Star Wars: 10 Things You Didn't Know About Jango Fett

9. Jango Fett Armour Almost Looked Very Different

Star Wars Jango Fett Facts
Lucasfilm

First seen during his son's appearances in the Original Trilogy, Jango's iconic beskar armour is up there as one of the coolest get-ups ever to land on the big screen.

Boba would eventually change up the colour scheme a little, shifting away from the silver and blue seen during Attack of the Clones and opting for a green look with the odd hints of red and gold.

But there was actually a moment before Jango's Episode II debut when the armour looked entirely different to the version donned by the bounty hunter during his duels with the likes of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Mace Windu.

According to StarWars.com, Jango's suit was nearly white, exactly like the clone troopers that would be created thanks to his genetic template.

Boba Fett's original design, created by visual effects art director Joe Johnston and concept artist Ralph McQuarrie, was similarly all-white, too. But Lucas soon decided (via StarWars.com) that he wanted the armour to be painted up, with additional dents and scratches added to the suit that needed to look like it was made up of pieces picked up from different places.

So, we've twice been robbed of some undeniably gorgeous, all-white bounty hunter threads!
