Waiting for some pending points to become valid them i'm going to buy this. The more fan art I see around of Kylo the more he keeps growing on me.

Sorry to keep asking questions. What is the best storm troopers to get as I have heard these new ones have got a lot of hate on the helmets?

It should only matter what you think, not anyone else. Hate around these boards is like a whore with too much makeup...Common.

I like the new design, but if you only have to buy one, I'd go for the original trilogy version. They are classic, cool, and a masterpiece of the sci-fi cinema. But, I also like well composed collections, so the choice, in my opinion, should be influenced by the figures you think to buy and display with the stormtrooper you chose. For example, I'd not place Vader with a new Stormtrooper, and I would not place Maul or Kylo Ren with a classic Stormtrooper.

Original Storm troopers are just so iconic looking.
I guess growing up with them helps too.

It depends also on where you display your figures. I have room just for two detolf at the moment, and just one shelf for Star Wars figures, so I must think in terms of maximum three figures, that's why I'm now thinking about Maul, Vader, and Ren, instead of Vader, Stormtrooper and Boba Fett, because I want to represent the entire saga by using just three characters.
Of course, at the moment, we don't know how important Kylo Ren will be, but considering the trailer he should have an important role, and for sure he looks totally badass.

detolf ... and just one shelf for Star Wars figures

The discipline sends chills up my spine. I salute you. And that actually sounds like a perfect display for the 9-part saga -- the key villain from each of the first episodes of the three trilogies.

ZE would say that is balanced nicely.

PO'd ....

I think I am going to recreate this shot when my figures arrive. Kylo Ren looks so good here!

 

[Rambler]

Very bad ass. I really hope he is a good character. He would look awesome on display with my other SW villains.

Thats a $1000 dollar shot right there

 

[Kodiak3d]

Thats a $1000 dollar shot right there

Kylo Ren: $225
First Order Stormtrooper (x2): $410
First Order Stormtrooper Squad Leader: $220

Total: $850+shipping

No quite $1000, but close!

Guys do you have experience ordering through pop culture zone ? I want to pay with PayPal in full now for Kylo somewhere . Do they double box and send in the shippers, know of other good pay in full places?

 

[xipotec]

I am going to wait for Kylo, I justify this but using point to take off about 50 bucks after it releases. Especially since I am a sucker for exclusives, and this is not exclusive. I am really beginning to like the design. I think seeing the back of the helmet has really helped. The damage details and worn used looks is something that adds character. After we get a look at what is under the helmut we might like him even more! who says he will be a nice human face? He might be as scarred as Vader was.

As a side note , after reading the previous discussion;

Most of us love SW because we saw it with innocent eyes that were ready to be told a story about good and evil. Where the hero wins and alot of stuff blows up and there are cool robots and lazar swords.....

For those of us fortunate enough to be alive when this movie came out, it VERY important to remember NOTHING like this movie had been done on this scale or this well. OT was totally fresh and new to our young senses. Add a line of toys that came out with it, also something that had not been done on this scale before and you have a recipe for INTENSE bonding and childhood memories.

Our fandom is a reflection of our desire to hit those highs we got as a child again. Something that can never happen, no matter how many movies they make , or how many original cast members we get, or how many cool HT figures made. We can chase the feelings we had as children but we can never get them back. Perhaps a fleeting glimpse here and there , but they depend on that to keep us chasing and spending.

I personally see the second trilogy fans were mostly people who wanted "in" on the "thing" that is SW. But with those films the originality , toys and such had already been done over dozens of times. Add to that some really bad films and they just could not resonate with children they way OT did. It had already been done, nothing really new to see there, but for the sake of joining a group they hung on. I think there is definetely a human bonding element as most PT fans were introduced to SW by someone they were close too, and that instant respect for the films unfortunately clouded their sight.

Now here we are again, all abuzz with the new films hoping they will take us back to that feeling of wonder and excitement of being a kid. In that aspect the film can only hope to succeed for a short time if at all. Reality is far more powerful to an adult mind. No matter how good it is or how many cool toys are made, it can never give us years of unbridled excitement they way it did as a child.

So, lets just hope for some good entertainment and a few cool toys to burn the time away some more. But make no mistake , we will never be able to see any film the way we saw SW in our youth.

BTW the closest I have ever gotten to the "I am a kid again" feeling for any length of time was in my visits to Walt Disney World on a pre paid vacation. So , as a Disney fan , I am hoping for a touch of that magic.
