Topic: Black Series 6" Stormtrooper

Missed that too. Not good not to be at home, I have there about 260 high-res ANH Stormtrooper pics.

A combo of 2 cropped ones:

BTW is there any kind of stand for these guys?

Nope. No stands for these six inch figures.

It would be cool to have some clear acrylic stands to help support these figures, especially the Sandtrooper with its backpack.

I agree. I would have liked to have seen some of these too.

Still, and folks who have these figures please share your views, I haven't had much trouble getting them to stand. I also think it is only a matter of time probably till some other manufacturers gives us some six inch stands for these if they don't already exist.

Here are some NECA stands for 6-8" figures that will be released:

Yeah, I kinda figure someone would fill in that gap already. I mean its not like other lines haven't had six inch figures for awhile now.

Good link for folks though.

First of all I want to say I agree about repacking the DLT-19 with the stormies. Secondly I want to add that I believe there are some shots in ANH aboard the Death Star where we see a rack of DLT-19s in one of the ready rooms. Thirdly I would have loved to see an SE-14r (as made popular with stormtroopers by Davin Felth, and in the Battlefront games) included in the pack along with the E-11 and the DLT-19. The DLT-20A is nice too, as it was used by Imperial sharpshooters (see the "sniper" scouts in BF2), but it's definitely not what we've seen in the films.

But most importantly I need to get my hands on a squad of these figures! I haven't seen any on the racks at all, and I'd love to not pay over the $20 they cost in the stores.

Try this link out AFE. Solid case packs of 4 of em at that price.

Crums! October is too far away, said the 8 year old toy collector inside me. Well that's when my 2 Walgreens Fetts are coming in, so I guess 4 stormies would be fun too.

[Tamer]

I hear you AFE, but I doubt you will find em cheaper unless you luck onto something till then. Folks just want too much for em right now since they are pretty rare.

[ActionFigEmpire]

Very true and it really sounds like the best way to go. I have to ask, and yes this is super neurotic and OCD even for a collector, but how is the paint on the troopers you got? I've notice, just as with most Hasbro figures, there tend to be paint discrepancies with the 6 inch figures. Some more excusable than others. I have 2 Fetts and they both have paint apps that are slightly off.

I haven't gone over mine with a microscope and I wouldn't say they are one hundred percent perfect, but mine look pretty decent.
