Hmmm, I was gonna get the Sandtrooper and probably the Snowtroopers from ESB later down the road, I'm not sure if I should pick this guy up. He appears for like a second in the film and hasn't had any discounts except free shipping, wondering if I should wait longer? Or pass on it completely?

You can use the code NEW120816 on him for $30 off.
 
I was taking some pics of my ProbeDroid and thought I'd throw up some of this guy while I was at it. Sorry for the crap phone pics.

That Trooper always looks great, and the rifle is even better in person. Always love seeing any weapon variations.
 
Though the Spacetrooper rifle is not screen accurate to any rifle, it looks pretty cool. It is the only exception i made with a rifle that didn't appear on screen.

Yeah? What about all those Hasbro inspired guns on the exclusives? You never got one? The Scout trooper rifle, the Snowtrooper rifle, the TIE pistol, etc...

Thats actually a shame for people who don't enjoy those. The original toys mean as much to me as the movies ever did. Spent way too much time as a kid outside playing with figures til dark. Then going inside to play some more.
 
Still thinking about getting this guy to go into my OT collection...with free shipping and $61 in rewards, it's calling to me.
 
Question...has anyone's troopers gone yellow over time or do they keep their white appearance over the years? I purchased a Sandtrooper because of the weathering but was concerned the gleaming-white troopers would yellow. BTW, I'm a non-smoker and my collection is temperature controlled.
 
Is the Spacetrooper worth getting for 15% off (~$33) or better to save and get the Jedha troopers from Rogue One?
 
I love this guy. I can't believe he's still around considering he was a special limited release. I think the only reason he didn't sell out was HT mistake in making the backpack non removable. But still, he's way too cool to still be available over a year later...crazy!! A true OT figure, even if barely seen on screen, considering the only other 2 ANH options are the regular Stormtrooper and Sandtrooper. Instant classic for me. Unlike the 50 different TFA First Order variations, which seem to be sticking around till EpVIII hits 2 years later.. Not even heavy discounts can get rid of them,
