Hot Toys - MMS - Episode VII - Snowtrooper & Officer

Just received my Snowtrooper from the 15% off + dbl rewards points deal. So glad to get this one. It's my favorite TFA trooper design.

Dang, I missed that deal. Might have picked these up then.

Still cheaper on ebay.

Agreed! Just scored the two pack for 270.84 shipped. No way I could have done that well going through Sideshow. Btw, figures are stunning! Just a shame the troopers didn't' see more screen time.

 

[darkeyes]

Just picked up a 2-pk for $270 as well on da 'Bay. I was staying away from TFA figures, but I just could not pass up that price for $135 a figure.

 

[Spallesc]

That's great!!! Glad someone else scored this set for that price! I haven't been terribly successful w/ keeping clear of TFA figures. I have a weakness for armoured figures and really like the First Order designs. Head sculpts can be hit or miss on actual likeness, but helmeted heads rarely let me down..LOL! So what do you think of the snowies? They arrive yet?

 

[darkeyes]

My set came today and I was very impressed. They not only look great but pose well, hands swap easily, just an overall quality set. Hope they release a special edition of TFA with the additional deleted Snowtrooper scenes.

 

[Spallesc]

Agreed! It would be nice but I think we will have to settle for the deleted scenes for now. I just hope they recycle the design in a future film. It would be a shame not to see them in action.



Quick iPad pic. Sorry for poor quality.

Would have been great if Starkiller base was mainly patrolled by snow troopers.

 

[Spallesc]

I know right! Honestly they had more than enough stormtroopers roaming the hallways! Maybe they were just inside on break warming up w/ a mug of hot blue milk. Han and the guys didn't appear to have that much trouble getting into that technological terror.

I love the design of these guys and their reference back to McQuarrie's snow trooper. I wonder what the Star Wars universe will look like once they run out of his designs to mine?

 

[Newbieguy]

Arms on mine are about the same, and found that the extra Kylo Ren neck peg I have worked very well to lower the neck

There is an extra neck peg with Kylo? How many? Can you use it on the flametrooper as well? His head sits up a little high. I am debating whether or not to pick up the Officer with the current $25 off coupon and free shipping, but don't like the long neck.

I looked in Kylo box. Don't see any extra neck pegs.

 

[Tee-Kay]

He didn't say there was one in the box (Owning Kylo i do confirm there's none). He said he had an extra one. I would assume Matt bought that neck peg as a spare part or even used one from another figure from his collection.

I'm late to the party, and have had this for a while, but I took a few pics today, so I thought I'd share.

I'll be on the hunt for the officer now. Awesome figure. It's too bad the didn't get more screen time.

Sweet pics (and stand), guys! Definitely too bad they didn't get more Starkiller scenes.

 

[Cocoboloboy]

This looks stellar on display. The only reason I got it was that I used an EBay discount and it was cheap. Definitely worth it. Beautiful design.

Love the snow effect on the stand!! Did you do that yourself or purchase it?

Thanks! I make them. It's a removeable plate that you set on the stand.

Cool. Did you make that out of plaster of Paris ?
