Hot Toys The Force Awakens Exclusive Stormtrooper Squad Leader.

[The-Dark-Knight]

While this looks like a really cool figure, without it having a realistic head sculpt or cloth costume, is it really that different to the large talking figures from Disney store?

 

[KerotanFrog]

Yup, same here. Hopefully Kylo and the others are shipping soon.

Oh God I hope not too soon. I'm not ready for that payment lol.

It doesn't look like a cheap kids toy?

That's typically the big reason why you buy Hot Toys figures.

To be fair, the Disney store stormtroopers are actually really well made and sculpted, much better than their Hasbro counterparts.

I'm still confused. You are seriously comparing the quality of one of those to a 12 inch hot toys?

Or is this some joke I don't get?

Mine is shipping out next week.
Are HT seriously shipping these out of HongKong to Australia nowadays?
Cause...Spacetrooper tomoz, Squad Leader next week, ST luke week after..

 

[Futurion]

I'm so envy. Well, i must wait a bit longer to get it here in EU. Looking forward to it. I just felt in love with this evolved design of stormtroopers.

Damnit. Shouldn't have flexed this one.

 

[DBoz]

Damnit. Shouldn't have flexed this one.

That's what I was thinking too. It's all good, though. I've got the 1/4 Fett coming soon to tide me over until my last flex on this one.

My first Hot Toys arrived! First Order Stormtrooper Squad Leader. Sweet Jesus, it's amazing. I think I'm hooked guys.

The first time is always special.

New review, does a good job of demonstrating the figure's limitations when it comes to articulation.

 

[wadeit0ut]

Looks perfect.

Nice review. Short and straight to the point.

 

[Futurion]

Looks to me that he is far more flexible than old stormtrooper. Old stormie is a cool figure, but honestly he is a pain to pose nicely.

 

[Glennfett]

Got charged today for the Squad Leader.
Australia represent!

 

[TonTon]

Nice short review until the end when he compares it to a fake SS stormtrooper?

 

[momaw]

Called Sideshow to try and bring my last flex forward but was told they only go a partial shipment so can't do it. Congrats to those getting them now.

 

[Glennfett]

Im hoping sanity prevails and they ship this guy with my ST Luke order, which gets charged tomorrow.
Saving on shipping would be nice.

I've tried that before and been told items with NRDs can't be combined if they're separate orders ... sorry.

Same here. It sucks when you live overseas, get stung with carrier processing fees each and every time when no less than 4 figures are charged and shipped within a couple weeks. Sideshow shipping department could imrove in flexibility for sure.
