1/6 Hot Toys Solo - RANGE TROOPER

[Tee-Kay]

Still want that Mimban Storm Trooper variant

Mind blowing they have yet to put this up for PO. Such an easy repaint.

I do love me some caped Stormtroopers that aren't Phasma

According to BigBreda's current live video, last week Hot Toys apparently sent photos of three figures to the distributors in China and asked them what their estimated pre-order numbers would be for them.

The figures were:

Range Trooper
Purge Trooper (with beehive helmet)
Purple Spider-Man

Well, following last week Purge Trooper PO, it looks like we could also expect a PO for the Range Trooper in the near future. A Hasbro Black Series version of this trooper has just been revealed and is labelled as "Andor Range Trooper".

Pretty much confirms Howard will have another chance at offering this prototype for PO.

Rocket launcher!!

Also, looks like no mag boots. If HT do it under Andor lucense hopefully they include the Solo mag boots as an extra.

It'll be typical of HT to put that up from Andor and not make Cassian himself. Just like troops from Jedi Survivor.

As excited as I am on the possibility of this trooper being release, the same thought about not getting Andor himself jumped to mind.

As much as i'd hate to end up without a Cassian from Hot Toys when Andor season 2 is done, i'd at least be happy to add this long awaited trooper to the collection.

Did not notice magnetic boots were not featured with this Andor version. Let's hope Hot Toys are generous and and those to the figure. They gotta be aware that could only help sales.

 

[Deinonychus]

Like the range trooper design, but where did it appear in Andor? Swear I didn’t see one.

It takes an exceptional soldier to become a range trooper. These proud troops are assigned to Imperial frontier worlds, where they rely on their training, toughness, and specialized equipment to expand Imperial rule.

Just waiting for something I want to be announced come onnnnn Raiders Indy 2.0

 

[Futurion]

Fckin hell, this?! Where is Death Star Trooper?!

 

[Johnny Utah]

I heard these troops will be in Andor season 2 as well.

 

[ronnieb555]

This is one of my favourite new trooper designs so will definitely try to pick this up, if this wasn't a limited release I would go for 2-3 of these but might not get the chance being limited.

 

[Bunk1036]

These limited releases are really killing me. I've been waiting for this to be announced, beyond excited to see it, then significantly annoyed that I won't be able to get it without paying the mark up. I wish they would stop doing this...

I hate these limited releases or at least how sideshow does it. It’s ruining the hobby for me.
Luckily I haven’t wanted many of the limited ones and I don’t want this.
If they pull this limited garbage with the snow trooper commander, we riot.
I’ll definitely angrily type on my phone about that.

Their "exclusives" is just materialized fear of shelf warmers.
