I?d totally buy one. More imperials the better. Same goes for other Trooper versions. Release them all!

I am down for 3 of the Death Star trooper. It is currently the most needed imperial. He is in 4 movies including rogue one. I would buy any ot imperials and rogue one figures. I am sure the next preorder will be some marvel release or another Harley Quinn. SMH

Long live the Death Star trooper.

I don?t know what the weird symbol thing is in my last post lol
Ugh - thought this might have been news. Some of these threads become like festering wounds when they pop up again.
I've dived into making a second custom DST because I just feel it's now been too long for this fig to get the "omg - they finally put it up for PO!" treatment. I still think they made this proto with Solo in mind but bailed out when the scene involving the DSTs prominently was cut, and Solo then bombed.

I'll be back to complain more once I get my loose helmet with the Leia/Wicket set
Yeah, that DST helmet that comes with the Leia/Wicket looks a little wonky shape-wise. You'd assume they'd use the helmet they had on the DST prototype figure (though even that one, while overall looking good, doesn't seem to taper out wide enough.)

At this point I would buy one even if the helmet remained off. I would buy 3 if they got it right or at least pretty close.

But do they ? Sometimes I equate all the comments here on this thread to like yelling "I want xxx" in the forrest where no one can hear you.
FB seems to be the only effective place to communicate with them. Suggestions to SS probably go nowhere. It's very frustrating.
It really needs a coordinated effort. But many are not willing to get off their ass and show support on Facebook.
I'd be up for starting an offensive and post a link here whenever an opportunity on FB comes to "communicate" our wants to HT.
Who would be interested in that ?

I was just going to suggest something similar.
I've saved the pic from the previous page.
Next time HT post anything on their FB page,I will post the pic and ask them to release the DST.
I will use Instagram as well.
"This is the way".

Sounds good. "This is the (only) way" I think.
Main thing is to get the most likes and comments. This gets their attention.

I did this a few times already posting these images on their FB page
And I posted their Snow Commander too from time to time

Yep, while it's good to do it from time to time, perhaps a concentrated effort with a lot of people supporting it would show it's worth Hot Toys while.
In the end, they only do the main popular characters because the volume & therefore money made is largest. So need to show them that.

How can you tell when Hot Toys hasn't had a Friday SW release? When the Death Star Trooper goes to the top of the board.

Haha, yes. Maybe that's their ploy with their Friday release, to distract us from the DST
Well this week they failed ! fantasticfrog

All instant buys. That is basically ot grails.
Now that all I collect is SW figs from Hot Toys, this one is at the top of the wish list (as far as proto figs go).
I also really want the tank commander from Rogue One.

I also encourage everyone to blow their pages up with the remaining Rogue One troopers and 2 from Solo.
