I'm sorry but I've never understood the fascination with him. I love Star Wars but have always felt he is massively overrated by the fanbase

Character itself is blah.

Outfit looked cool. I remember when I got the action figure after Empire was released, it was one of my favorites. Got both the 4" and 12" (both long, long gone).

The suit design was cool enough that it got thrown into the prequels (Jango), and if I understand it, also the cartoons (Mandelorian armor). For the young kid making his own imaginary adventures (sometimes outside the Star Wars boundaries), it was one of the few suits that could translate over to another setting. Jetpack and a wrist-mounted rocket.

But yeah, the actual character is pretty meh. There is the bounty hunter mystique, but he's never done anything onscreen worth mentioning.
