A lot of the truly dedicated have built some detailed and faithful replicas. While researching the costume, I found many people out there that have built spectacular life sized models of Han Solo in Carbonite (HIC as the hobbyists say). That is when inspiration hit - to truly compliment a Boba Fett costume, I can be Han Solo in Carbonite. My son tried to console me by telling me to make a Han Solo costume and wear that. I know there are some good instructions out there on how to make your own Boba Fett costumer, but I still broke down and spent the $50. This year he turned nine and finally insisted on *gasp* a store bought Boba Fett costume. I have been continuing the tradition of making Halloween costumes with my own son since he was young. He fashioned the body out of chicken wire and tin foil, made the arms out of cardboard, and filled it with breath-taking (for 1978) electronic effects like blinking dome lights and an LCD screen that flashed “R2D2.” Sure, it wasn’t an exact replica of R2D2, but I won several Halloween costume contests that year and set the bar high for future costumes. I really put my dad’s awesome set of tools to the test in 1978 when I insisted on being R2D2 for Halloween. Not only has he always been good at electronics (he worked at Bell Labs), but he is also skilled at carpentry, mechanics, and metal work. We also see a carbonite-frozen Leia communicating directly with Luke (via Force-telepathy) in Star Wars #4, clearly showing that she's awake and conscious.As a kid who always loved Halloween, I was fortunate enough to grow up with a Maker father who humored my every creative thought.

This ties up nicely with the description of Han's time in carbonite in the Return of the Jedi Official Novelisation Star Wars: Scum and Villainy: Case Files on the Galaxy's Most Notorious Known trophies of this variety date back to the ancient Krath thatĬonquered the carbonite mines of the Empress Teta system, thousands of Known to use carbonite in this crude but effective way.

If none (currently) exist, legends explanation would suffice. Looking for in-universe, canonical explanations not armchair speculation and theories. Does someone frozen in Carbonite - who is then unfrozen - have any memory of their time frozen in Carbonite at all?.Does someone frozen in Carbonite fall into a deep sleep/hibernation immediately upon freezing?.But what does being placed in “suspended animation” actually mean for the subject themselves and their own experience? Yes, references are made to suspended animation and such. There are references to hibernation sickness and its side-effects - such as temporary blindness - when someone is unfrozen from Carbonite, but is there any insight as to what someone like Han Solo actually experienced in this process? Inspired by this other question about what Captain America experienced after being frozen for 67 years at the bottom of the ocean, is there any in-universe explanation for what Han Solo experienced while frozen in Carbonite for the in-universe time period between the events of The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Return of the Jedi (1983)?
