Edit: WAVE VIII LESS THAN A WEEK AWAY GET HYPE

Anyone else excited to knock out an Outsider's HLC or Punishing One simultaneously with a weapons failure crit, just for the hilarity?

No. Boba Fett is triggered by dealing a face-up, which means the card is public information.
How does that stack with major and minor explosion?

Boba is one-use, so it doesn't.
