I have a DT specialist deluxe and a regular DT (for the short blaster) on their way from popcultcha, bought in anticipation of a Krennic. I figured I buy now, because if a Krennic is ever announced, it'll be a madhouse finding the DT's.

Smart man. eBay prices will probably take a huge step up too.

I really think Rogue One will become a bit of a Star Wars classic. They just got that "Star Wars" feel right I thought. And that goes double if Solo is not that great.
 
Just came my death trooper and tie pilot.. man i hate that pistol holster of death trooper, such *** quality.

...cool troopers btw :)

its slightly shorter than the RO ST helmet when i measure but to eye both looks same size, much thinner tho. comes off as more form fitting to the soldiers head, where the ST helmet looks all roomy etc is not distractingly small IMO.

get one, so damn good. have had mine out for a few days now and its till as eye-catching as on day one, im smitten.

I didn't even notice the holster, woops. Nice pic of the two.

Does anyone have any photos of this guy standing with other stormtroopers or helmeted figures? I'm curious how small the DT helmet appears on the shelf.
This work?

Yes, nice, thank you.

Not horribly small there, good. I don't like pinhead helmets. Narrow is OK I guess. They didn't look particularly narrow in the movie.

I so desperately want one of these BUT... no Krennic. No Krennic spoils it every time I consider just getting one. It stopped me just this morning from pulling the trigger. Then I fear by the time Krennic does get made, HT will release a 4th Death Trooper and they might even fix the smallish helmet...

The second HT offers Baze or something else from RO, I will have hope and I will jump...
 
will be just as good flanking tarkin i think or the older ss thrawn perhaps as seen in rebels. impossible to be disappointed enjoying mine that much. is so good next to my ST has shifted my focus to just imperial related characters, gettin that r5 astromech to go next to them... plottin.

edit-
its only narrow when compare to the ST helmet i think other wise i def dont get that vibe at all.
 
The worst is next to the Sandtrooper helmet. I had this figure briefly (and had previously been concerned about the helmet size) but in hand it wasn’t an issue. I did avoid displaying it directly next to the Sandtrooper or ANH Stormtrooper however. At the time I was going all in with Rogue One figures so had him with Chirrut or the Shoretrooper and he looked fine. Would look good next to K-2 or Jyn, but would look best next to Krennic. :lecture
 
I believe DT's head kinda small.. standing next to the SS Tie pilot, tie head is much bigger than DT's
 
i think its very much by design no? the pilots head in that tie helmet is def not that big. the HT helmet on DT is same as it was seen in movie where actors wore the outfit. is just a tighter sleeker fit to the helmets the DT wear when compared to the standard stormtroopers and tie pilots.

or is there spec the HT helmet is undersized compared to movie?

Good to know.
 
Overall very cool and eye-catching figure, look even better in hand... wish the head just a little bit much bigger then it would be just damn fine!, and I really have to do something about that pistol holster

either you get him now, or have to pay unplesant $$ when Krennic comes out. Even if no Krennic, he's still a great addition to collectors who love Rouge One :)

Here, does this help? :lol

I still think it's just a smidge too small even on the Stormtrooper.
Btw, the DT head didn't want to sit down on the R1 Stormie's neck and I didn't want to force it.
