Hot Toys - TMS032 - The Mandalorian - 1/6th scale Dark Trooper Collectible Figure

[ZE_501]

[...] So a real minefield IMO.

Probably why HT just ignores its customers.

The bullets below are head sculpts and HT is doing their best to avoid them. (1 human sculpt out of 19)

This is what Hot toys is doing when it comes to human headsculpts....

So far for head sculpts (for sixth scale) we are 1/14, that one being Gideon. Absolutely ridiculous.

Picked up 2 for $506 shipped at TW.

My 1st multiple Trooper purchase. Bet many others getting at least 2.

This looks sick, I have a while to make my decision though.

I reckon this guy could have metal inside the lower legs like K2SO. Just to lower the centre of gravity, and make him feel higher quality.

Love the gloss look as well.

Are they really going to re-release Mando with just a spear....I'm out for that one.

S2 Mando has different armor parts though. You can kind of see the different right thigh armor from the shots.

So I was looking at this poster and was thinking everyone is going crazy about the Mando Jedi Luke re-release. But there are some serious headsculpt obstacles here.

1). HT decide to do the headsculpt according to the CGI older Luke.
2). HT go with their own interpretation of older Luke
3). HT just use the previous Luke headsculpt.

In all cases they could get some serious backlash. 1). won't look like Luke. 2). doesn't look like Luke 3). Looks like young Luke = Lazy HT !!

So a real minefield IMO.

Fat Fett is a top contender for NEXT SW figure.

Up on Sideshow for $260. A little less than I expected. Still not sure I need one of these, think I will wait till closer to release.

Great price but Im in the same boat. I have way too many figures on preorder right now.

Was watching the stock drop at AE from 16 to 12 in a matter of minutes so I just ordered one. If its a trick, it worked.

Free Ship at AE also.

They look bit plastic and should be more metallic looking....black metal chrome look like that Batman armored variant from BvS

I could see this one being a good seller. I also feel like this wont be the last time we see Dark Troopers in the SW universe.

I'm actually surprised. But we'll see how quickly these disappear. Obviously today those who want it are buying. If it sells quick, retails will ask for another round. They've got over a year before delivery to sell more.

I thought the shoretroopers would sell quicker. A lot of people seemed to complain about the Dark troopers not feeling like genuine Star Wars.

To me, I feel like they are next level Super Battle Droids.

Well...people go crazy over the fact that there's philip screws being used in Rey's staff

 

[Wor-Gar]

In Star Wars land those screws are called.... Quadinaros screws.

2 left in stock with free ship at AE...


EDIT: make that 1 left...

A sell-out in its first day at AE is surprising. Guess they weren't too sure if this item would be popular and only got a short stack.

Just ordered one of the last two. Thanks. Really looking forward to posing one of these guys next to spear wielding Mando or holding little Grogu.

SOLD OUT at AE... thanks for playing.
