I suppose this is some kind of bait thread trying to force an argument between weebs vs hipsters, so, it doesn't matter what do I ask, I don't think it can be even more shittier than what currently is.

Anyway.

Honest question: why do people like her? Other than being a chrome storm trooper, I don't see anything special about her design, and her role on the new film is basically irrelevant. So I just don't see the appeal.

Can someone explain it to me?

That's all there is to it.

as of now, the 12 inch. just lower both arms so it looks like she's resting her blaster arm.

The decent answer people are throwing around is "the same reason why people loved Boba Fett. Useless character that barely did anything, spending no more than 5 minutes of total screen time across the whole original trilogy and got offed by a blind man not knowing what the fuck he was doing.

Yet he's one of the most popular characters in the franchise. Why? Simply because he looks badass, despite all his shortcomings. The way I see it, the same applies to Phasma. She could do fuck all in the whole series and still come on top as a fan favourite, just you watch.
>>
>>5350195
Boba is getting a movie where he is badass 24/7 so he's finally gonna do something other than imprison han in carbonite and job for a joke.

Hope someone competent directs his movie so it's not shit.

>>5350195
I never cared about Fett until I read the comics, in which he was cool as hell.

Phasma did worse than doing nothing, she helped the Resistance because she was afraid of a blaster. It showed her as incredibly incompetent and pathetic. Fett at least tracked the Falcon.

All these Phasma fanboys should just fuck off already. They only like her at this point because "muh sexy female commander", when even femenazis were disappointed in her.

The only pose she needs to be able to do is surrender

I was looking forward to the character and was so disappointed with that. She ends up caving to death threats and they literally throw her away....like... why?

People were interested in her before the movie came out because we thought it was something new and cool. There hadn't actually been a stormtrooper "Character" before, and the whole chrome and cape thing made her design really stand out.

Then the movie came out and we saw what her character actually did, and now no one cares.

Comparing her to Boba Fett is ridiculous.
I always thought he was just eyecandy too, but he was moderately competent, was involved in some combat scenes and most importantly, didn't shut down the shield to the deathstar because he was afraid for his life.

And even if he did, he's just a merc. Phasma's entire existence is supposed to be her loyalty to the first order.
>>
>>5353212
The irony is that it's the regular troopers who have personality.
>>
>>5350106
>I don't see anything special about her design

She's "unique" in the universe, no one has that armour
So basically, "OH HEY, SHE'S LIKE A LIMITED EDITION STORMTROOPER" because that is literally all it is
The movie was a 135 minute advert goddamn it
>>
>>5350106
>Can someone explain it to me?

Two words: Mai Waifu

That's it. Or feminists saying she's such a "strong independent female character" when she did fuck all and her design is boring.
>>
>>5357700
I would figure feminists would find her appalling.
Even I scoffed when she gave up the security for the shields so easy.
>>
>>5350195

Boba Fett actually DID stuff. He shot his blaster, he faught Luke.

Bitch didn't do shit.
>>
>>5350195
Fett at least had Vader telling him "No Disintegrations".
Also talked back to the established badass, Vader.
And as for his death, even if it was shitty, said blind man was a main character who's known for being lucky.

Phasma just reprimanded a subordinate then crumples when said subordinate and an old man point a gun at her.

The only thing her and Fett share in common is cool armour.

Phasma has character, she was a huge coward who put her own life ahead of everyone on that planet. She was shown to be a complete hypocrite, a stickler for rules unless she was the one breaking them.

What a fucking tool for commercialism.

She was barely in the movie.
>>
>>5357733
>"No Disintegrations"
Yeah, that line pretty much summed up everything ou needed to know about Boba.

The prsentations are completely different. Phasma just had a very bad presetnation.
>>
>>5357878
if that's how you want to see it as, then sure. The problem is we didn't see enough of her to actually get a character from her. Nice analysis though, and I'm not being sarcastic when I say that.
>>
>>5358060
Oh man I am so sorry for those typos.
>>

Why couldn't it have been Phasma who fought the lightsaber wielding Finn? The regular grunt's weapon was so cool and I found the fight really memorable.
>>
>>5359281
Because she's a GIRL.
>>
>>5350195
Fett was a cool in empire, not the main character not the most important part of the movie, but he looked cool and completed his job. Phasma has no empire, just return of the jedi, and even comparing Jedi fett with TFA Phasma fett is still a little less shitty.
>>
>>5350106
>got a lot of focus in the ad campaign + merchandise, like she was going to be the secondary (if not primary) villain
>impressively stylish, for a tweaked Stormtrooper re-skin with a cape
>my own weakness for classically evil villainess characters
That's about it. Honestly, I can't say I'm happy with what the movie actually did with her, but I don't have it in me to accept her yet more wasted potential. Not after I had my heart set on liking her so much. She was essentially advertised a waifu-able Boba Fett, but turned out to be the new trilogy's cowardly equivalent to Darth Maul.
>>

>>5359723
>Phasma has no empire, just return of the jedi

Except this isn't the last movie of the trilogy she's a part of, it's the first, and this time the people making it KNOW there are two more movies they have to push out, so they can afford to leave certain characters underdeveloped on purpose so they can be expanded upon in the sequels. If Episodes VIII and IX come and go and Phasma still somehow manages to be just a shiny pile of nothing that she was in VII, THEN you can talk about her wasted potential, but to do it now is more than a little premature.

Granted, after TFA, she's going to have to do some truly impressive shit to redeem herself, but after seeing what a total badass they can make a Stormtrooper be, I'm willing to give them a chance to show what they can do with her.
>>
>>5360938
>disgraced and cast out from the only home she has ever known yet still bound by the ingrained loyalty built into her blood, she has to do some serious shit to redeem her honor for a force which hates her yet she cannot stand to see it fail

It's gonna be great, Jay

The 3.75 Captain Phasma is one of the few I like from the current Hasbro TFA line. If you like 3.75, get one.

Disney cockblocked Bandai from selling their Star Wars kits outside of Japan, so most of the usual places don't ship them internationally. Plamoya and CDJapan don't give a shit about that, though, and still sell the kits worldwide, so either of them is a good bet.

I don't want to waste my money on thousands of figs like probably most of you here, so I just want one dope as looking one with a lot of articulation. The figs with actual faces always look retarded so I figured a stormtrooper works best, and while I'm at it, might as well get the stormtrooper with a cape that won't look silly by itself.

Plus Phasma's going to be important rebel scum in the next movies.
