Hot Toys Snowtrooper

Shoretroopers are for tropical environments. I saw the actual costumes at Celebration and i Wasn't impressed. My problem with shoretroopers is they don't look like Imperial troopers with the off-white yellow armour, brown fabric pants and shoes and various colours on their armor. Same goes for the Death troopers and Hovertank Pilots. Of the 3 the tank pilots look like they fit into that era the best but they can't replicate that late 70's/early 80's designs by McQuarrie, Andrew Ainsworth and Joe Johnston, etc.

At least they are better than the First Order designs.

I liked the concept, but for some reason that whole sequence never came across as clever or darkly funny as it should have been.

As long as they are able to touch the bottom, they're fine. Past that limit, imperial scuba troopers take over.

You, sir, win the internet!!

I agree except the last sentence. For me FO troopers are example of successful evolution of design. New, but still traditional looking. At least they wear white armor, right? Not like this milita with brown pants ... i wonder why brown pants ... hmm. We should ask Deadpool.
