For the guy looking for Kylo Ren unmasked: There's a new Black Series version coming. Personally, I'm waiting on MAFEX getting to him, since they'll probably do a pretty good cloth goods version with swappable heads, going by their past releases.

Also, I just got Shock Trooper. He is wonderfully garish.
>>
>>5381997
Where'd you see that info? Haven't heard anything about it.
>>
>>5382010
Unmasked Black Series: I can't seem to find it now, thought it was on toy ark but nothing's coming up. It looked pretty dire, though.

MAFEX: Just using my brain bone. The pattern is MAFEX announces their figures way later, usually have cloth goods and swappable heads, and Kylo would be well served by having that sort of high quality material.

Mine decided to go extra emo and shave his right eyebrow. You can see it in pic above. Apparently it's a rather common factory error for that specific figure. I enjoy it because I want my Kylo to be as emo and pathetic as possible.

Saw it at Target the other day. If they'd packed it with the Kmart sabers and alt hand, it would have been worth the buy.

Also, there was some anon in one of the other threads who asked about putting into the FO head on the OG trooper body. Here's a lineup of peg sizes for these. The best fit turns out to be the Han Solo body.

No pictures here, but the Clone Trooper body has too large of a peg, and the Scout Trooper has an adequate peg.

Head pops off super easy, can't say if other heads fit easy at all. He is super fun although he has some weird limits in posing you hit every now and then, and his feet (or rather the 5+ I've handled at least) aren't perfectly flat so getting some balancing poses aren't easy.

If you have buyers remorse with it you could still sell it on eBay for a profit

I have two with TR-8R paid for in advance.

Honestly, I want more. I kind of hated Force Awakens, but the FO Trooper design looks cool and the SHF version is crazily expressive. Almost like a Super Action Statue with more elaborate engineering (the torso joint is a work of genius). Just really, really great figures and the fun multiplies as you get more than one to pose doing goofy shit like disco dancing and wuxia.

It's pretty good, should be able to pose them how you would want to. It's a lot better than the black series. I need to glue the arms and legs in though as sometimes they'll come apart while im posing.
>>
Man, I'm slightly worried about figuarts phasma now. As long as it's just a slightly upscaled FO trooper it should be solid, but the cape could be trouble. How flexy is the cape for the black series one? Maybe it'll be possible to do a swap like Kylo's robe.
>>
>>5385716
I'm kinda prefer FO to classic, so I suggested that.

In that case though I'd say + 2 Classic troopers would be good.

I feel like 3 is the magic number for stormtrooper displays.
>>
>>5385730
It's not very pliable but comes off the black series pretty easy. All you gotta do is take the head off.
>>
>>5385733
The reason i wanted another of each was so that i could have vader with a classic trooper on each side and kylo with a FO trooper. Though it might be getter to just get a boba fett and phasma instead of just another trooper.

>>5385757
I hadn't thought of that, that would actually be really cool!

>FO worse than classic

Assuming we're talking Figuarts and not Black Series, the FO Trooper is actually by far the best they've done so far. Which armour design is best is open for debate but purely as a figure it's pretty fantastic.
>>
>>5385872
I'm talking about the bandai kits
>>
>>5385895
I'd agree in that case that the FO is worse than the OG. Still a nice kit but the rifle being a lump of black plastic and other little issues hold it back.

I really need to pick up some of the original Stormtroopers, the kit seems to be the best thing in 1/12 and second best thing to Hot Toys.

>Still a nice kit but the rifle being a lump of black plastic and other little issues hold it back.
Pretty much. I got it after i did the classic kit so by comparison i was disappointed but still not a bad figure. Prefer it to the black series.

Looks good, what kind of brush did you use and how long did it take? I really want to pick up a couple of the fighters but I'm afraid they'd go unpainted like the couple gundams I've tried my hand at.
>>
>>5386331
got the brush and paints from micheals. Paint's were just cheap acrylic. The at-st took longer as it was more fine surfaces to wipe down. I pretty much just made a wash, covered the whole thing, let it dry, and then wiped it off with a moistened paper towel or q-tip if it was too small of a spot. On the speeder i put dots of thinned paint (brown, black, and grey) and then wiped with a wet brush in the direction of air flow. The nice thing about acrylics is you can pretty much just clean it up with water if anything goes wrong.
>>
>>5385900
>but the rifle being a lump of black plastic and other little issues hold it back.

It's a MODEL KIT. If you want a fully painted action figure, then buy a fully painted action figure.

That would be like me buying the figuarts and then complaining that I didn't get to put it together.
>>
>>5386370
no because the classic weapons are just black and the gloves are just black so it seems a lot better. Also the FO kit has a seam on the abdomen which the original does not have. The chest also kind of seems a bit too large if you ask me.

black series everything is shit, yeah.

Yeah, but they're over priced at $13 a figure. Seriously considering returning Poe, Finn, and Han desu.

Well that sucks. Anywhere I can read the full list of figures in the wave? Google isn't helping me.

It really does. Finn actually looks more detailed that his 6" counterpart, but he's almost the same price which is crazy.

Jeditemplearchives probably has a list of them

Hasbro is releasing most of the movie characters in the 5 POA versions, and a handful of "black series" 3.75" figures, which seem to have the high articulation that was normal up until a few years ago. I just got back into collecting these and I really dislike the 6" scale.

I like the 3.75 scale because it matches almost everything Hasbro/Kenner has released in the last 38 years. That's a vader I picked up probably 8 years ago with the Kylo I picked up last week. To me it just feels like starting all over, plus they fit in all the vehicles.

One of them has a neck and the other one has it hidden by his extra pauldron.

Are there any good figures of the 41st Elite Corps? I know I had a big set with like 4 or 5 troopers in it when I was a kid, but they weren't very posable.
>>
>>5386975
I don't think we'll get something so specific nowadays, so you'll have to mod one of the standard troops. Though come to thing of it, I don't recall seeing any Black Series Late-Clonewars Clones
>>
>>5386976
Fuck... Is there anywhere I could find a picture listing all the available trooper figures, then, or am I on my own.
>>
>>5386370
There is absolutely no reason Bandai couldn't have supplied white plastic parts to plug into the black skeleton of the blaster. Their Gundam kits require no paint. All the other Star Wars action figure models released so far have been entirely in the correct colours.

They rushed it to market instead of going through another couple of revisions and as such it's the weakest of all the figure models they've released so far in terms of screen accuracy.
>>
>>5386900

Where u at
>>
>>5387003
>Their Gundam kits require no paint.
Wrong. Even master grade kits need paint in varying degrees.

>all the other Star Wars action figure models released so far have been entirely in the correct colours.
Wrong, and its obvious you dont own any of the kits.
The trooper needed the grey and blue painted in on the face, Fett required all the weathering to be done, and Vader only came in black, literally everything had to be painted on him.

And beyond that, its a fucking model. If you dont want to paint, and make small mods to make it fit your taste, buy a fucking action figure.
>>
So has anyone got the new black series flametrooper? I like the design so I wouldnt mind one, and I doubt bandai will make one. Is the BS any good?
>>
>>5387079
I said 'correct colours', idiot.

Stormtrooper comes with waterslides for the helmet and detonator can. Same with Boba Fett, at bare minimum he just needs silver weathering to look right. All the base colours are correctly separated in plastic.

The FO Trooper by contrast needs a tricky masking job to put the white on his gun with paint. Lazy design and patternmaking vs the previous kits.

With the kit being that tall in average, I'm rally looking forward the Phasma kit.

>>5387530
Sure it does, Finn pegwarms, why flood the pegs with a known pegwarmer?
>>
>>5387478
I'm only skipping him because he's got shitty wrists. Hopefully they do a better articulated version down the road.
>>
>>5387660
Because he actually interacted with TR-8R

To be fair, that 2-Pack pegwarms like fuck as well.
>>
>>5387660
I'm actually kind of looking forward to stormtrooper finn, because I mainly want the head and it seems like they're doing much better paintjobs than they were with the first wave. Coming with a complete trooper is sort of a bonus.

>>5386521
I'm so bummed I threw away the back piece from the shadow squad box. It's a great backdrop and I figured I'd just make a new one but I'm lazy.

Regarding the 6inch BS Luke/Han Stormtrooper disguises

Do the helmets just fit over their heads, or are they seperate heads altogether?

>>5389892
Hollow helmets that slip over the heads. They look a little off/goofy next to stock stormtroopers cause they kinda warp or bend.
>>
>>5389893

Thanks.

I guess i'm better off just tracking down regular Stormtroopers. But I feel that buying those two kind of justifies buying multiples of the 'same character'.
Also, if i'm not mistaken, Luke's trooper body is a different mold than the stock trooper, right?

Yep, shorter and wider torso. I guess it would add variety to the troops to pick up a couple of them.

Managed to get the Black Series Jango Fett and Phasma last night. They look great! I'm really happy with them.

All I need now is to get Ahsoka and Kanan, I really hope I can get my hands on them and they won't be scalped first. I kind of want a Rey, but along with Finn, I'm sure they'll have much more iconic costumes in the latter films so I'll wait. Definitely getting Old man Luke if he releases, hopefully he'll have his green lightsaber.
