:banghead:

i'm going to pass up 6544270576. i would be crushed if another "edition" came out. i just have this weird feeling that attakus will release it again. if not, i'll hopefully get it for less. i guess i'll just settle for the medicom stormtroopers for now. :laugh:

*sigh* so much to buy..

do you have it and are going to sell it, or you are saying you will not bid on the above auction?

I'm after this one too. But I want a "deal", so I'm waiting to see what's coming up. ;)

Another stormtrooper is not being released....at least that is what I was told from Attakus 6 months ago.

The sandtrooper is coming out but I prefer standard stormtroopers.

Regardless, how could you only want one of these P1? :)

Nice pic Gruson!
I think P1X it's talking about another edition of the same statue(just like Attakus did with Japan(200 pieces of each statue)

ps: I know where those stormtroopers are. :)

i know, i know. i'm agonizing over this. this ebay seller has this one up for auction. i believe he's already sold 4 of the 200. i think this is a bit more because it's a low number. booo, i don't care about low numbers.. hmmm.. grumble, grumble..

P1X, I know a friend that bought 2 Emperor Guards from this seller. He just sold a stormtrooper for $750, so if you buy from him, make sure to mention this and maybe he will lower the price some. ;)

Make him a deal on two of them. :)

Gotcha Cap....maybe we can talk Attakus into a US edition of 200 for these stormtroopers. :)

i don't want to spend more than $800 for this piece. :) we'll coordinate on it before he makes them available. i emailed him about it and he said he'll have some in a month.

wow, shipping on the two stormtroopers was fast! auction was won on wed. seller shipped thu (from japan) and delivery attempt was on saturday. unfortunately, i used my work's address. shipping is closed at work so it got re-delivered just today.

i haven't opened it yet. i'm waiting for everyone to go home first. :)

here they are! the helmet looks to be part Stunt/Hero combo. the lenses have that bubbled Hero look and low brow but the teeth are definitely Stunt. enjoy!

Those pics are really nice. I'm thinking about getting the stormtrooper too, go with the vader I got coming. I have a Koto sandtrooper, swapped the heads and used a GG stormtrooper bust's head since I love the stunt helmet so much better.

Speaking of, love that stunt helmet replica. Very impressive. Man, those are expensive though. Thanks again for the pics, your vader II pics were the deciding factor for me. :buttrock:

thanks! i have all three kotos. they're pretty cool! your custom looks great! i agree with you regarding the Stunt. i prefer that over the Hero. i don't like that bug eyed look. :laugh: i can't wait till they release the Sandtrooper!

Awesome pics, P1X! :thumbs2:
I will end up getting a couple of those down the road. I just need to let my wallet breath a little. Those last months were heavy.
If you find out about Boba, let me know. :)
