1/6 Luke Skywalker and Han Solo in Stormtrooper Disguise Set SDCC Exclusive

[Darthrazz]

What would be the best bodies to put these heads on if you wanted to bash a farmboy and a smuggler?

I have Han on an older Narrow shoulder TrueType and Luke on a new True Type slim. These are bad pictures, but you get the idea.

Re: Sideshow Han Solo and Luke Stormtrooper set 2009

Stormie Luke was probably Sideshow's best Luke sculpt, until they unveiled the Hoth version. I'll be using the Hoth one to replace Bespin Luke's head, and hoping for a X-wing Luke to replace Tatooine and Yavin Luke's heads.

I used a repainted Stormie Luke head for my X-Wing Pilot custom. I plan on using the Hoth version for my Snowspeeder Pilot.

Sorry no pics (maybe tonight when I get home) but basically you just need a stripe of thick cardboard (like normal shipping brownboxes) and a piece of black duct tape. Drill a hole through the taped cardboard and insert the neck balljoint (the elastic properties of duct tape will keep it tight), then fold the cardboard inside the helmet.
Anyway I remember seeing something similar using bottle caps here on the boards.

cool show me some pics when you get home

Nice use of heads!

Ok, crappy phone pics with flash. Stormie Han on the left, regular Stormie on the right.

Here's the mod...plain cardboard with black duct tape.

Small Studios repainted both my heads years ago; trust me when I say they look killer. I'd post a pic, but no camera as of now. Cell phone is crap

You won't regret it, I sold mine off a few years ago, and really regretted doing so. It took me long time to find another at a decent price, $340. But , it was money well spent. Never getting rid of this set now!

For me, you gotta go with a body with a neck because of the low neck lines.

I would think one of the HT narrow shoulder bodies with the neck would be ideal, but they're hard to come by not to mention expensive.

You can go the cheap route and get a TTL.

Some people don't like them but I've used them a bunch and never had any serious complaints.

Something like this may work for Luke. I heard they're shorter than other bodies.

I can't speak for it though as I've never owned one.

I used a repainted Stormie Luke head for my X-Wing Pilot custom. I plan on using the Hoth version for my Snowspeeder Pilot.

That looks great. Who did the repaint?

Thank you Razz and Fiend.

I need some advice. The back of my stormtrooper helmet is some paint scuffs. What sort of paint should I used to repaint it?

 

[lerath666]

I'd go with some shade of white.

teasing aside, if it were me, i'd probobly use citadel paints

Any advice as to how to go about doing it? I'm not familiar with Citadel paint. Is it available in the UK? Do I need to remove the old paint, prime to the area or just spray over the blemish?

 

[lerath666]

Citadel paint needs to be thinned. it's MADE in the UK ( it's the games workshop brand) i'd wait and/or ask in the custos section as well, though.

Some light use of a magic eraser works too. And I do mean light use.
