You paying full pop for those, or do you swing a volume discount??
 
The problem with the 2 pack is that half of the stormtroopers are short, when in the actual film I would guesstimate that only 1 out of 20 are noticeably shorter.
 
I had to go with one two pack to get the mouse droid. Grabbed a couple individuals, too, so it's a nice mix. I get why a lot of collectors prefer one height but a mixture doesn't bug me.

I don't want to brag, but I contact companies all the time. Sorry to make it seem like what you do in your spare time isn't cool.

Much of this is for my site, which is usually bothering companies about various cereal-related questions.

But one company I do bother a lot is Good Humor. And since the CM Punk thing, their boiler plate response has gone from "That you for your interest, we will pass along your comments" to "Thank you for your interest - due to a heavy response regarding this product, we are evaluating our product assortment..."

So, I never want to get my hopes up, but right now things are looking better than they did a year ago.

Oh, they must love you. :lol

Is this the new debate, whether or not there were short Stormies? Sigh. I guess it's better than, "Aren't they all clones?" :lol
 
For some reason it's easy to imagine Arnold Schwarzenegger delivering your response.

"Remembah when you said der was only one short Stormtroopah? Think again." BLAM

Man I never laugh at stuff posted here but that just cracked me up!

Yes, when I order by the dozens, I get discounts, I ended up getting 3 free clones in the summer when the deluxe Clones were released...

For having so many I think it would look better having a few shorties in the mix. Since they aren't clones.

They aren't Clones...but they are okay anyway...

I am not in the discussion about the height that has been going on...I KNOW they were different, I never noticed when I was a kid...but my OCD will not let me have a short Stormtrooper...I will however add a 2 pack if a HT 'New Hope' Luke is announced in the next few months, so I can get an extra HAN head and Luke head and have them as a pair...IF HT does not beat me to it making them an Exclusive next summer using the 2 pack STORMTROOPERS......
 
I can't see your photo...

Then look at the movie, the shot where Vader exits the hangar bay and the camera holds on the troopers. There's 13 of 'em, more than half are shorter than the others.

*to be read in Arnold's voice*
Do not cry into your pillow, Rudimus. You must be a man. You must put away childish things. Dey are not clones. Dey are men. Strong men. Be one too.

Lol I'll check it out. But I strongly suspect I'm a clone.
 
even Leia said he was short for a trooper.

That line is out of place, IMO. It's too familiar even though she's supposed to think it's just another trooper opening the door. Luke is at least as tall as many of the troopers. Go watch the movie.

Stormtroopers are not all the same height but rare is the SHORT one.

Guess you must have watched a different set of Star Wars movies.

Did you get your ruler out? Be careful not to scratch your TV screen with it.

Budget Stark already asked the guys at Secret Base about this and they said it won't be possible to switch out ST heads with human ones. So just wait on that exclusive, instead, CC!
