Last one for you bmil, then you get vote for *bmoc..
What were the 6 lines Boba spoke in both The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi?
hehehhe
1. "As you wish"
2. "He's no good to me dead"
3. "What if doesn't survive, He's worth a lot to me alive"
4. "Put Captain Solo in the Cargo Hold"
5. "Whhuuuuuuaaaaaahhhhhh" - if you can call that a line.... it was a canned effect though, used in MANY films, and not the original actor's voice.
If there were anymore lines, I can't think of them offhand.
Using a false identity, Fett purchased the Slave II and began modifying this new prize for his hunt for Solo.

well....Slave II is a MandalMotors Planetary Defence Ship used by the Madalorian Protectors in the system of Mandal Moonus.....ha! beat that.....lol
MandalMotors Pursuer Enforcement Ship
MandalMotors Pursuer- class patrol ship,popular with Mandalorian police units because itis tough enough to handle pirates but has enough cargo space for standard policing duties.
Slave II is essentially a heavy patrol craft with a superior hull and powerful Torplex military-grade shield generators. Dual Tion Mil/Sci Mil- StarlV engines propel the ship, while three Corellian Engineering x41 maneuvering thrusters are mounted in the port-side stabilizer brace. The three thrusters can be individually directed and provide excellent performance, especially for a heavy patrol ship.
For weaponry, Slave II has forward-firing twin blaster cannons and an ion cannon turret. Fett, always a suspi cious type, has a rear-firing proton- torpedo launcher with a magazine of six torpedoes--an unwelcome surprise for anyone who has decided to follow too closely. Like Slave I, Slave II has a sophisticated sensor array system, although the ship at present lacks the stealth systems of Slave I.
Rumors have suggested that Boba Fett placed five force field-enclosed prisoner cages aboard Slave II. Knowing that his prime target's best friend is a Wookiee, Fett probably also installed molecularly reinforced cell walls and gravitic restraints in his cells.
Fett encountered Solo on the smugglers' moon of Nar Shaddaa, and the Corellian and his companions barely escaped. Slave II jumped into hot pursuit of the fleeing Millennium Falcon (which had been secreted aboard Salic Zen's Starlight Intruder). By cross-checking the Intruder's hyperspace vector, Fett was able to track Solo to the new Imperial capital of Byss. Slave II was severely damaged over Byss when Fett, attempting to follow the Falcon down to the planet's surface, smashed into the planetary shield. The stabilizer bar was ripped off in the crash, and the ship was disabled. All things considered, Fett got off lightly--if Slave II's shields had been down, the shield would have incinerated the ship. Rather than get the ship repaired, Fett has placed Slave II in drydock while retrieving Slave I to continue his pursuit of Han Solo.
MandalMotors
MandalMotors has a rich legacy of designing exceptional starships, especially for the military. The company was only allowed to do business in the Empire after an Imperial "adviser" was placed on the executive board. However, shortly after the death of the Emperor, the company installed a pro-New Republic executive board and has allied itself with New Republic worlds.
Mandal Motors has consturcted some of the finest Starships in the known universe, including Boba Fett's Slave II, and Prince Xizor's Virago.
i surrender to your greater knowledge of Mandalrian ships
/bow
Hehehe. I didn't know all that verbatim, I just knew exactly where to find it on the net. I wasn't sure on a lot of the details and rather than rewrite the thing, I just pasted it.
How about this one: How many actor's have portrated Boba Fett? This will include 6 movies plus the TV specials.
HINT: Voice AND speech actors.....

Yeah, I guess you have points there and I´ve figured along those lines but it still upsets me. I think Trandoshans are cool and should be lethal predators, which they are portrayed as but Bossk isn´t getting much of that sweet lovin´ . It´s a damn shame, I tell you!

Gotta love the Bounty Hunter Wars triology and the Tales of the Bounty Hunters. Damn nice books.
Agreed.... I love Boba's view on the BH trade:
"Everyone dies. It's the final and only lasting justice. Evil exists; it is intelligence in the service of entropy. When the side of a mountain slides down to kill a village, this is not evil, for evil requires intent. Should a sentient being cause that landslide, there is evil; and requires Justice as a consequence, so that civilization can exist. There is no greater good than Justice, and only if law serves Justice is it good law. It is said correctly that law exists not for the Just but for the unjust, for the Just carry the law in their hearts, and do not need to call it from afar. I bow to no one and I give service only for cause."
