If I were still collecting SW this would be an instant PO for me. I have always loved the look of this character.

Where there many Stormtroopers with Stunt helmets actually ? Anyone know where in the films ?

I just prefer the shape and design.

For me, as a kid watching ROTJ, these were some of the most mysterious characters in the film. They just stood out like a sore thumb amongst all the Imps and looked so imposing. They are a definite buy.

I feel 100% the same way. I remember getting the Kenner one as a kid and thinking what an amazing figure it was with its cloth cloak.

Almost all were Stunt Stormtroopers.

Well that maybe explains why I wasn't originally sold on the HT Stormtroopers.

But they grow on you and aRe still better than RO troopers.

Re: Hot Toys: Royal Guard

Back on topic, this will be the money shot. Guard next to emperor, Vader on the other side.

Re: Hot Toys: Royal Guard

I'm going for one Guard on either side, Vader with Tarkin.

Re: Hot Toys: Royal Guard

I'm going with 2 behind Vader.

Re: Hot Toys: Royal Guard

I love the look of the royal guards. Even as a kid, I also thought the figure having a cloth cloak was awesome. But one thing that always confused me is why does the emperor need guards. He's very powerful and can handle his own.

He can handle his own but why should he? I doubt he would want no guards when he's sat in his throne doing emperor things. He's doesn't want any old rebel walking in behind him.

Strange they put the shortest guy dead center instead of in the back. I mean, in 1977, they were supposed to be all clones.

You look like a man with power over others. Like Colonel Gaddafi got the point, he had female guards, now that gets your head turning

Really happy HT made this, I have been wanting that Attakus Guard for a long time, but been waiting for something with fabric.
