When that idea was abandoned, however, filmmakers repurposed the striking gear for a new bounty hunter. On June 28, 1978, Star Wars sound designer Ben Burtt and The Empire Strikes Back assistant film editor Duwayne Dunham debuted the costume with a test video (also available below), detailing its weaponry and functionality; the colors would later be developed to what has become Fett's definitive look, but it all began with this early version.
