Best of all was Boba Fett's helmet. Such is the brilliance of Boba Fett's helmet design, The Mandalorian was able to star a fascinating central character without removing his helmet for an entire 7 episodes. Because Boba Fett is utilized so sparingly in the Star Wars movies, it's tempting to assume everything about him a mystery, but this isn't quite true.
The Empire Strikes Back certainly leaves more questions about Boba than it answers, but does provide information and backstory indirectly. A prime example comes during the bounty hunter's first appearance, receiving his instructions from Darth Vader along with the other mercenaries.
During the scene, Vader makes a point of telling Boba Fett " no disintegrations " and while no further details are provided as to whom has been disintegrated and what they might've done to deserve it, this reveals a lot about Boba Fett as a character - his ruthlessness, his reputation, his violence.
Star Wars may not have built-up Boba Fett at this stage, but the series had certainly established Darth Vader, and the idea that the Empire's Dark Lord would warn another character to tone down the bloodshed spoke volumes. And Vader was cool, therefore Boba Fett must be cool too. It would be far too big a stretch to claim Vader and Boba Fett were equals in The Empire Strikes Back - the bounty hunter bows to the Empire just like anyone else - but with the Sith lord so often working alone, it's interesting to see Boba at Vader's side during the scenes on Cloud City, almost fulfilling the role of a silent, deadly henchman for a brief time.
At this point in the Star Wars tale, Darth Vader wasn't exactly known for his respect in the workplace, so his willingness to stand alongside Boba Fett says much about the new character, without actually saying anything. Speaking of "cool" in the Star Wars universe, Han Solo is certainly a character who could give Boba Fett a run for his money, probably in less than 12 parsecs.
