch as finally now he does not have to spend his golden years plagued at conventions and maybe now George Lucas can take his money sucking claws out of his poor back

I regret not getting a chance to meet him in the past, but at least he will still be accepting send-in signings per the information on that BBFC posting. I can still get a bucket signed one day!

Good for him, he should enjoy retirement with his family. Disappointing he won't be at Celebration but he's been great the past few decades with cons! End of an era for sure! I met him twice and he was always a gentlemen!

Well that sucks... I never met him. I wish him the best.

So, I just "finished," painting my helmet, but I didn't do my white thumb print. My plan was that at the next con Jeremy was at, I was going to (pay for a signature) and ask him if he would do it for me. I thought that'd be super cool to have Boba Fett's thumb print on Boba Fett's helmet. But I've met him, and he has signed my helmet, and while it's a selfish bummer for me, I'm happy that he's retiring and enjoying time with his family

Was in the middle of the helmet paint up so had him sign our side arm in Orlando. A very gracious man.

I met him and got his autograph on my very first 501st Legion troop. The man is awesome. I hope he enjoys his retirement.

I was lucky enough to meet him at his last US appearance. Such a sweet guy.

Aye, a hunter to be modeled from.... that all us were cast from that super-mold.

Farewell!

Very fortunate that I was able to meet him at Celebration 7 in Anaheim. Stand up guy. I hear he comes to Victoria every now and again (great place to retire). Would be so cool to bump into him at a grocery store

Jeremy has always been a crowd favorite at the Cons. Super great guy and always loved to talk to the fans.
I wish him a long and happy retirement. He's certainly earned it!

The land of the newlywed and the nearly dead. I miss my hometown!

Got to meet him for the first time last year at SWCO. He asked to take a picture with my Mando helmet...but signed my Boba Fett!

 

[Jesuit24]

I met him a couple of times. The first time, only briefly to get my jetpack missile signed. The second time, I got a picture and hung out with him for half an hour. He's one of the nicest guys to meet, I'm just sad I won't get a chance to get my upgraded costume signed. But I hope he enjoys his retirement.

 

[Ghostphoenix01]

Glad I got to meet him 3 times and got the chance to take my 11 year old son to meet him one of those times. Sad to see him retire but him and his family deserve it!

 

[tterrell]

He's touched so many of us!
If you have a pic w/you and Jeremy, please post here.

When I asked my wife to marry me in front of 160 501st members, 100 other cosplayers and maybe 400 viewers Jeremy Bulloch and Daniel Logan where standing close to us wondering what just happened (they don't speak German ) and where the first congratulators. We have a signed Boba picture above our bed to remember that day...
