Hot Toys Star Wars Stormtrooper

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

I live in New Zealand. All products being brought into New Zealand which could potentially contain unwanted pests or organisms are subject to the biosecurity fee. This is on On top of customs fees and GST

I got slammed for the two battle droid sets but my Tauntaun escaped notice. I can't figure it out

I don't envy you overseas guys, government run amok.

That is strange...I'm no zoologist but I think pests and organisms are more likely to be found on furry snowland beasts rather than skinny metal droids.

Mostly an issue with packaging, especially in containers and on palettes. Stuff I import is always certified to not contain any wood as part of its packing for the very real concern of introducing foreign pest species.

They are. Honestly I look at the HT troopers everyday and think they are the best Star Wars collectible I've seen. You will love them in hand.

Does anyone know if the Hot Toys stormtrooper 2 pack started shipping yet? I'd like to pick them up come the beginning of May, and I was just wondering if they had already started shipping or if anyone knew when they are supposed to start shipping since SS still has them listed as pre-orders. (Hopefully a May the 4th discount will show up and I can pick them up for a bit cheaper.)

Well, my waitlist for the exclusive 2-pack converted and I got a shipping notification on Monday. I'll probably be getting them tomorrow.

Wait, does that mean that they have more of the exclusive 2 pack with the blaster rack? If they do I'll join the waitlist right now lol. Then again, maybe it'd just be best to go for the regular 2 pack. Then I don't have to wait to find out if I'll be getting them or not and I'll know exactly when I'm parting ways with my money. I want that blaster rack, but maybe I'll be able to find it on ebay in the coming months.

Quick question. I'm having trouble with the stand. The bottom It doesn't want to clip onto the base. Is that the way they are, or should I contact Sideshow for a replacement?

Following the directions, I think they have to go in at an angle first then pushed back upright

I get that. But is as if the clip doesn't reach down far enough to grab the base.

I have the exact same problem. The stand will not clip into the back grill at all only into the middle grill. I'm afraid to force it incase I break something with my ham fisted ways....

Some pics of my just received Stormtrooper.
A must have for Star Wars fans. Love the detail, love the design. A through and through delight to have and display. Wow.

Looks like an all-white band. Snowtrooper on air-guitar.

Pretty sure that's the background I made (here), which you can download from my backgrounds thread or Flickr. TwelveInchFigures sells prints of this background and you can contact him here on the board or at his site: 12inchFigures
