There is a heavy Pro-Fett bias among the new Force Awakens advertisements. Fett is the only character outside of Darth Vader and Luke who is available in all toy size classes. Fett's vehicle and Fett based roleplay accessories were made in greater quantities than any of the other action figures or weapons. As you enter the store you walk under the arches and Fett alone is the only character featured on both advertisement pillars. That sort of symbolism makes him look like he alone supports the franchise upon his shoulders.

And yes before you post that Fett gif of him smashing into the side of the ship and falling it should be known that he's back in Episode 7, it's not spoiler because he's literally everywhere. The bio on the action figure package even said he shot his way out of the sarlacc's guts and his path of destruction in his escape was so great that he made a crater that bears his namesake in tatooine.

Boba Fett died but he had not fulfilled his destiny of selling more toys so a Disney Man gave him life again.

While shooting his way out of the guts of the Sarlac sounds all cool and poo poo all I can think of Fett basically being this for the rest of Ep6: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBJ3rkNq2ok

Boba Fett is basically the action equivalent of jar jar binks comic relief, except nerds fell for it. Just some lame rear end Cool-by-committee dork in armor to sell toys.
