notice how the only fat guy on the screen is wearing a star trek outfit?
I smell a stereotype

I'd have thought Boba Fett would be the fat one since nobody healthy would spend $700 on several pieces of plastic to wear one day a year
For $700 it better be true space-proof bountyhunter armour.

That has to be a typo. I can't imagine that costume is at much higher quality than the other costumes.
That is Mav.ohhhh this is gold. Where's Mav to confirm/deny?

I'd expect that out of Juski. Not you Dave.....
Like if you had a boba fett costume you'd only wear it one day a year.
I'd wear that thing to church.

Oh noes, Dave made a joke at someone else's expense! Earth is doomed!
...or life goes on as normal.
Also: People analyze these kinds of ads too much. So there's only one fat guy, and he happens to be wearing the Star Trek stuff. I'm more offended at the fact that all I see are white guys, and no other race/sex (even though the majority of people who like this stuff are, in fact, white guys).

non-"supreme" $30 edition: printed on a plastic body suit, rather than having molded plastic and cloth.

They should have put the tubby guy in this costume too.
You know, for accuracy.

Do you see a Lando costume? Or a Mace costume? No? Then they are staying true to form.
Analyze? I just thought it was hilarious.

Nah, I got it. It was subtle, and took me many minutes of quiet contemplation, but I got it in the end. I just chose to talk about something else instead.

There's a Nero costume next to Fatty McFatasfuck. They're just saying Starfleet is full of "husky" individuals.

lolohhhh this is gold. Where's Mav to confirm/deny?
actually they are a bit incorrect, the stereotypical fat white male nerd is usually a fan of Star Wars too, yet all their SW costumes are skinny folk variety
*shrug* heh..

How can you be sure with the Fett costume, though?

For die-hard fans sure, but if we are talking overall fandom. I have met a lot more normal healthy people that like Star Wars compared to Star Trek. Honestly in person aside from 2-3 people the only Star Trek fans I know are ueber fucking nerds, where as everyone loves Star Wars*.
*Except for my Dad, he fucking hates Star Wars. Well he generally hates all like Sci-Fi and horror type things. I got my love of Sci-Fi and horror from my grandma on his side.
