Mickey Mouse meets Boba Fett

This one is a mix-up sandwiched between the Star Wars villain Boba Fett and the cartoon character Mickey Mouse. I don’t think their parents met in the past, but that Mickey seems tired, wanted to be neutral like Switzerland, that he put on a negative character’s outfit. Is it a good one? A bad one? Nah, it’s… Mickey Fett.
This is the work of Tom from England, a strange combo, but hilarious and cute as well. Now, a bit of a background about these two characters. I’ll start with the villain so I can create a happy ending.

Boba Fett is a character in the Star Wars fictional universe. A reward hunter hired by Darth Vader to find the Millennium Falcon; he is a major villain in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back (1980). Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones (2002) sets up Boba Fett’s back story as a clone of Jango Fett, a bounty hunter who hoists Boba as a son. The Star Wars Expanded Universe expands on Fett’s origins and career as a bounty hunter. Fett’s air of danger and secrecy has created a faction following the character, which has been merchandised across multiple media. Fett might be part of the live-action Star Wars series under development.


It’s one of the top five best-selling Star Wars action figures, and Boba Fett-related products are “among the most expensive” Star Wars merchandise; one of the rocket-firing prototypes sold at auction for $16,000 in 2003.

Mickey Mouse is one of the most beloved characters created by American director and cartoonist Walt Disney. Beginning in 1928 with the animated film Plane Crazy, the mouse dressed in red pants became a symbol of American cinema and culture. It’s also the protagonist in the first cartoon that synchronized sound with animation “Steamboat Willie”, which premiered in November 1928.

Apart from impressive its animation movie, the character Mickey Mouse was made known to the public and in many countries around the world by publishing regular appearances (magazine) comic which had worn the name.

No doubt this is one of the cutest and strangest combinations I’ve seen until now, but the thing I’m curious about is what kind of character it will be when it emerges from its neutral state, and which part of the force is stronger in him.
