    Agreed. Indian food is amazing! I’d imagine the jawas were scavaging and cut open a sarlac to see if they can get droid parts because they heard of the sail barge and other ships being destroyed around there. As a result, they maybe found Boba. Im not sure but thats what I speculate.

    ok this is very far-fetched but what if someone came along after and somehow killed it, and scavenged through it and found boba in a coma? they could have taken his armor and dumped him somewhere.

    Definitely possible. I actually, to be honest, find that to be a good speculation. It is definitely possible that some scavenger, a person like Rey, came along, killed the Sarlac with weapons and took what was inside. They could have found Boba fett in a coma and took the armor for some more cash. Yeah, good thinking. I like your speculation.

    Yeah, in the run up to the first series being show, I more than once refereed to the show as "Boba Fett in everything but name."

    (and featuring IG 88 in everything but name and a manner of other characters from the OT in everything but name).

    Agreed. Both boba and mando act similarly and, in a way, ambiguously if you will.

    Is Sarlac Pitt related to Brad, by chance?
    :D

    In all seriousness, here is my thought on the matter: If the armor kept him alive and was (presumably) the main reason for him escaping, how did he end up being separated from the armor?

    To me that's more intriguing than how he escaped, but the answers to both are most likely linked in some way. Like many others said, most likely he was just found by someone else. He wasn't important but the armor was. Pretty sure that Fett even mentioned as much in the episode of Mando when Fennec returns...

    "She was left for dead on the sands of Tatooine. As was I. But fate sometimes steps in to rescue the wretched..."

    So, maybe the question of him being separated from his armor is as simple as that. How many people think we are getting a flashback to the escape from the sarlacc in the upcoming Book of Boba Fett?

    But seriously I think the Sarlacc got eaten by a Krayt and Boba Either cut his way out or used explosives just like Din did in "The Marshal", he has enough tools and weapons at his disposal.

    I do.


    I'm also hoping that if we get them (flashbacks) in Book of Boba, we get to see Obi Wan vs Jango from young Boba's point of view.

    In a plot twist, it will be revealed that Boba Fett has a brother...








    ... and I'll leave you to ponder that for a moment.
