American company Disney continues to fight for a bright future in which the younger generation will not suffer from insults and inappropriate terms. However, for the sake of this Mickey Mouse House tries to get rid of the baggage of “old problems”.
At the end of July, it became known that the Disney management forced the company Lego rename bounty hunter spaceship Fett beans “Slave I“(Slave I) from “Star wars“(Star Wars). The new set was simply called “Boba Fett’s spaceship“(Boba Fett’s Starship).
Some readers suggested that no one renamed anything (although LEGO representatives confirmed the fact of Disney’s demand), and this was done ostensibly for the convenience of parents. The truth is that a few days ago the company … renamed Boba Fett’s ship again.
As part of the promotion of the comic “Bounty hunter war“(The war of the bounty hunters) publishing house Marvel comics published several alternative covers of the edition, made in the style of drawings of spaceships. On one of the options you can see Boba Fett and “Slave I”, but in the press release the drawing is called Boba Fett and the Firebringer (Boba fett and firespray).
Spaceships of other mercenaries have not been renamed. Trandoshan Bossk still owns the ship “Hound tooth“(The Hound’s Tooth), droid IG-88 plows the vastness of space on IG-2000 etc.
Where did the name option come from “Firebringer“(Firespray)? According to the established canon, “Slave I” is a modified prototype of the “Firebringer 31“designed by the company Kuat Systems Engineering for the needs of the correctional system Of the old republic…
This is far from the first time that Disney has tried to fight slavery. In 2015, it became known that the company was trying to quietly remove from sale all things related to the slave costume, which the princess Leia Organa (Carrie Fisher) wore in the film “Return of the Jedi“(Return of the jedi).
