1/6 Desert Sands Sandtrooper

[BlitzOUT]

Bloody fantastic in hand pics. However I think they could have made the weathering look more realistic. It's not dirty enough

great pics tk.......

now what did you do with the other armor?.........strip it & start from scratch?

Got mine today! I'm glad to see the body isn't nearly as floppy as the previous sand and stormtroopers' were. The ankle joints were kind of loose, but nothing like the previous ones. The paint apps on this new figure are very neat too, much more realistic than the earlier ones'. The straps on the backpack are still very flimsy, but at least there are magnets to hold it in place this time around - which worked very well on Cody and Rex, too!
I'm very happy with this figure!

I repainted my Sandtroopers awhile back, and now that I see how good this new one looks I'm thinking about getting it.

Like the repaints Lopie they fit well with each other.

I've got mine sitting on his dewback, but something about it just didn't seem right. On further inspection, he has two left feet. Literally. Anybody else have this problem?

Has this happened before?

Yes, its not the first time I've heard of this. Just call SS and they will fix it.

Great paint job Lopie. I'm thinking about weathering the backpack. Is that drybrush with acrylic paint?
