Just to update you on my situation with the defective chest plate. The eBay seller was kind enough to to get a replacement chest plate from Hot Toys and sent it to me. He looks good as new. I'm so happy this was resolved with out any eBay disputes. Kudos to the seller for doing the right thing.

Quick question, I had nothing better to do and took apart my Stormtrooper . Now I can't remember how the armor goes back on. Is there a tutorial anywhere? Do the shoulder bells elastic go in from of chest? Do the torso elastics go over the shoulder bells elastic or vice versa? I should have really paid attention.
These figures are so posable. No TFA trooper comes close.
It's actually not that important, just changes how the armour sits, slightly.
From what I recall, on the stock assembly it goes like this:
Shoulder bell elastic in back. The torso will already be attached via the crotch strap beneath the abdominal/back armour and codpiece, but be pushed to the side and down until you have the shoulder bells in place, than it goes over top, with the "suspender"-style straps crossing over each other to opposite shoulders.
With HT rereleasing a few of their SW figures, should I hold off on getting this trooper hoping they will reissue it, or is evil-bay my best bet?
They may not rerelease this exact set but you can bet they'll release more OT Stormtroopers. If nothing else Stormtrooper Han will probably double as the tall Stormtrooper from this set, as Stormtrooper Luke could also be the short one.
Was able to get the exclusive set last week thanks to a member here. I'm now the proud owner of a gun rack.
They will wait for rogue one and do some more troopers from thatWith HT rereleasing a few of their SW figures, should I hold off on getting this trooper hoping they will reissue it, or is evil-bay my best bet?
Just got the MMS. Love it.
