Is the double pack with this and Poe worth 70 aussie bucks? Saw it at Target today, was tempted to get it since Black Series stuff barely ever shows up here.
>>
>>5358978
where is it cheaper? i think since the bandai plamo was banned by revell or whatever prices have gone up.
>>
>>5359054
From what I've heard Po is pretty good and will likely be a hard to come by figure later on, and the stormtrooper is a stormtrooper. I'm not a giant fan of the fact they dropped the double jointed elbows in the FA line but if you can work past that then he is just as good as other black series.

>>
>>5359388
These pics just had me looking up this kit.. Could not make myself pull the trigger since I already have a modded Black Series regular trooper, but I did wind up getting the C-3PO and R2/R5 kits to go along with the Phasma kit I pre-ordered.
>>
>>5359467
PSSSHHHH DROID PLEEEEZE!
>>
>>5359055
The kit can be gotten for around $25 shipped, whereas the Black Series set with the trooper and Poe is $40. Unless you want Poe as well, the model kit is probably the best choice in terms of money.

I don't like Star Wars.

It's soft goods so you can put it down as if he's lowered it. With heat I'm sure you can pop the head off and take it off. I saw a video where a guy modded his with different fabric.
>>
>>5359355
And he did.
>>
>>5359210
Thanks mate, I might pick it up then, although they had quite a few in stock so I might wait a bit in case Target have any SW sales coming (which I doubt).

All the early POTF2 figures were like that. Kinda funny in hindsight.

>>5359388
Dude theres a really noticable nub around the black mouth piece section of the helmet, just get rid of that and it will be good
>>
>>5358776
Not in 3.75" scale. Otherwise I'd buy the shit out of him.
>>
>>5360367
Yeah, I know. It was my first kit assembly.
I considered trying to fix it, but I only have a very big and unwieldy cutter at the moment, and I wouldn't want to fuck up the entire helmet.

Just got him in the two pack, hes pretty fun. Had to cut his shield to get it off though, but he can still use it.

The elbows are awful though. How does one go about modding them?

I love mine. I'll take an Exacto to it later tho and cut into the arm so you can move the shield down and be able to bend the Elbow.
The Baton is pretty loose in his Right hand on mine tho.
>>
I'm eager to see the TR-8R vs Finn cosplay in the future.
>>
So I think I'm going to get the black series, even though I thought I was done with the line for good. I understand that the elbows aren't double jointed anymore which is a shame.

>>5363130
>>5363162
What's this I hear about modding the shield? What's a nice easy way of doing that?

Does he only come in the two pack? I liked po in the movie but I only collect troopers so I'd rather get tr8r alone. Also where do I find this guy in USA? Paint isn't reliable enough for online order. Target? walgreens?

You don't have to take an exacto to it. Applying some hot water to the area will get the shield off

These look ok, the Black Series Kylo Ren looks like shit though, I don't get why people fawn over it.
>>
>>5363636
....and also my post was about how you don't need to take an exacto to it to get the shield off. Just soak it in some warm water for two minutes. Even lazy anons can accomplish that.

Yea he's only 2 pack but I love Poe with Jacket so it works out.
I found these guys at Target. You can find them at Walmart, Target and Toy R Us mainly and maybe other shops but it'll be easier at the big 3.

>>5363537
Yea my Rainbow is complete of all current releases.
When I took the pic I didn't notice one was tilted and it drives my OCD crazy.

>>5363587
I hope so but to me it looks like he has too much plastic just above the Elbow so even loosening it might not work. i could be wrong but I just want to be able to scoot the Shield up a bit so he can bend his Elbow better.
>>
>>5364431
I've done it myself after having it suggested to me by a member of another forum. It should work.

I cut mine at the bottom of the elbow strap, its barely noticable and makes putting it on and removal a lot easier. You just have him hold the front strap in his hand, and then pop the other strap over his arm.
>>
>>5364463
OR you could do this. Whatevers easiest for you. Personally I prefer the water method as I like keeping my figures as intact as possible, however the cut anon above made seems really minor in terms of appearance so you could go either way.

This isn't even my photo. It's from yak face. I just got a shift manager to price match after a lot of begging

Oh shit that's a good deal. Is it all Walmarts?
>>
>>5371480
Where are they price matching from?
>>
>>5371480

At $20, it would be awesome to army build these. You could just line them up throughout your house, filling entire rooms like a silent army of Terracotta Stormtroopers watching over your domain.

Not tr-8r, just a stormtrooper

Yes, definitely.

>>5371482

No. It's a total fluke. They're $80 on the website. Usually Walmart will only price match the website. I had to go to several locations until I found so done who would price match the pic. I also did a lot of lying. Again, that's not even my pic.

FYI, most of the stores I went to also had the Jakks R2 for $20. It's usually $50.

>>5371484

Awesome!

BTW, this guy speaks and has two modes. Motion detection and push button.
