1/6 Hot Toys Exclusive - Star Wars - Shadow Trooper Collectible Figure

[Niltusk]

Got my conversion, thank you to everyone cancelling, I'd almost given up on this one.

 

[warlock664]

Cancelled. Just couldn't justify $220 for a figure of a character not in the original trilogy. Hope someone who wants it gets a conversion.

 

[NASEDO]

I wouldn't cancel this. I'd atleast flip it in a few months.

 

[Mike86]

Mine charges tomorrow so hopefully I'll have it at the end of the week. Pretty excited for it to arrive despite it not being a main character.

 

[Scareb]

So anyone's card been charged yet?

 

[FullMetalHippie]

I decided to keep my order after looking through the promo pics again. I'm not bothered by the lack of screen presence. I'm just a sucker for anything Star Wars and the next figure is months away from being in hand. Sandtroopers can't be too far behind, right? Hot Toys has all the parts they need now with the exception of the backpack and rifle.

He'll be here Wednesday so I'll post some pics for those interested.

I got charged this morning but I also went on live chat so I could upgrade my shipping. That probably moved things along a little quicker.

 

[Scareb]

Looks like mine has already shipped. It's really weird too because I got an automated phone call from FedEx telling me I had a package coming from sideshow and I owed them duty. The tracking number it gave me has the dimensions about right for the stormy. Really weird though, in the several years that I've bought stuff from SSC, I've never gotten a call from fed-ex before regarding the duty.

 

[SurlyJ]

Meant to cancel, forgot to. Will have it tomorrow.

 

[Ljaat]

Mine shipped, will have it Fri..

This will be my 4th shadow trooper (i wanted a squad of 4), ironically though, buying this one domestically from Sideshow ends up costing me the most by $50...

 

[dan350zr]

I get mine tomorrow also....

 

[Mike86]

I was going to cancel this but decided to keep it. Figured even though it wasn't actually in the films an extra Trooper to go with the others I'm eventually getting won't be bad to have. It'll make a good shelf filler either to face off with a hero or just to pose with other Troopers.

 

[SurlyJ]

Mine showed up today. Will see it when I get home from work.

[jedijim3002]

Looks awesome. Mine charged yesterday and will be here by Friday. Woo hoo!!!

 

[SurlyJ]

Tested out the poseability.






Why oh why must HT always put on the bogus crappy scuff marks...

 

[FullMetalHippie]

Nice shots Surly. Mine arrived today and I'll be opening him up shortly.

I think Hot Toys adds the scuffs/weathering to break things up a little bit and to make them not look as toy-ish. I personally like the scuffs and would add them myself if they weren't there. I'm probably going to weather my regular Stormies when they arrive next week. Should be a nice display with the white troopers flanking the shadow trooper. Until Vader arrives next fall, at least.

 

[Scareb]

Kind of annoyed. Got my shadowtrooper today and he's missing the tab next to the holster for the second ammo pouch. It looks like they put the glue down for it and then just forgot to attach it. I guess I'll be contacting Sideshow and hope I can get a new belt.

 

[Invictus Sol]

Still not a fan of the Shadow Trooper, but those are some nice pics, epitaph. Best this figure has looked, IMO.
