My review of this review:

Nice kitchen. But the framing distance makes it hard to see the figure.

The "host" is fast with opening it and getting it together. But again, hard to see, even with the inserts later.

Music is too loud OR voice is to soft.

Again, editing is a wonderful tool -- try it.

4/10

What's your review of the host though? He can be seen very clearly throughout. Good articulation from the look of it. Seems light on accessories though. T-shirt, pants, probably some shoes.

He's likeable enough. I like his insecurity in that he keeps looking over at the screen to see if he's in frame. Again, 4/10

I preferred your reviews of the reviewers when you were fully under the influence of the dark side.

I just watched 5 seconds of the video...

There's far too much positivity around here nowadays.

Is that really his designation?

Have to admit, with the flurry of amazing pieces coming out now and in the near future, it really had me questioning whether I needed two of these. Sure once they're in-hand I will be happy with them, though.

Wow...that was horrible.

It's the name of the gun based on battlefront.

Hello all. First time poster.
When I was pulling the spacetrooper out of the box I found a tiny piece of square plastic on my bedspread. I didn't know what part it came off of.
I noticed a panel missing on the back of the Thruster Backpack on the right top silver tube, just below where the small clear cartridge goes into.
Couldn't figure out why this was a glued on panel and tried to glue it back on with model glue. Didn't hold and fell off but then I noticed that the inside piece actually came out.
Both of those square panels flip upward to expose tiny thrusters. Check it out...

While trying to fix it that thruster would slip back inside the tube, like deep inside. I had to use needle nose tweezers to get it out 3x. Used tiny drop of gorilla glue and it's right as rain..

I never noticed that before, even though it appeared in two of the promo photos:

I flipped mine open now just for the hell of it!

BEST first post ever!!!

I had no idea there were thrusters. Thank you. Another tiny BONUS detail! I love it.

BEAT !?! Ha !
Didn't noticed it in the promo pic either.
Wish the oxygen tube had a flex wire in it.
Overall i'm pretty happy with it. Now bring on the Sandtrooper !

Corrected -- what the heck is beat? Stupid dyslexia. 'Best' for you, sir!

You addled-brained whippersnapper beatniks should stop puffing your funny cigarettes.

Very cool to see another neat feature on this already great figure. Thanks UU!

My figure is processing so it should ship next week. Not sure why this delay with SSC since I ordered it in the first day it was available. Anyway cannot wait to get it.

 

[generalgrevious]

yeah this is a great figure it will go nicely with the other stormtroopers I have. I need to find bodies for my marmits so they can all display nicely together

 

[Khev]

Awesome little bonus with those hidden mini thrusters.
