In the game they don't have a backpack and they use the T-21 not the DLT-19.

Also they are getting a lot of use out of that sandtrooper base.

It's styled after the shock troopers you fight in the single player missions.

Edit: whoops, too slow
 
Pretty sure HT is testing the waters to see if they can make Stormtroopers as colorful and plentiful as clonetroopers.

It's not just their fault. It is Disney's and LFL's too because they (allowed to be) made games with fugly rainbow colored stormtroopers

I would love this, as it would mean I saved loads of money. Unless they did ANH storm troopers in Marvel comic adaptation deco with blue shading and red lenses. I'd buy those.
 
Sorry to kind of hijack the post. Does anyone think a medicom 1/6 storm trooper would look ok next to the hot toys stormie? I want to set up the usual display of Vader with troopers behind him and the hot toys stormtroopers are too much on ebay.

I've owned SSC, Medicom and Hot Toys. In my opinion, no chance. The paint finish is good but the proportional differences will be glaring.
 
Definitely avoid them for a group display. The medicom stormtrooper will look like a thirteen year old. The Sideshow troopers are the best bet to flank Vader and can be had for under $150 these days.

I've been looking on eBay and haven't seen many for under $200.
maybe I'll convert some clones.

where are you looking? In Australia three went within the last month for $170-180AUD, ie $120-130USD + shipping.

I figured it'd be the same in the States.
 
The Medicom Stormies are ok on their own. The helmet is still better than SSC, so is the cod piece. But being too small they won't look good unless displayed among other Medis. The HT is the best, but if budget is limited look for a Marmit or a SSC

Yeah...actually I've seen some great deals on Marmits lately. They need some work, but even so, I'd say they're the best alternative to HT.
 
I agree that the marmit are the best alternative though many of them have yellowed somewhat. Another alternative is the Force Toys Stormtrooper. which is a bootleg of the Sideshow trooper.

Peroxide bath in sunlight fixes yellowing, but again, it's a little work.
 
Need some advice here. For Hot Toys MMS 267, the single pack stormtrooper is the taller one or the shorter one (as I understand from the twin pack that one trooper is taller than the other one)

The single is the tall version.
 
Yesterday, I found a Stormtrooper on eBay for $277 shipped. It sounded too good to be true, but I went ahead and bought it anyway because eBay has a money-back guarantee. Does you guys think this is a scam? Or is this price still common for the Stormtrooper?
