1/6 Sideshow Star Wars Scout Trooper 1/6th Scale Figure

[TonTon]

Check out your local hobby shop. My "Paint Buster" was from Hobby Link Japan. But Japan now prohibits shipping flammable materials, so its its no longer available online.

Cool I'll check out my shop. Definitely preventing me from fully enjoying the figure (most of the other issues I was prepared for). :

How are people removing the chest armor?

Curious about this too.

Congrats Jordan!

Thanks buddy!

True. But I'm more after what's seen on screen.

Then leave that rifle behind

After getting my 2 trooper. I realized, the color of the fabric on the torso part is just right in person.
But the weathering for the boots are just too much for me. So I take out my "Paint Buster" (from Japan) and the result are this...

Yeah, that's looking more like what it should have been - that looks like they did onscreen as opposed to swamp patrol.

Then leave that rifle behind

Yep did that.





Behind the emperor.
I still have space for Sideshow's AT-AT driver and TIE Fighter pilot.

That bike is indeed too small j/k

BTW you might want to change the Marmit AT-AT Driver hoses with Hasbro ones, not perfect, but much better:

What cabinets are those and what are their dimensions? Thanks. Looks awesome.

Yeah, they're better but they aren't long enough.

They look like detolf from Ikea. Go to Ikea.com and look up detolf. They list dimensions, colors etc.

Just opened the Scout. Are the 2nd pair of boots the same or am I missing something?

Bent for crouch or riding bike.

The one with all the figures is not a Detolf - similar concept, but different cabinet. The one to its right looks like it might be a Detolf - look at the difference in width, plus the much thicker vertical bars on the cabinet on the left.

A shame, I was hoping it was a detolf since the Taun Taun fit. However, I see your point about it being wider.

They can be found for cheap. A good guy on RS sent them to me for free. Together with the Hasbro chestbox, but decided to keep the Marmit one

Yeah, they're better but they aren't long enough.

Didn't say they are perfect, but they are an improvement over the weirdly shaped Marmit rubber hoses nevertheless.

Thanks. I see the bend now... Didn't at first.

You have the picture of the parts you dremeled? Care to share please.?

I do not, sorry. I would have to undress the figure.

I basically just sanded down the sides of the torso below the armpits, working my way down the sides of the torso along the ribline. I also sanded down the biceps. Now the arms do not hit the torso, hanging more naturally. Easy mod, took five minutes.
