Hot Toys Sandtrooper and Dewback 1/6

[agonistes86]

Lookit these pristine lighted detolfs with one figure per shelf. Admittedly I only own two detolfs so far, but mine are like the subway at rush hour. And not yet lit. In fact look at this whole room, uncluttered with hobby stuff! Agonistes here is livin' the dream.

p.s. those Chrysler gargoyle stands are pretty cool, I love those.

Thanks! But as much as I would like to say that I always keep the room like this (since it's also my home office), let me give you a more honest impression of what it unfortunately looks like more often than I'd like.

Below is what it looks like right now: containers full of childhood toys I want to sell, new figure boxes I haven't made space for, the workbench cluttered with the "hobby stuff"... But I do make sure the shelves are nice and uncluttered.

And to keep it on topic, that trooper on the desk is my marmit sandtrooper on a new body, who will hopefully join this new white pauldron sandie in the near future and my orange pauldron one in a Mos Eisley diorama I have yet to build.

So far it seems I'm the only one who's up for POing this Dewback if it pops up? I just think it'll look pretty cool with Mando riding it alongside my custom ANH version. The Mando Dewback design I don't mind and it looks more realistic than the standard SE-style Dewback that seems to be the primary driver for collectible designs.

It does seem pretty strange that the Dewback look seems to drift in so many directions. I guess LFL hasn't loved any of the redesigns so has allowed a constant design evolution to take place over the past 25 years since the SE reboot.

I can't really think of another SW design that has had so many pretty major changes. When you compare the 1997 POTF2 version to the 2010 Legacy version to the Black Series 6" version, they are so different.

Then I guess that makes two of us , would rather get this than Anakin, and will probably only be around $150 to $175 more.

I like that simple pose for your 1/6th Vader. Do you have a better photo?

Nor if sure if you're joking since I can barely make him out in my shot, but yes I do.

My ROTJ Vader custom.

 

[Wor-Gar]

No, seriously, I just loved the silhouette -- I can see he had a great stance even from afar.

Really nice custom there.

I’m up for one for sure. Regretted not getting one from sideshow back in the day.
space is tight but I will find a way

Yep same for me. I'm In for sure, and will find the space.

I've found Speeders and a Bluurg really mix up the collection, rather than a heap of humanoid shapes standing in a line.

Every visitor goes straight to the vehicles and beasts, so definitely for me.

Always enjoy seeing stuff that doesn't go up for PO. Like Indiana Jones. Great show.

I hope this gets a PO soon, but it also wouldn’t surprise me to see it at comic con again next year without a PO still.

Dewback, the new Death Star Trooper.

Dewback, the new Death Star Trooper.

You take that back and say sorry.

I'll be ordering. Passed on a couple larger items hoping for something OT and here it is. Hopefully TaunTaun and Hoth figures next.

That would be a totally logical step imo, but this is Hot Toys......

Fingers crossed !

I'd love a HT Tauntaun. I had one Star Wars toy when I was a kid and the Tauntaun was it. You had to put the rider on it by pushing his legs through a trapdoor in the back of the Tauntaun. At one point I lost the saddlepiece. That totally sucked.

 

[mah45]

I still have the vintage taun taun like you described. I also have the one where the luke figure could be put into the soft belly version to relive the scene after the wampa escape. Still surprised at how well the saddles stand up to today plastic standards

Hey Howzer! I dare you to release Bespin Han as an artisan only edition...50 pieces worldwide.

I'd like to see them develop a Wampa! I think it could turn out fantastic! I saw a custom run thread that used a coomodel 1/4 body with a thick suit, I think HT could do a similar tactic and tweak one of their 1/4 bodies they utilize for their 1/4 figures.
