Hot Toys 1/6 Death Trooper (Black Chrome) Exclusive

[dukefett]

Really?

That's just how it looked to me, the Clonetrooper looked awesome, this not so much IMO.

edit. I think also because of how there's a lot more going on with the Death Trooper armor than the clone as far as angles, it affects how it looks. Not nearly as smooth.

I was able to get a code to snag this one. I think it looks sharp, but will definitely present some problems with handling for display. Time to break out the white gloves!

After a code if anybody has one they don't want, thanks.

I might be able to get you one. I'll PM you if I'm able. I ended up grabbing this Death Trooper. I just love how it looks for some reason. I was totally not going to buy either of them,but the more I looked the more I wanted it. I don't get why the Clone Trooper was so much more though.

Ditto that

I have 4 Sideshow Exclusive codes and three Hasbro Black Series Jon Favreau codes up for grabs for anyone who cares. Send me a PM if interested (and which you're interested in). Edit: All codes given away!

I had a real fun time in costume there on Sunday:

Loved to see the little kids reactions to you. Very generous of you to take photos with so many people.

I loved seeing the kids reactions so much that I ended up staying out there almost an hour and a half longer than I had originally planned I think in total I was out there taking pictures for close to 3 hours. Despite what you might expect at a star wars convention, Vaders are relatively rare because of the cost and discomfort of the costume, so it was just about a constant stream of picture requests.

A company that makes it hard to buy products

Probaly gonna pull some BS where you only have a limited window to order each day or something, artificial scarcity.

 

[DCFett]

Wonder if that means they might not honor the open orders?

They made it available to order during a stream earlier.

I'm tempted by this one. Never liked any non-canon versions but this one has caught my interest. I think it would look amazing displayed with at least one of the regular versions. Perhaps as the leader of the group. Hmmm....
