I don't think its known at this time, but the backpack is not listed as an item on the sales page, so don't bank on it.

Kind of what I was thinking. Thanks.

Man, the new Episode VII trailer has me all pumped up and excited now. I better stay away from Sideshow's site tonight, might end up making another purchase after pre-ordering the Spacetrooper this morning.

 

[URDNOTSullivan]

Pulled the trigger on this one last night. Very excited to finally be adding a storm trooper to my collection.

 

[tjdavis1138]

Ordered. I just started collecting and it's my first exclusive!

 

[Darth Mangler]

Congrats - not a bad way to start off your collection.

 

[MoMo]

So is this available at the show?

 

[Tee-Kay]

Not available at the show. Only available for PO on Sideshow's website. They do have a proto on display though.

Thank you. Gonna be a long wait though.

Ordered. Wanted to wait for a local offer but Shadowtrooper didn't make it locally or at insanely inflated price. Even with import and shipping fees, Sideshow direct remains my best option.

If EU price are in this range:
Hot Toys Exclusive Star Wars Episode IV A New Hope Spacetrooper 1/6th Collectible Figure 12 30cm
you are right.
Let's just hope $ exchange will never get worse.

Yep. Used to buy most of my stuff from them but switched to other web stores in the last couple years. At current €/$ rate, which I believe can only get better at that point, going with Sideshow for the Spacetrooper will cost me €260-€270. I just don't get how a local etailer can't come up with a competitive offer and end up being at least €50 more expensive

A nice thread about Spacetroopers on RPF: Spacetrooper Backpack- Found !! New pics added

 

[Puay]

Bought! Thank goodness my local distributor is carrying the this...

 

[jra81984]

Its weird, I thought this was an easy pass for me but I am oddly drawn to the obscure nature of the characters. I may keep my order.

Ugh...this exclusive is not available to my country. Who/what decides where these ex from HT is available to anyway.
