It kind of reminds me of those pneumatic tube systems where Target-type employees put cash into a canister and away it shoots.
 
Think I‘ll hunt down a blaster for him to hold while standing. Not accurate to scene but I think he’d look good with one.

Yeah I'm planning to grab a blaster for him when I get him in. I am still not sure if I'm going to get the Squad Leader but he comes with two different blasters, so that'd be easy to share one with him.
 
Yeah I need to shuffle weapons around to free him one up. Also does anyone have anh troopers belt to sell?
 
Finally mine is in the uk after waiting since it “supposedly shipped on 17th Jan” from toys wonderland. I chose dhl 3-5 day delivery and it didn’t get picked up from the warehouse til 31st as I emailed a week later on for an update. It almost felt like it would have sat there forever until I mailed. I guess it’s random for delivery efficiency and we did have the Chinese New Year.
 
Honestly really like how this came out. I still think the best trooper designs since the Disney acquisition have been the Shore Troopers, but as far as a standard stormie variant goes, I like this. Hopefully y'all's distaste for it sends it to the 10% off and free shipping bin.

It's more likely to end up selling out before it goes on discount/free shipping. This probably had a smaller run than the other troopers that've come out recently.

Even if he hangs around for a while, they don't really make enough of these figures to end up in a discount bin nowadays. They know it'll sell out eventually, especially when it's related to The Mandalorian.
 
…and factor in that it is a relatively inexpensive figure to create (or re-create depending on how you judge it ) due to existing tooling and virtually no research and planning to invest in.
 
Finally arrived from Sideshow, hurrah.

...why did no one warn me his backpack was covered with attachment points for nonexistent accessories? It's maddening!

(Liking him, though.)

Probably because you’re one of the first people on this forum to get it in hand.

But now you’ve warned others. I’m not 100% sure what that warning means, but I’ve been warned.
 
The connectors in question -- one looks like something should slide in from above, and the other is almost a hook for the little metal ring on the mortar, but they don't quite work together.

I was also doing my head in when I got this guy over those parts on the backpack, assuming at least one must work with the mortar in some way, but alas no. 😆
 
About 4 months after initial release in HK, i was just invoiced by KGH for this Artillery trooper. Second invoice of the day after Ahsoka's from TBA this morning.
