Seems like I’m not the only one who had their holster come apart. I ended up just removing mine completely.
 
Made the attempt to re-glue mine but unless the actual belt comes off it doesn?t seem likely a simple re-glue would do it without glue getting on the belt itself. Just not enough material to work with so mine will remain without a holster unless TonTon comes up with a new version.

I really need one more DT. Want the regular non specialist. Mms398. C?mon HT release a new one for Mando!! They?ve been silent on new 1/6?s lately. Only a ton of cosbabies.
 
I know it's not the most original pose, but here's a few pics of mine out of the box.

And I don't know why, but I just love that little Stormtrooper doll it comes with. :D

Oh wow, you scored the deluxe too. I had that one briefly and regrettably ended up selling. Now just have the specialist, prefer the helmet on the deluxe cause it has the rangefinder. And yeah, the doll is a nice accessory.
 
Oh I guess so. I didn't pay much attention before so I'm not really familiar with all the different versions of this guy. In fact for a minute I thought I was missing a blaster, since the promo pics show him holding a silver-tipped one as well, but I guess that comes with the other version instead.
 
Yeah there were 3 versions I believe. One of the arguments potentially why HT won't revisit this figure, even for Mandalorian.

Although I guess they'll find a reason for us to want to get one of they do.

I don't think it's a guarantee that they release these again as some here would like to think. I wouldn't bet against it happening either. But they released 3 separate versions already and they did not quickly sell out. Also one has to wonder how much product HT will be pushing out over the next 18 months considering current events and their already long backlog of delays. 50-50 at best I would say.

Hard to say ... I see 16 pre-order listings for HT 1/6 at Sideshow right now. Somehow I thought there would be more, I guess I'm thinking of prototypes.

*EDIT: Ran the search again. 63 pre-orders. Guess there's some waitlisted figures to add to that, not sure how many.

I don't know the overall number but I was mostly referring to figures that are late. They have several figures that were due in Q3 that still aren't out. Some Q4 figures too.

Yeah, there are several delays -- figures I actually forgot were coming out. 63 (not including waitlisted) is a lot of pre-orders and a good percentage of those are late. I wonder if HT is capable of expanding ... and more importantly doing so without compromising on quality.
 
^ What they said. That's going to be an awesome display.

I'll have Krennic flanked by one Death Trooper, perhaps two if I'm able to acquire a Specialist. Luckily I have the entire gang in the Black Series line so that will have to do. :rotfl
 
I'm still thinking about getting this guy at some point, but I keep hearing about issues related to the leather breaking down on the pauldron. Is that true? Any other issues related to material breaking down on his bandolier or anywhere else?

I haven?t had any issues with my pauldrons. Bandoliers are pretty good since it?s sturdy material unlike the holster for the blaster. It?s the only thing I can speak ill about this figure. It?s very thin pleather.

It's not the pauldron, it's the holster for the sidearm pistol. I'm too afraid to touch or even look at mine.

Gotcha. Yeah I noted how cheap the sidearm holster is on my regular Death Trooper when I received it. I may not even display it with the pistol in there.

I had seen an eBay listing where the seller mention the pauldron breaking down (and had a pic) and then I recalled a Kijiji ad where the seller mentioned the pauldron so that had me thinking. Must've just been damage caused from use.
