 Re: S7 Jumbo Stormtrooper (Machinder Style)  Hanks SDCC pic Just found this link with some more info - http://www.theforce.net/celebration/story/CJ_Stormtrooper_Machinder_116283.aspInteresting use of the word 'characters' in this quote from Brian last year - “By making deluxe versions of classic Star Wars characters, we can introduce figures like the Stormtrooper to a new generation of enthusiast and provide seasoned collectors with new types of toys that deliver an unprecedented scale and complexity.” - Brian Flynn, Founder of Super7. Jumbo Vader to follow?!  Going to need a bigger house! (sorry if this is old news and been mentioned before)

Re: S7 Jumbo Stormtrooper (Machinder Style) It has been, but no biggie! Reiterating info doesn't hurt...especially for those not keeping up or otherwise too lazy to read previous posts. Anyway, here's another pic that shows the detail of the blaster a bit better due to the lighting: http://www.collectiondx.com/news_item/0 ... se_sdcc_09

Re: S7 Jumbo Stormtrooper (Machinder Style) I wonder if the Sucklord has a casting setup big enough to bootleg this. It'll look pretty in pink.

Re: S7 Jumbo Stormtrooper (Machinder Style) Same bust, actually, you can pop the dome on or display it separate. I really want one, but I just can't throw down that money. Plus, I guess it'd creep me out a bit to have Sir Sebastian Shaw staring at me while I walk around the house.
