Sideshow 12" Stormtrooper PICTURE THREAD

[minivader]

I have both jango and boba from medicom, whilst jango poses and looks good boba poses like crap, so im swapping out their bodies.

can you tell me what body you are thinking to use for boba? I tried to use SS's S2 body but the wider shoulder and hip make it a very tight fit on the medi boba's body suit.

 

[Crimsonbob]

Wow they both look great height and size wise their spot on. But considering the price difference theres no contest SS wins hands down, and SS ones do look a bit better tbh.

I must now resist the temptation to get some SS clones

Cryoguns used a Soldier Story body. Check out this page.

Im gonna try and use some BBI G3.5 Bodies, cos the neck posts are quite similar to what he used. If i have to carve the body up a bit i will, cos my boba's head post is useless, and his leg is broke lol.

I appreciate the feedback and pics guys. Thank you!!

The stormtrooper doesn't fit with my collection, perhaps I'll start with Utapau clone. He'll fit with the Medi (clean) Clone trooper, 501st an Shock trooper. I'll pre-order SS Shock trooper. They will round out my collection nicely.

I'll try to resist storm trooper, sand trooper and Vader

Next "Dead" figure anyone?

HAHAHA!!! AMAZING!!!

I have a similar question. I apologize in advance, I am sure this has been covered but I rarely visit these forums. I didn't find my question in search.

I stopped collecting SS Star Wars because a perceived lack of quality. However, I am considering a return to SS armored line but I wonder if it is worth the investment.

I have the Medi clones and I am not impressed with their lack of articulation & cost. I am intrigued with SS released Stormtrooper & Utapau clone and the upcoming Vader, Sandtrooper & Shocktrooper. Are the figures good in terms of quality, representation? Can they be displayed nicely alongside Medicom's clones without a huge height / bulk difference?

Thanks

I was just wondering how long it would take before someone posted a pic like that. Bravo.

I posted a few a couple of pages back, here's a couple more:

Given that they have an Elvis Trooper, this isn't much of a stretch, and a far cooler one to boot!

@ Zombie Trooper!

Can someone point me in the right direction for a tutorial or pics of how to form fit the chest/back plates with velcro? Thinking of doing this mod to my two Stormies.

Hi!

I did a bit of a fix up back on page 222 of this thread.

 

[Karaduin]

Hi Darthgothikus, checked it out, nice photo guide! Did you stick one piece to the body suit and then another onto the armour on both the chest and back plate? How much did you use?

 

[Darthgothikus]

I stuck one type of Velcro to the armour (front and back) then cut a strip to link the two together. Here are a couple of pics to illustrate...

Hope that helps, makes the figure look a lot better. Still think I prefer my medi's though...

Cheers mate! Gonna give it a try.

I cannot wait to get my Stormtrooper. My only dilemma is I ordered 1, I may have to order more
