Melvin Fett

Melvin Fett was a humanoid male bounty hunter who operated during the time of the Galactic Empire. He was the cousin of the renowned hunter Boba Fett, making his repeated failures at apprehending bounties even more comical to his peers. At some point before 6 BBY, Fett accepted a bounty for the Gungan Senator Jar Jar Binks of the planet Naboo in the hopes of redeeming himself in the eyes of his colleagues. Tracking Binks to the desert world Tatooine, Fett was caught unprepared by the planet's harsh climate, which put him at a tactical disadvantage. Such was his confusion that he mistook a Senator Jar Jar Binks commemorative drinking cup for the Senator himself. Although he apprehended the cup, Fett failed yet again to retrieve his bounty.
