 Re: Stormtrooper Jumbo news thread.
So, I can't swing this guy right now, but I've decided that I would be all over a Sandtrooper repaint with some stylized sandyness and weathering and a vinyl shoulder harness. Make that happen, please.

I will be surprised if these are sold out before the release date. Well.....I HOPE they don't sell out before the release otherwise I'm out of luck!

oooooooo, how 'bout 3P0???? The beautiful raised sculpting on the Stormtrooper's torso would lend itself nicely to threeps All excellent suggestions! Obviously Vader and Fett have been suggested and are obvious choices, but I never though of C3P0 - that would be excellent! Especially with a nice gold-mirror finish! A Tuskan Raider could be pretty cool too! Though perhaps a bit more tricky to work into the Jumbo format (what with robes rather than a well defined torso/lower-body).

 Re: Stormtrooper Jumbo news thread.
I have been pitching the C3PO idea since the start. So far it has gone over about as well as my Corgie toy idea.

 Re: Stormtrooper Jumbo news thread.
I'd like to see some Robotech VF-1, G1 Optimus Prime and He-Man jumbos down the road.

 Re: Stormtrooper Jumbo news thread.
I CAN'T BELIEVE I JUST BOUGHT THIS!  I think I'm having a heart attack...never paid this much for a toy before...ungh! I am also excited to see the packaging, and Boba also gets my vote for the next one.

 Re: Stormtrooper Jumbo news thread.
What would a jumbo C3PO shoot?
How about adding a pullstring with voice action like the Jumbo Godzilla?

 Re: Stormtrooper Jumbo news thread.
The packaging is going to really push it over the edge. It's fanfuckingtastic.
