1/6 Sideshow Snowtrooper 2012

[ZE_501]

One thing I learned in this couple of years of SW 1/6 collecting is: people love troopers. Stormtrooper, Sandtrooper, Snowtrooper...no matter which one, buy them fast before it's too late.

I was late getting into 1/6. Finding my troops has been brutal; for both economic and aesthetic reasons I focused solely on OT stormtroopers; it stings a little to pass on things like Marmit Sandtroopers when they pop up or even these SSC Snowtroopers, but at the end of the day I think focus pays off for me. But that Probe Droid was another story.

Wow waitlist for the Snowtrooper and E-Web? Damn now I really wish I didn't wait to get another and the Canon. I'm just glad I got one in my collection he really does rock.

Yeah same. Unfortunately I have him crawling on the ground being kicked to death by 3 other clones.

There is one E-Web cannon left at BBTS if anyone is interested.

Just got my two Snowtroopers, today. Definitely should not have left it so long, but really happy with them (two is perfect -- hopefully we get a Commander later on). Always thought the eyes looked a bit small in photos, but in-person, I think they look great.

*sighs* Yep, had noticed that but finally broke down and ordered (just never seem to see these in for sale threads). Crappiest part is just a few days ago, I finally got $50.00 worth of gift cards, went to order the E-Web at Sideshow and sure enough it's sold out. Ah well, glad to have one secured, now.

FYI: Poster at Rebelscum has a Snowtrooper Exclusive up for $150.00. Great price and would've gone for it, myself, if I didn't already have the order in for two.

Gone. Dammit.

thanks for the tip

FYI - gohastings still has the Snowtrooper instock. Outside of that, it seems the only place available is ebay.

Well my 2nd Snowtrooper and E-Web arrived today. While the E-Web has a really nice presence, it does seem rather bare for the cost. The Snowtrooper remains one of Sideshow's best efforts in the line, IMO.

You can get the Snowtrooper off Amazon.
The prices are sort of high though.

 

[Alastair]

The snowtrooper is still available here in Australia at popcultcha.com AU$179.99

I got mine from Popcultcha, very good place to shop.

Pop had a recent 20% off all Star Wars figures!! That would've been a great time to buy!! Will have to wait until next year though - I definitely will be!!

Just got mine from BBTS today. Definitely rueing that I didn't order a week earlier from SSC while I could've used a $50.00 discount, but even so, I feel it's worth the cost. Great design and it looks fantastic once it's set-up.

It's shelf presence is a bit overwhelming once you have it set up. It takes up more space then you'd think once you have it set up with a trooper behind it.

True, pictures are terrible at conveying how big something is once in-hand -- especially factoring in the Snowtrooper. It does require a lot of space, but really I'm most relieved that it came in pristine shape (quite a few seemed to have received a broken tri-pod, kinked hose or bent cannon). Unfortunately, I've got a while before I need to worry about display space, since until I get a room set-up with proper shelving, all my stuff is staying boxed.

Just finished my custom Snowie.

Mostly Hasbro on a SS clone body.

Couldn't quite get the colour of the boots right though.

Still looks great J....like the snow pick....hate to be on the business end of that thing.
