I read that as $600 cause you can't have just one Stormtrooper. Congrats Brian, the build itself was an epic story probably worthy of GL making a movie of it I'm sure!

This piece is so sick. I have been nagging my distro guy about this for so long. Any info if the distro stores are gonna have a chance to order?

my girlfriend has said she won't give me crap for buying a $300 toy after seeing the pictures. I would have bought it anyway...

If she did say something you could just blast her with a flying Trooper fist and she'd get why it rules so much.

The distro store I buy from told me he should get opp to order the Trooper. Can anyone confirm this cause I can't miss it.

Why not pre-order when it goes up from S7 if you're that worried on missing it?

Give us a little time to give you all the details about when and where to buy it. Don't stress we will make sure you have plenty of notice.

Exactly. You'll need 2 to go with a Vader Super Shogun. Hint, hint, wish, wish.

This is so awesome. Can't wait to pre-order.

Just curious, will this thing yellow like the old Kenner stormtroopers?

I like to support my local store whenever I can.

Huh..

Glenn, that's the first time I've really ever heard a report of yellowing polyethylene (doesn't mean it's never happened--I just have never come across it in all my years...).

Well, I'ma see Tom Franck this weekend, so I'll grill him about that.

Re: Stormtrooper Jumbo news thread.

I have nothing to offer except that photo. Maybe it was smoke that caused it to yellow. I will defer to the vintage guys on this one, I am just a newb.

Re: Stormtrooper Jumbo news thread.

Thu Feb 18, 2010 10:29 pm

Can't wait to pick up one of these troopers!

Re: Stormtrooper Jumbo news thread.

Fri Feb 19, 2010 2:03 am

Really nice. An awesome piece of toy and I would never tell people that it's sculpture... it rules all on its' own! Congrats to Brian and S7 for a real mind-blower!
