I got two of them for my space opera collection. I need two of every "grunt" figure. Having said that I'm unsure of whether or not I need a second Scout Trooper, as he is a special deluxe release. I'm also uncertain of whether or not I need to increase the "grunt" count to three. I guess you could say I'm suffering in autist hell.

Not that guy, but that's still way too much. 2000Y more than the standard release, for them to take away the blaster and just give the baton and shield? For an army builder?

Get with the times faggots. Funko is the only way to go.

Model kit sucks ass, dude. Proportions are fucked up, weapon coloring is completely off, and articulation is only marginally better than Black Series. I'm not putting in the hour it takes to build for a mediocre product when I can pay 30 more and get a much better figure.

All Phasma has to do is actually be a character in the next film and she will have succeeded him.

I don't see how she's coming back from a planet exploding around her
>>
>>5348765
probably got collected by hux when he picked up kylo
>>
>>5348824
Or she just let herself out of the compactor through the door. Wasn't the whole reason they were suck in the first film because they didn't have the code to get the door open? She probably has a master code to the whole base.
>>
The movie just didnt have time to develop everyones character. Even at 2 hours and 45 minutes, some of the character development already felt kind of light.

I would not be surprised to see her play a larger role in the upcoming movies, particularly the one shots.
>>
>>5348581
Oh that's weird as the first order troop model kit is the worst of the three...
>>
>>5348831
That's my issue with the movie as well. While I really enjoyed it, it didn't give enough screen time to the other characters like Phasma to develop especially given how much they advertised her. I had thought she'd be the character who would show up and kick everyone's shit in. But we'll see, hopefully she plays a larger more imposing role in the sequels.
>>
>>5348824
I will concede that by movie rules since we didn't see her die she's probably alive but she was a nothing character in this movie. If she had barked some orders in the first scenes on jaaku it probably wouldn't be so bad but she literally walked in after all the shit went down.

I'm glad I barely got much Phasma now. In the little screentime she had, she was such a faggot and caused the defeat of the entire First Order without so much as a "No I won't do that."

At least Boba Fett didn't accidentally cause the ewoks to beat the Empire. What a complete let down for a character.

And she's supposed to come back for the sequel? I almost don't want to see her again. It's funny how her figure prices have been dropping since the film came out.

>>
>>5349293
I think she was a microchosm (is that the right word?) for how hypocritical the First Order is.

All the stormtroopers are identical, they even need permission to take off their helmets. They are expected to comply with every order and if they're not, they're sent to some reconfiguring brainwashing seminar or something.

Meanwhile we have Phasma, who wears different armor, has a different clothing article that denotes her rank relative to other ranking stormtroopers, and in the end, isn't herself as loyal as she expects her troopers to be when it comes to defending the first order.

She and Finn are opposite sides of the same coin. Finn cannot betray his morality despite his apparent brainwashing and upbringing. Phasma cannot betray her survival instinct, despite her apparent brainwashing and unbringing. One betrays the first order because of his sense of compassion, the other one betrays the First Order to save her own skin.

A stormtrooper isn't supposed to have personality.

Based on Finn's rebellion I'm guessing the new Stormtroopers aren't 100% robots like the old ones post Order 66.
>>
>>5349759
It was just weird that suddenly a no-name no-face stormtrooper suddenly goes "Traitor!" and does a manly duel with Finn, then gets blown out immediately after.

The only purpose of that scene was just to add in a lightsaber fight.

It would have had more weight if it was Phasma, with her feeling more responsible and actually recognizing Finn from back when he took his helmet off.

You don't think the FO would have put Finn's face on a wanted poster everywhere?
>>
>>5349780
It's not the recognizing Finn that's the problem, it's the Stormtrooper showing off a personality.

This wasn't some Stormtrooper that had any links to Finn, it was just a run-of-the-mill extra Stormtrooper, why'd he go all gladiator instead of just shooting Finn like any other trooper would?

I don't know, maybe the scene was supposed to emphasize that Finn was highly hated within the FO, but the scene felt out of place.
At least make the stormtrooper somehow notable, maybe he was a friend of Finn's, maybe he fought beside Finn before, we'd never know because they're stormtroopers and they're not supposed to have character, they're fodder.
>>
>>5347850
You know what I like about this one? They actually put a window in the shield. I can understand why the Black Series didn't do it, but for the price of the SHF shouldn't it be more than just a black triangle? It's not like clear plastic is expensive.

The only pro I can see for the SHF would be in not having to paint the baton, but that's pretty minor considering it's mostly just white with bands of silver.

Black series guns are pretty similar to shf guns, that's the one thing that isn't a problem to give to one.

Besides, that one jap put the black series Kylo head and cloth goods on his SHF and made it 100% better.

>>5349950
I dunno man, I haven't watched it yet, but everyone's saying she Danny Devitoed and then the area she was in exploded.

But as people pointed out, in the OG starwar's trash compactor they couldn't get out because they didn't have the code. She's the commander so she probably knows the code, or simply had access.

It mostly sounds like they couldn't fit her into things later on and needed a way to get rid of her so the rest of the cast could do their thing.

I've seen people in movies come back from more bullshit than that. I mean, Natalie Portman's career came back after being in the starwars prequels.

Bought this one (it was only 2400y here).
There's a reason why they're hiding the vibro blade hand behind the shield in that pic.
He can't actually fucking hold it.
It's beyond retarded. There's one hand that can hold the blaster, but none for the blade.

The articulation is great, and I like the overall look, but the arm joints are weak as fuck for some reason.
It's generally a display model through and through - it's not as solid enough to be played roughly with.
Which is fine with me - I wanted it to try some simple stop-motion - but I thought you guys ought to know.

>>
>>5350000
I imagine that the First Order troopers may have been trained to suppress their emotions, but they weren't complete robots. Finn felt strongly enough about his actions to rebel, and once he wasn't in an environment where there were commanding officers breathing down his neck, his actual personality shone through. In the same vein, TR-8R probably just felt really fucking strongly about the whole betrayal thing, to the point where he couldn't contain himself and had a little outburst when he saw Finn.

Probably the only standout character in the film.

Oh, okay. My bad.
This is my first kit, so it just stood out as a "downside".

>>5352344
No problem.
I should probably add that though I said the articulation is "great", it's actually not completely satisfying. The legs, in particular, could bend a lot more. He can't really crouch or even sit properly (removing some of the props on the belt allows for more hip movement, but the knees don't really go any sharper than 40-45 degrees).
He can cros his legs, though.

Remember, Figuarts are above reproach on /toy/ and considered trolling if you bring up any flaw.

The kit actually stands very similar to the Black version. At a glance I can't really tell mine apart until I look for the cleaner lines and joints. Which feel nice and sturdy, not at all like a flimsy gundam.

Traitor Control Trooper is legitimately the best duellist in the new movie, on par with Kylo Ren. He would have killed Finn had Chewbacca not shot him.
His entrance was fantastic, Finn slices up two dudes and that fucking guy just calmly shouts "traitor" and then proceeds to ditsh all his gear except for the baton and then annihilates him.

Traitor Control Troopers duel was even referenced within the movie by the Kylo Ren/Finn duel starting with the same camera movement from Finns face towards his enemy in the background after said enemy said "traitor" (Kylo made a very long shout).

It was the best part of the movie aside from the opening destruction of the village and Finn/Poe escaping with a TIE Fighter.

Well I would certainly agree that's a minus, but you can't go around saying he can't hold the baton when he clearly can easily hold it, even it if the hand has an extended trigger finger.
>>
>>5355489
>>5355451
>>5355480
That picture is a very scummy half-truth. The baton's weight is used to balance it against the inside of the hand. If you bump it even slightly it'll fall down.

>>5349856

yeah he throws his weapon away, and whips out the baton. kinda silly IMO

How is it silly? He didn't know that Finn wasn't a Jedi. He saw a lightsaber, often known to deflect blaster shots, and figured it would be best to go melee in the situation.

I didn't think much at all of the movie, but some of the designs were kick-ass.

Where does it say that Stormies can't have personality? The Gen-1 Jango Troopers were noted as having stunted personalities, but that gets thrown out the window in the next movie and the cartoons.

I'm not a big fan of the new Troopers but the Riot Trooper looks bad-ass.

>>5356810
The FA as a action flick is entertained and even funny, nobody denies that, the acting is good, the score is really good, the effects are really good too, no doubt normies like it, but as a Star Wars movie something feels off, like not right and I think the reason is because this movie lacks the mysticism, symbolism and spirit that were trademarks of Star Wars until now.
All the plots feel derivative and pointing to the OT but without their soul, The characters arcs are poor mimics to the originals and mishandled, feeling little connection with them, heck I felt more linked with Luke in the scene contemplating the sunset in Tattoine (pic related) that with Rey and Fin in the entire movie.

In resume, Jar Jar Abrams was successful in creating a self-packed Blockbuster appealing to the mass and the fans but failed miserably in creating a real Star Wars movie.

>>5354844
Yeah, the scene with Riot Trooper is one of the most eye catching moments of the FA and almost all the merit belongs to TR-8R H8R.
