Re: Sideshow 1/6 Sandtrooper


I like the different variations with this sandtrooper as compared to the Medicom sandtrooper but and its a very BIG BUT...if the body is gonna be as ****ty as Clone Armour Obi, I ain't getting it.

I think I ought to give myself a new resolution, keep off from SSC products until they seriously improve.

You know Jun, you're right. Although I really really really want Snake Eyes, I'm very worried about this. Think I'll ponder upon this more later.

Side Question re: Storm Troopers


Hey they're not clones! emoticon

Quick geek question... are Storm Troopers all Clone Troopers (clones of Jango)? Or are they all different races, etc. wearing Storm Trooper armour? Thought I would ask, i'm reading some old Dark Horse Star Wars comics and the Storm Troopers are all different under their helmets.

Re: Sideshow 1/6 Sandtrooper


Im not good at explaining so I just gonna copy and paste the info from wikipedia

According to Star Wars Battlefront II, the surviving clone troopers were fitted with new armor and weapons, and became the Imperial Stormtrooper Corps of the Empire. Because of their susceptibility to manipulation by the Kaminoans (who led a revolt against the Empire), Jango Fett clones throughout the force were slowly replaced by non-clone recruits. One of the few stormtrooper legions to remain "pure" (completely composed of Fett clones) throughout the era of the Empire was the fictional 501st Legion, which was named in honor of a real-world fan group called the 501st Legion.

Re: Sideshow 1/6 Sandtrooper


I saw the new pictures and frankly speaking Im very tempted but.........I think I shall wait till SS Storm troopers are out and see if they fix the loose body issue.

btw, does anyone think that the sandtrooper's feet looks kinda small?
