Hot Toys Snowtrooper

[user 19388]

I think the boots just need a serious repaint, they certainly seem like a afterthought and almost resemble SS snowie boots. I'm curious to how much HT contributed to the development of all of SS figures in the past? I recall on the boxes of my sandies having ht in the credits. Anyways, maybe mine will ship soon to good ole AZ...

The bodies of Sideshow's Clone/Stormtroopers, Darth Vader, and Hobbits were designed and produced by Hot Toys for Sideshow, the rest of those figures were designed by SSC.
Not sure who helped design and produce the SSC Yoda body though, it could be HT, SSC, or Bigshot Toyworks who now help Sideshow design their Darth Malgus, Female, Superhero and Starcraft bodies as well as some of their PF figures. The same company also designs some of the 3A & Threezero figures.

Thanks for the pics can't wait to get them in!

More than a man looks at a woman's face....

These pics are great, I can't wait to open this guy up. HT hit this one out of the park for sure.

Do you have ANH Sandtrooper? Which one stands out more

 

[Wor-Gar]

I do have the Sandtrooper, and a reg Stormtrooper and Spacetrooper.

The Sandtrooper has the advantage of that eye-catching orange pauldron. However, as a figure, the Sandtrooper tends to blend in with other regular Stormtroopers... while the hooded Snowtrooper jumps out because he's so distinctive. No OT trooper quite like him.

Do you at least have Han Solo, or a Luke to back you up in confronting him? He may back down at the sight of you guys.

For real though nice pictures and pose! This one is a stand-out figure for sure.

They were scheduled to arrive Tuesday, but I changed the day to Thursday to be sure I was in.

But they've come in early and are already sitting at the local depot. If I'd left them alone they'd have been delivered Monday.

 

[Creighton]

Got my shipping notice for the single.

@Aliaz, is that a customized double detolf? Love the openness.

Tremendous! Absolutely love it. Custom base, top, and back glass panel is what I'm gathering?

Only custom base and top, back glass is still from the detolf in 3 pieces.

Are the glass panels just sitting next to each other or are they attached by any mean? If not, there could be an issue with dust invading your display pretty fast.
