Shadow Trooper pack (2008 Jedi-Con exclusive)
« on: April 15, 2010, 10:22:59 AM »
Shadow Trooper 2-pack

I was inspired to make this review after reading 501stAppo's great review of the Zuckuss and 4-LOM 2010 Jedi-Con exclusive pack. This is the exclusive pack from 2008. It includes a shadow trooper commander and a shadow trooper.

Infomation from the packaging:
These specialized troopers pose as bounty hunters or mercenaries to slip in and out of locations, quietly gathering vital information for the Republic.

The Shadow Trooper Commander
The commander is a repaint of the Clone Trooper to Stormtrooper  evolution pack Ep. III trooper. He is similar to commander Vill, Voosh or Thire. The paintwork and weathering looks perfect. One thing I don't like is that the figure comes with two grey Biker Scout blaster pistols instead of the normal DC-17 blaster pistols. They fit barely in the holsters or hands. He comes also with a grey DC-15s carbine.
The helmet and the shoulder pauldron are removable.
articulation: he is super articulated with ball- jointed neck, ball-hinged shoulders, ball-hinged elbows, swivel wrists, swivel waist, swivel hips, ball-hinged knees and ball-hinged ankles.

The Shadow Trooper
The Shadow Trooper is of course a repaint of the standard 2005 Ep. III Clone Trooper. In my opinion is the paintwork a lot better than the paintwork of the Saga Collectin Utapau Shadow Trooper. The figure comes with a grey DC-15s carbine and a grey antenna.
articulation: ball- jointed neck, ball-hinged shoulders, ball-hinged elbows, swivel wrists, ball-hinged torso, swivel hips, ball-hinged knees and ball-hinged ankles.

It is really a must-have for all Clone collectors and a great addition to every Clone army.

rating: 9,5/10

I think you're right CC
The Saga Legends version of the shadow trooper is a bit smaller than the JC exclusive version.
