It now seems we have the new official name of Boba Fett’s iconic ship Slave I. You all might remember a while back when we reported on the Slave I name being changed on the new The Mandalorian LEGO set. When that set was released Slave I was replaced by the name Boba Fett’s Starship. That change was enough to drive some fans to start a petition to try to keep the Slave I name. Well, it seems as if the petition has fallen on death ears because this week the new official name “Firespray” has been revealed thanks to the War of the Bounty Hunters crossover event from Marvel Comics.
