Boba Fett wasn’t a slaver. The ship is actually called “Slave One,” because Jango Fett was actually a slave himself before becoming a powerful Bounty Hunter. Whether one agrees with the name or not is a fair subject to discuss, but I just wanted to clarify that Boba Fett himself wasn’t a slaver.

The reason Boba Fett's starship is called "Slave-1" is because his father Jango owned it before him. Jango named the ship that because he himself was a slave at some point. When he saw the starship locked up in a prison, he felt a kinship with it and took it for himself. He then named the ship "Slave-1" as a reference to the history of both him and the ship.

Either way, them censoring the ship’s name just doesn’t make any sense. It’s not like the ship itself was a slave. Star Wars already has slavery in its story and uses the word “slave” quite a bit.

With all the lego videos as of late, hopefully you can do a cross over with a lego youtuber with the same kind of "phantom lore" you had with Nostalgia Critic, or something to do that "I'm a phantom, I can be anywhere and poses people" gag again, that was great.

The funny thing about dino attack is that the website for international audiences was unchanged. It was weird for us kids back then seeing the original version online while the sets looked different. Also its insane how the osprey even got made. Not only was it controversial for its relation to war, it was poorly designed. The planes mechanics could break its own gears.

Boba fett's starship was already called "sl*ve-1" when it was jango fett's so if anyone was dealing in that sort of thing it was him

Hey Phantom, one thing with the Boba Fett Slave 1 ship, this isn't just lego, is disney being actually afraid of the word "slave", as other less known names of ships like the mandalorian's is still called "The Razor Crest" or the rebels one are called "The Ghost" or "The Phantom", if you look at any other toys of the ship or even the Boba Fett show, they refused to call the ship by its proper name.

One of the DLCs for Lego DC Batman 3 Beyond Gotham was based on Suicide Squad, but simply called The Squad in all game related material

In my personal opinion on Boba’s ship name, it’s trying to cover a massive scar tissue on someone’s body with bandages. No matter how hard you try it will always be there. So long as you don’t fall back on the past, it’s fine to keep things as is so long as no one attempts reignite the past.

I don't think the audience that doesn't follow the toys or outside materials outside of the Movies and Live Action TV series knows Boba Fett's Starship as Slave I. I think The Clone Wars series did have used the Slave I name. (Also I think the Robot Chicken Star Wars did made a joke about Lando did say to Boba Fett about the starship is beautiful, but no the name.) Also, I did see the Bad Batch's Havoc Marauder Lego Set were called The Bad Batch Attack Shuttle and as well as the Fang Fighter Lego Set were called Mandalorian Starfighter. It's not really a censorship per say. It might be easier for some new Lego Collectors to know who owns the Starship than calling it which one.
