I rather Hot Toys release a Sandtrooper instead of this... but I would prefer a totally different character actually. HT has been using the same mould for Shadow trooper, stormtrooper, and now this....

I'm not familiar with Celebration Exclusives, does this mean it won't be available to order through the normal websites/online stores?

 

[Smudger9]

Damn. Saw my tapatalk warning and for a second I thought it was ANH Luke. No interest in this having already passed on the shadow trooper.
At least this pretty much answers the question on whether we'll get sandtroopers.
Stormtroopers....... HT's new Iron Man!!!

It says on Hot Toys' Facebook:

Could have just added those small attachments to the regular Stormtroopers but Hot Toys will be Hot Toys as usual.

 

[LoveMinusZero]

Ah, I missed that, thanks.

 

[Kuzeh]

Well damn!! This looks cool!!

Sideshow has done a thousand Clone reissues already, I really can't begrudge Hot Toys for doing the handful of variations that the Stormtrooper mold will give them.

 

[Asta]

"Hey, look, it's us!"

 

[Cixx]

Love the gun.

 

[Johnny Utah]

All I'm taking from this is they're confirmed to be at Celebration.

 

[K1NG J0RDAN]

Looks cool, but... Why? We don't need Spacetroopers. We need Sandtroopers, Farmboy Luke, Princess Leia, Bespin Han, Lando, Boba Fett, Jabba the Hut, Han in Carbonite, and so many others.

 

[Puay]

I want this!

Hate this exclusive business... now I have no idea if I could simply purchase this from my local distributor...

Should be able. Will just cost $100 more than a regular trooper thanks to the "con exclusive" sticker.

Stormtroopers....... HT's new Iron Man!!!

Praise the lord!

 

[BoosterGold06]

Cool, but don't need.

Did they really spell 'celebration' wrong on their own promotional photos?

 

[Asta]

A couple of updated pictures, also with corrected spelling:

 

[TK0083]

Well, since I'm a sucker for Stormtroopers and will be attending this show...... I will get one or two or a few......






Really wasn't planning on buying anything there anyway.

 

[anwe]

I think the last one pretty much captures my feelings right now.
