Spacetrooper will probably end up being rarer in the long run.

 

[Wor-Gar]

How can you have da space movie without da spacetroopa?

GET THE SPACETROOPA!

Don't the hatches come in the tray? Not understanding why you all are glue ion them in. Little help.

 

[clutch]

Hatches do not come in tray.

Because they fall off pretty easily.... We're talking about the little doors on the gray part of the pack right under where the small rectangular boxes slot in.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Yes. But I had a hell of a time opening mine. They were in there tight on mine.

The one's in the tray are the larger pieces in the second picture below that are in the middle of the round gray cylinders and can be pushed in and out. What people are talking about are the hatches below them (also in the second picture) that can be pulled up and seem to be hinged.

Someone said a few pages back that this can be modified to look like a regular storm trooper but You would have to take off the backpack and pipe which are attached with strong glue. Does anyone think this would be risky? I would like this but I'd want the option of displaying it like a stormtrooper when the mood takes me.

 

[amos brearly]

I bought this because i wanted another stormtrooper. if posed right you can barely tell he is different to the stormtrooper release. Not sure i would risk altering mine permanently.

 

[canadaclone]

Love this trooper...little swapping going on and....

 

[Dr. Nash]

Ha! Cool, thanks for the info - just got mine out again to "play" and sure enough, tiny thrusters!!!

Thanks! Totally forgot about those. Mine didn't fall out, but I'd like to see if they open. Many thanks to you and Flosi.

 

[koon]

How does it go again?

I'm displaying mine with the small thrusts opened:

If you go back a ways, Ahab detailed how he modified his so the pack and hose could be removable. He did an amazing job, but it's not what I would call easy.

Thanks, I'll look for that.

 

[inked]

Got mine today, really nice addition to the troops

 

[Shanester]

Got my Spacetrooper Friday. Everything works great. One of the bottom thruster looking things fell off in the box. Easy fix. My desk lamp caught the green lenses just right and its awesome to see.

 

[Darth_IMPoor]

Hmmm. Getting mine today. Gotta decide if I keep him as a Spacetrooper or convert to a regular Stormie and unload the backpack armor piece and gun to offset a bit of the cost. Space is getting tight.

 

[K1NG J0RDAN]

Ordered him last night. Can't wait.
