Hot Toys Snowtrooper

[karamazov80]

I'm debating getting this, possibly the two-pack from SSC with my May coupon code. Love ESB, these guys look bad-ass, and they are distinctive enough that I could justify it--I don't think I'll ever buy a Sandtrooper because they're just slightly modified Stormtroopers.

But these guys only appear briefly in the film, and don't do too much when they are there. If I knew for a fact that HT was going all in with Hoth Luke and Han, I would probably buy without hesitating. But they'll seem a bit out of place on the display otherwise.

I'm sure there will be plenty once it starts shipping from Sideshow as always, but I preordered anyway. Safety first.

But look at Yoda... I saw one go for $199.99 free ship, no tax yesterday on ebay. Prices were hovering at $240 for the longest time, now dropping. Probably for the next two months at least.

I just got Yoda's head and hands from Toy Anxiety for $55 shipped. Cheapest I could find to upgrade my Sideshow Yoda!

What hands did you buy? The HT ones? I too bought a HT Yoda head for my SS, the closed eyes sculpt from TA for $30. On the TA thread I asked someone who did the same about the hands, he said the HT hands won't work with the SS. He said the HT head is the same darker green as the SS Jedi Master in which those hands will work with the SS Jedi Mentor as it's the same body. I bought the 4 different SS Jedi Master hands they had available on TA for $.25 ea. So I spent $31 + S&H.

many of us are balls deep in collecting, the casuals that dont know any better are the target in those auctions no?

And buyers may be located where Sideshow cant ship to... Its like theres other places in the world that arent America...

Sweet. Hopefully PC isn't far off getting their too then. This guy is paid in full.

These Snowies do pose up really well. The only thing personally I will do is to remove the Fat suit from the legs so that the material doesn't sit as tight.

Nice pictures Adam! I like how you have Battlefront in the background.

Are those two piece boots like the Sideshow figure? Hard to tell from the pics.

I pulled the trigger a min ago on the 2 pack

My order says - order in production

What does that mean?

From the video review, they look to be 2 part plastic with an ankle joint.

I haven't a clue. I ordered my 2-pack last week..need to check and see if mine says the same. Boy oh boy would it be nice if these things ship sooner than expected.

Great pics. I get mine next week I hope.

Looking forward to him. Should be a great addition to the "Evil" side of my collection.

My only niggle is that a ordinary crotch stand should have been included with this 'deluxe' version...other than that it's fantastic!View attachment 346448View attachment 346449View attachment 346450View attachment 346451View attachment 346447

Looks good. Opinions if given the option of Yoda or Snowtrooper which would you go with? With very few inhand images/reviews I lean towards Snowtrooper. I am a fan of dirty, scuffed unclean look in my 1/6 display. It brings out the realism.
