Sideshow Star Wars Biker Scout...and now Speeder Bike review too!

[Michael Crawford]

Let's finish up the all sixth scale week strong with a look at Sideshow's latest Star Wars release - the Scout Trooper! He's not going to knock your socks off, but he's a solid add. And yes, I'll be looking at the Speeder Bike first thing next week...you can find his review here:

That rifle thing is not an E-11 blaster. An E-11 blaster is what the Stormtroopers come with

Re: Sideshow Star Wars Biker Scout review

It is supposed to be an E-11s, I think:
E-11s sniper rifle - Wookieepedia, the Star Wars Wiki

As for the review, I agree on most points except the facts that if I hate the Pro body and that my Scout has no problem keeping the armor down on the shoulder. Have you tried tightening the canvas stripes on the side?

Well...Battlefront and Battlefront 2 were OUTSTANDING and addicting games. Glad they picked up something from there (and it's an EX accessory, so no damage).

I don't care where the rifle is from, it looks great.

Re: Sideshow Star Wars Biker Scout review

I'll be now waiting for an E-11 bazooka, E-11 cannon and E-11 Death Star...

The photo at the bottom of the page. Convinced me to prepare a shorter metal stand. That will lower the bike at the troopers crotch level.
That should be the height when the bike is at rest.

Sounds like a good plan. Lowering the bike makes it easier for me to make it fit in my display.

I love your reviews, love the Trooper, and from what I've seen (still waiting on my bike to arrive) I'll - mostly - love the bike. BUT, giving the sculpt 4/4 when those handlebars are as embarrassingly under-scaled as they are...?
