1/6 Hot Toys MMS291 Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope 1/6th scale Spacetrooper

[anwe]

Not doing the Sandtroopers with flat green lenses would be a crime.

Spacetrooper proto had the "hero" lense, I'm sure of that. At least the HT photos.

No mate the front tube and backpack isn't removable

What do you think it'd take to make them removable?

 

[james the cat]

Haven't got a clue
I wouldn't try

 

[Wor-Gar]

Clutch, go buy yourself a loose stormtrooper chest plate.

 

[clutch]

Excellent suggestion. I missed out on Stormtroopers so I'm looking at spacey as a dual-purpose figure. One more question, does the hose connect to the helmet or the chest?

 

[Wor-Gar]

I'm doing that same but eyeballing Luke Trooper as my 2nd Stormtrooper so I can have the grappling belt, binders and a short trooper.

Just a word of warning, changing out just the chest plate is a bit of a nuisance. The elastic goes down to the crotch, and I believe the bottom chest and shoulder pad elastics are all intertwined. In short you have to basically take off the armor for the entire figure to get the chest armor off safely and without worrying about ripping one of the elastics. If you're just doing it the one time it's probably not a big deal, but doubt anyone will be swapping out their armor on a week-to-week basis.

Hose connects to the chest. Helmet is normal.

Thanks. Just placed my order for one.

I think it's kind of a shame so many people are concerned about making this into another plain Stormtrooper. This guy is way too cool in his own right.

I agree. From across the room he'll look like a reg trooper... but then on closer inspection there's something special about him.

He gets a "Hey that's cool" moment.

I think the grappling line comes with the farmboy Luke and not the Stormtrooper Luke.

Exactly. This trooper is cool for what it is

Just gotta bump this insanity again, 'cause I can't stop looking at it.

Unless I'm totally mistaken both Stormtrooper Luke and Farmboy Luke (exclusive) comes with grappling hook.

Yep with you on that. I think its the big gun that will catch your attention from across the room and draw people in for closer inspection. A bit like me and women [emoji12] [emoji12]

 

[clutch]

So you are attracted to big guns?

Anyway, I'm going to have the option. Regular or Spacey. I like the spacetrooper. I just don't like the fact that 75% of it is made up. Including that gun?!@

 

[Hoody999]

No the women like my big gun [emoji12]

I'm sure he meant big 'uns.

Made up? Space troopers were on screen, albeit for just a few seconds.

I mean the details. That gun never existed and we can only guess at the backpack based on screen grabs and a couple of photos.
