You have to get the "wonka-chaka" pair for the porn possibilities alone.
You know, I'm quite confident, that with as much hate as Hayden C. get as Anakin from the PT, if he pops up in a flashback or force-ghost, it'll get a pretty big cheer in theaters
Yeah, I'm definitely convinced the face shield somehow raises into the helmet to reveal a larger field of vision. It looks like some sort of blast shield that covers the face when needed.
I like your new avatar.

Hi Res pg 4 post #36
Standard Snowtrooper
I'm quoting every single pic because I really feel like they've nailed an original design that screams "Star Wars" without just picking up the trash from Ralph McQuarrie's floor and using it ala every design in Rebels.
I agree there. One thread for these guys should be fine. I'm really surprised that there are two Boba threads...that's really pointless!
I'm pretty much in the same boat. I like the design, and look, but I've already got the two pack of Stormtroopers on PO, and I don't think I want a dozen. I mean, it'll add up in the end. That said, they do look cool. I'd probably only go with the regular Snowtrooper though, if I do decide to bite. I'm not a huge fan of the giant orange pauldron.
I know it's to show rank, but in war I'm pretty sure soldiers don't even salute ranking officers on the field, because they'd be the first targeted if their rank was noticed by the enemy. The white pauldron on the Stormtrooper Leader looked nice enough, even though I passed, but this orange one really clashes with the style of these suits.
I really like the design of these guys... all except for that impractical eye slit. Why couldn't they have just made it resemble the modified eyes of a FO Stormtrooper like this..........
Red pauldrons are so useful for snow camouflage.
Given the way all the guns look in TFA, I wonder if Han's blaster's going to look like this...
It definitely looks like Hasbro should be given some design credit for the color scheme of the TFA stormie/snowie rifles...
White Stormtroopers and Scouts on Endor, orange pauldrons on Tatooine Sandtroopers. The Empire clearly didn't use camouflage colors for their ground troops. ESB Snowtroopers might have been white, just because all other troops were also white. These too.
I hope HT makes these guys soon but i fear that the OT is on the back burner now with TFA and then Rogue One next year.
