Dude, if someone else was wearing your armor for a few years, you'd clean it up good too.
I wouldn’t like the thought of someone wearing my armor, just like if I found out someone I didn’t know wore my pants.
This. 😂
Facts
He wouldn't be a client for the empire .... he would be a service provider for them.
My thoughts exactly
My thought was more basic. He hadnt worn it in a long time and during that time, someone else was marking it up. Those marks werent from his battles, the armor no longer showed just his history.
Thats a good one
Ooh I like that
Yeah I like that.
Like scars telling a story.
Really good thought there and most likely on point. Only thing is im just a little annoyed that he looked like a toy this last episode.
Mando passed him the cans of paint...
"This is the spray"
Lol
Hahhah! good one! XD
HAA... 🤣😂🤣 I needed that laugh...
Oh dear....but go on haha
😂
I think Fett seeing a Mandolorian and the pride he has in his armor, and finally getting it back made him want to restore it. A new proud beginning.
I like this
True enough
I think it will be cool to see when and where he gets his new damage and marks.
We call this "wishful thinking". I am talking about your reasoning.
I have to agree. Boba was always very close to his father but due to Jango being murdered by Mace he ended up being raised by criminals rather than a Mandalorian parent. Since then Boba has faced his own mortality when he nearly died in the sarlaac and is now a middle-aged man looking towards his autumn years. That is enough for most people to take a good hard look at their life and the choices made, let alone someone who had a brush with death. I think Boba is starting down a road to embrace his father's values as I think he recognises that he isn't the kind of man Jango would be proud to call his son.

Indeed.
From what he knew:
-It passed through a sarlacc digestive system;
-Got played around by Jawas and shelved on their dusty rover;
-Was worn for a time by another man who fought, bled and sweat in it.
You wouldn't want to clean up your stuff after all that?
i'd clean it for sure, not sure what i'd do with the scratches though, it's not like I have the perfect color gradient green spray just laying around...
*was worn and bled
@@tanmaydeshpande Corrected. Thanks for pointing out my mistakes, english is not my first language
I think it was the last one, since before, all the nicks in the paint were made by him and the times he got hit whereas the nicks in the armour then were made by someone else
He probably took one look at Mando’s shiny chrome get up and thought, “Fark, I need to up my sheeit!”
"The empire. They're back"
That means he must've been out of the sarlacc long enough to see the empire fall. He didn't sound too thrilled when he saw that cruiser.
Not necessarily,on tattoine we already saw planks with storm tropper heads and vanth story even showed people celebrating the destruction of death star 2 on a holocron,which basically means everyone was aware so even if you come to you senses a few years after fell of empire,you would know.
Which is surprising, seeing as they were probably either his best or his second best (after Jabba) clients.
@@reginaldgickington4793 Even so he probably saw the darkness that shrouded the Empire but being a born survivor he used that to his advantage, I mean you can either work with the status quo and have a materially prosperous life or go against the status quo and live a rebellious, frustrating but possibly honorable life (if the status quo are inherently evil). The latter is riskier when it comes to the sole purpose of survival.
@@reginaldgickington4793 I think he had more jobs with Jabba because he risked questioning Vader when han was being put in carbonate because jabba wanted him so he willing to go farther for jabba then the empire. I do think he gets paid more a job by the empire.
Boba was never too happy about the whole Clones being replaced by Storm Troopers, it was an embarrassment to his fathers Legacy.
I think his clean armor is him starting over with a clean slate
True
That, and give the armor proper respect for saving his bacon while in the Sarlacc.
I didn't like it..he's old armour had history

The Mandalorian is what happens when you have the writers actually research the source material beforehand.
Not even. The mandalorian is what happens when the storytellers have been fans of the source material from childhood. Favreau and Filoni grew up with Star Wars and it likely inspired their drive to be film makers. And it shows.
JJ Abrams and Rian Johnson are fans of themselves. And it shows.
@@HaylonHarroo87 So... the writers have done research on the source material?
@@aramilslaysdemons5170 Rian Johnson and JJ Abrams did their research too and look how that turned out.
It’s the difference between hiring a bodyguard who got certified from a security company or one who is an ex navy seal
U get a different depth of knowledge and thus, care for the job at hand
@@aramilslaysdemons5170 ur not wrong about the research, but I think the research only helps bolster knowledge they already acquired, and their research is probably more extensive cuz their love for the source material is different.
Whereas JJ and Rian were more obsessed with making the Star Wars movies they directed “their own” rather than respecting the source material totally.
@@HaylonHarroo87 JJ has also been a fan of Star Wars since childhood. From my understanding, everything JJ has done in his career was just to get the opportunity to work on Star Wars. It obviously didn't go as he had hoped, considering he had written an entire coherent sequel trilogy before Rian Johnson threw his EP 8 screenplay in the trash.

@@admiralhackett7686 - The Magnificent Seven
Its a matter of honor, the marshall wearing his armor obviously marked it up. therefore the afore mentioned respect for his grinds and battles is tarnished.
I think most of that damage came from the Sarlacc. Stomach acid ate up the paint, cut thru the cloth in Boba’s armor, got in his helmet and gave him those scars.
Either way, you’re right, Cobb didn’t exactly keep it oiled up or anything.
@@chrismatteson1312 i think the explosion of jabbas sail barge might have been a factor, it did explode right above the sarlacc, which might be a reason to how boba escaped and the jawas found him, since they would scavenge the wreckage and his armor while he was passed out
its so disney can put less effort in the toys paintjob
james fraser as a painter, it’s harder to make something look clean than it is to make it look messed up,
Most of the "damage" (really just peeled off paint and a few dents) was already there LONG before the marshall got his hands on it.
He's just a simple man, trying to make his way in the universe
Apparently he's just trying to make his way in the galaxy now. Spending time in a sarlacc pit does things to people.

Came here to day the same. He's starting a new phase in his life. Helping a fellow Mando get his foundling back, rather than cashing in on the enormous bounty? Might as well start fresh and clean. (The black robes look so much better underneath it too!)
“Boba got virtually no action”?!?
Did you not see him drop a seismic charge out on the Tie Fighters?? Arguably the best sound in Star Wars. That, alone, was worth the price of admission.
This is so true.
Literally as soon as I saw those TIEs take off, I turned to my brother and said "He's gonna use seismic charges", and about 7 seconds later "insert iconic sounds here" xD
I was like
He's gonna use the big boom
The original trilogy he didn't have someone to show him up in shiny armor. He couldn't allow himself to look shabby next to Mando.
he had darth vader
Jango taught him to keep his armor clean but not to polish it. Polish draws attention. I dont remember the name of the book but it was about boba when he is 10 during the events leading up to the first battle of Geonosis
When he got back his armor, much of the wear it had was no longer from his previous battles. This is a clean slate.
Yeah, earn his battles scars again.
Moreover, a clean slate with his armor restored to a pristine condition can be representative of his own metaphorical rebirth after having finally recovered it. For so long he was incomplete, but now he is whole again.
@@EmeralBookwise I like that one
Because it's his "resurrection" and thus he wants a fresh start.
Also likely they lost the original outfit and had to make a new one.

@@TheStoryTeller17 @GriffyMurphyJr @Suffs According to Mando - He doesn't consider anyone who takes off their helmet to be a Mandalorian. The definition is so broad that it isn't worth arguing IMO (and yet, it is)
Orrrr he wanted to carry on his father’s image until he lost his armor than he lost himself until he was able reconnect with the armor. Long story short kinda like a Phoenix
Also getting his armor back from another mandalorian living the mandalorian life probably rekindled a lot of pride that probably had been lacking when he was scrabbling as a nomad on Tatooine. Also he had watched this other mandalorian let himself be eaten by a greater krayt dragon so he could kill it. Even for as an acomplished bounty hunter as fett din clearly demonstrated his quality as a fighter before boba even made direct contact.

Maybe he saw Mando and though “damn I should get my act together”
Additionally, it appears that getting paint to stick to beskar metal isn’t terribly easy, and the special paint necessary might not be easy to find (or even the chemistry necessary well known outside of native mandalorians). The evidence for this is even after a fresh paint job, Boba’s armor already has paint chipped away in spots (the paint didn’t bond to the metal). So it’s plausible that Boba did occasionally touch up the paint on his old armor, but it would often chip off so readily that it always looked to be in a state of neglect.
Boba fett's Armor isn't made of Beskar as far as I know

Why Fett cleaned his armor: so Disney can sell toys
I wouldn't mind that
They already do
I'm afraid you missed like 40 years of Star Wars merchandise produced when Lucas was in charge.
Cynical, but true. You easily double your action figures, not counting special editions. Entertaining to watch these lore explanations, but as many of you I grew up with the original Star Wars (Episode IV a New Hope for you younglings) and this whole “epic” was just made up as they wrote the screenplays...deal with the fact that we are not looking at something like The Lord of the Rings, Dune or even Game of Thrones (or any epos that was committed to paper before being filmed). Boba Fett was a cool action figure, but IMO he always felt disappointing in the movies - a few stiff lines in The Empire Strikes Back, some clumsy fighting and death in The Return of the Jedi. He did not even have a name in The Empire Strikes Back - not sure he’s in the *original* credits or not. So in the end he was a bounty hunter with a cool suit that became iconic. I’d be tempted to say that the prequels with their Clone Troopers and Jango Fett gave Boba Fett the real boost in popularity that he enjoys today, that and Cosplay. Again, I loved my big Boba Fett action figure back in the early eighties, but I can’t understand the hype that this creates with fans. Still enjoy the whole Star Wars experience, but guess growing up does affect your outlook on things. Take it as you will but I thought Rogue One was the best Star Wars since, well, Star Wars.
Why my suit never get dirty

Nah, Mando just kept nagging him "clean your armour, this is the way!"

Why did he clean his armour?

Stripping the paint would have made it too obvious so repaint it is.
That actually works well with the idea behind honoring his father. How could he not think of Jango when he first saw Mando?

He's a man who watched his father murdered before his eyes, He's fought literally since childhood, He's becomed a hardened man, cold and calculating, but seeing another Mandalorian, in his pristine armor, much like his father's, and seeing this man basically fighting for his son, much like Jango would have done for him, has to have an emotional impact, even if it's never spoken about, but there would be a bit of understanding of what being a Mandalorian would, and should be. Holding your honor to the example of what's in front of you. Maybe Boba couldn't save his father, but he can help this Mandalorian, save his son, and spare another his pains. We're literally looking at a reborn Boba, a Boba Fett with an actual mission that means something personal to him. Not just a cold Bounty. The man with a personal stake, will always fight harder than a paid outsider. I think we're gonna see Boba a whole lot more flushed out. It's an interesting premise.
What an excellent analysis. I never got the parallel between mando and jango
Thank you.
Great comment.
This is 10000000% spot on and it’s exactly what the writers intended. Boba knows what’s it’s like to lose someone. Seeing Mando lose his child reminded him of his trauma. He knows Jango would react the same way if he were abducted.
Boba fett is a clone
I feel like his cleaning it symbolized a new path he was on. One of patience and equal justice. A clean slate
The original dings and scratches were reminders of his past missions, someone else wore his armor, therefore destroying his heritage. He repainted it as a fresh start!
Yeah that’s true
It represents the “rebirth” of boba fett. Hence the cleaning up of his armor and why it looks so good. It is a way to show the audience a powerful symbol without directly stating it.
Exactly

Mandalorian armor has been the pinnacle of coolness in scifi nerd-dome for decades, and seeing the touched up variant they gave Fett warms my nerdy heart. The helmet looks much more proportionate to the body. The little details like black cloth covering otherwise plain areas of the suit, and the better coloration of the look all together, it just fits together perfectly. There are so many little details this show has done right. I am thoroughly impressed and can't wait to see what comes next.
Boba Fetts releases a seismic charge "He virtually got no action in that episode", he did the whole action.

He was jealous of mando's shiny armor so he decided to clean it up.

Boba must've been pissed off that someone else basically ruined his armor.

He probably just thought “wow I can barely see the green now I’d better repaint this”
Man he makes it difficult to just say he did a paint job on his suit
It would make sense, from my perspective, that he re-furbished his armor after knowing someone else had been wearing it and adding their own dents and dings. I think of it as more of a "cleaning someone else's filth off" move...or something along those lines.
He’s a changed man he serves no-one and now sees how terrible the empire was even after all those contracts.
He probably never really liked the Empire, they were just the ones paying his bills.
He never served anyone, he was and still is a bounty hunter
It’s simple. He didn’t want Din to look cooler than him.
I wonder how long his ship was sitting at Mos Eisley spaceport without getting clamped, towed, stolen or dismantled?
Who says it wasn't clamped or towed? Probably a pretty penny to get it back to.
I wouldn’t want to be the guy who took Boba Fett’s ship...
He probably had it parked at Jabba's palace and (according to Legends) hitched a ride with Dengar after he managed to escape the sarlacc to get back. He may have lived in the Slave I while he searched for his armor in the sand dunes. Since the tuskens were keen on survival in the dunes, Boba may have adapted to using their equipment while combing the sand for his armor so he could bare the heat
in the boba fett books, he says jango taught him to keep his armor slightly scuffed up so as to not draw too much attention to himself. he did indeed wear the battle scars as badges of honor and a wearable form of "street cred", but the underlying thought process was that beskar that is too shiny and new makes you prone to frequent attempted robberies, as we see repeatedly with Din Djarin
I am legitimately the happiest I’ve ever been about Star Wars, to know my favorite character didin’t die in a sand octopuses stomach.
Boba looking like a total boss wiping those troopers out. Huge skill gap between him and mando imo. They needed to show him this way. Plus Slave 1 wrecking havoc. Loved it and I'm a Vader fan.
Me too and we finally get to see him in action like in the comics and the books!
I KNEW HE WAS ALIVE
It's Bescar, the armor is nigh indestructible, the paint is not.
His armor is not pure Beskar like Din Djarin’s. It’s an alloy comprised of Beskar and likely many other less durable metals.

Mando’s shiny armor made him jealous so he cleaned it up
I think you were right about the "Battle Scars" but that was before he lost his armor.
To a Mandalorian, even an unofficial one, losing one's armor is a great shame. All those battles, all those victories would mean nothing now.
My take is that he refurbished his armor because A) it probably really needed it after the Sarlacc Pit, and B) it's a symbolic gesture he's starting over. Fresh start, fresh paint to be marred by his battles.
Plus there were a lot of battle scars that weren’t his from battles he hadn’t fought
I agree. But when I saw that fresh clean paint for the 1st time im like WTF!?
Boba couldn't care less about his Mandalorian heritage. He only cares about his father.
@@dexeronstarsurge true.
He is starting a new life. So much so that the galaxy’s finest bounty hunter isn’t interested in the bounty on the child, he just wants his armor. Cleaning it is a symbol of a fresh start.
"I'm sure they will make up for it in the finale." *Sigh* I guess there is always the Book of Boba Fett to look forward to
“Ew this armour dirty why did I used to wear it like this lemme paint it over”
I think it represents that after the last 5 years and almost dying, he is a new man, and is trying to go a different way.
He found that Rustoleum Spruce Green way out there, very impressive.
Getting the right green is difficult, no matter what universe you're in, lol.
Mando was the one who painted and repaired it as a thank you to Fett. He even used the beskar staff to rebuild some parts. They stopped by the armorer offscreen for a refit.
It's a fresh start for Boba since he got his armour back. All the dings and paint scrapes are a badge of honour.

I think there are 3 main reasons Boba cleaned up his armour.
1.) It was a lot more scuffed and scratched when he got it back than when he had it in Return Of The Jedi.
2.) He is travelling with a mandalorian who he knows has reservations about letting him keep the armour anyway and the only thing keeping Din from trying to reclaim it is Boba treating it as a precious family heirloom.
3.) It is much easier to create the spare suits, toys, CGI models and art, etc with a clean design rather than having to match specific battle damage perfectly.
I figured he repainted it to reflect him being reborn.
I see it as a representation of Boba Fett with a “clean” slate and starting over as a new man.
Also when another figure of Boba Fett is released it won’t be yet another similar look. It will be a new look that’s worth picking up.
Bobba: Where's the Home Depot?
Din: This is the Way
I think Fett seeing the zealous respect Mando has for his own armor is what did it. He sees what he always envisioned his father as in Mando, and with it a new found respect for his people, and in turn, his armor.
Why does everyone keep saying cleaned, it has clearly been repainted.
Well, you can't put on a new coat of paint if the metal isn't clean, then it won't actually adhere to the armor and instead flake off.
In order to repaint some don't you need to clean it first.
@@Ziton98 not always and still that’s why he said both...
Not completely repaired. The helmet still have the dent
@@MrIronhat apparently u cant read
Launching that seismic charge was all the action I needed from him last episode.
I think when he heard of a Mandalorian on Tatooine in season 1, it "awoke" a part of him, to reconnect with his own past glory and hearing things in a spice bar like "Is that Boba Fett?". Then he found Feneck tracking Mando, and after seeing him work with Cobb Vanth, it made him realize Mando is the real deal.
I love that it is repainted in very flat, non metallic paints. After 40 years it's nice to see a cool variation like that, and it makes it more vibrant. Looks like an action figure paint job!
He is starting over. New paint. New man. Redeemed.
You call releasing a literal nuke that breaks the sound barrier no action.
Though crowd.
Yea wrecking 2 tie fighters with a seismic charge is apparently "doing nothing".
Fact
@@nobodyshome6792 seeing that again was fantastic. But from the perspective of Boba it was just pressing a button.
Ikr I don’t see why people always expect every episode to be filled with insane amounts of action. Like not every episode is gonna have finale level action and not every character is gonna have tons of screen time every episode.
@@Ockerlord I'm just saying it was actually two switches not a button 😂
Rest in peace Jeremy Bulloch. I am grateful for the time you have brought to my childhood.
i think he cleaned up his armour because the scratches symbolises every kill he had and victory so when he had fallen into the sarlaac pit he believed that he had to start over and that he wanted to restart his streak again
He just was happy to have his armor back, so he restored it (because he has a mental connection to it)
Metal
I just wish they would have had boba say “we won’t be seeing them again” after dropping those tie fighters with the seismic charge
Trueeeeeeeeeee
They missed that little line, but it would have been really cool if he did say that.
I’m kinda surprised they did miss that considering all the Easter eggs in Mandolorian.
He he he
Maybe because his father had been wrong about seeing Obi-Wan again?
I see it more as a symbol of "rebirth" than a new found appreciation.
The matte paint a long with the black robes looks tight.
I think its a combination of loosing his armor, time to think back and reflect on his heritage , and Din honoring him with recovering/giving his armor back to him. Like a Mandalorian reborn. He is finally and truly one of them.
after a lot of years of another person has been wearing his armour, boba fett cleaned because of covid.
@HosalAmaris because it’s a long long time ago in a galaxy far far away. There was no Covid back then. Or maybe it reached us only just now?
I thought he cleaned his armor to get rid of smells that were not his. A total stranger wearing it for a few years. It smelled like body odor bad breath and ball sweat.
...not to mention Sarlacc stomach acid
Jango wore Beskar Armor, Boba's Armor was said to be regular Durasteel mixed with Scavenged Beskar parts and was a work in progress. He blew up Jango's helmet trying to kill Mace Windu.
Agreed, that refurbished armor looks amazing. I love it.
Boba Fresh!
I feel it was a long time coming. I honestly like this new look for Boba a lot. Both the cleaned up repainted armor and his black Tusken Raider robes.
You have to honor those who died fighting and protected your race until their last breath. It's fitting from Boba to clean his armor and wear it shiny and with pride, as another battle comes near them. Can't wait for Friday's episode!
I like your theories but I'd add to them that when he got the armor back it had new battle marks that weren't from his battles. But the main reason for cleaning it is that it reflects his fresh start with the armor.
I just wonder why Din and a lot of the other characters didn't seem to recognize Boba Fett. He was one of the most infamous and best bounty hounters at his time and well known.
Well, wouldn’t Boba be around 60 or so, and Mando only 20-30? Plus he was a child of the Watch, rescued in the Great Purge, maybe everyone thought Boba died in the Sarlaac pit when Han knocked his jetpack in the desert in Return of the Jedi? Boba was laying low on Tatooine looking for his armor.
Yeah, I’ve thought about that as well. But the Star Wars galaxy is pretty big, which might explain it. Plus he was somewhat irrelevant since he supposedly died several years ago. Also, many characters had never heard of Jedi, despite them being an extremely prominent part of Star Wars lore. Of course, this is partially due to the empire wiping out their records, but still.
Even so, it's a galaxy. Galaxies are so immensely, overwhelmingly huge it's ridiculous. That's why a generation in less than half a decade could legit think the Jedi were never a thing. Think about all the stuff and people you don't know about or question the validity of on a place as small as a planet. Now amplify that to literally thousands of planets. No matter how popular a dude is, he's gonna be unknown by some people and places.
Plus the Mandalorian has been purposefully exploring parts of Star Wars that weren't as relevant and explored previously (though def been mixing in known stuff too).
@@mokyan7 Boba Fett's about 42, give or take a year. If Palpatine, through Dooku, ordered the Kamino cloners to start the Clone army around the same time as SW:TPM, that was 32 years before the battle of Yavin, and The Mandalorian takes place 10 years after the battle of Yavin. He's a rough lookin' 42, to be sure, lol.
@@elaguajdo being in the belly of a huge pit creature does that to you I guess.
