I’ve been saying since I saw Star Wars: The Last Jedi that Captain Phasma is the new Boba Fett, and this video proves it. I mean that in the sense that her stories outside of the films are far more entertaining, and much like Fett, she died in a way that really undermines just how much of a bad ass she was. Take her armor for example, which I just now learned is blaster resistant and was once the property of Emperor Palpatine. It’s a damn shame we didn’t see that armor get put to better use, but I’m sure the expanded universe stories about her will make mention of it quite often. Learn the history of Phasma’s armor below, and let us know if you think she was a wasted character.
