Also, everyone was wetting their pants for Captain Phasma stuff until they saw the movie.
I know what you're saying. Personally, as cool as the design is, I probably won't get this. I buy statue related collectibles based on nostalgia; it has to have some sort of connection to my childhood or significant aspect of my life.

Star wars univers it's to big and way to awesome to compress it to OT only..

And about that question.. death trooper are appearing in the upcoming Rouge one movie and has been seen in the trailers also.

To me..those troopers are one of th3 best trooper designs of all movies.. if price is right it's a def. Buy for me.

Wow, this looks awesome! That said, I will most likely not get it. Really trying to limit my SW buying to OT for larger pieces. If anything I will pick up the bust if GG does one.

That's how it started for me. But now look at me...I have Maul on order. I picked up Malgus. And I'm excited about new SW pieces coming at us like this.

I'm not sure how they have these badass black troopers in R1 that don't carry over to OT. Not sure how that will work. Somewhere along the line somebody gotta be like "nope. Paint em all white. Nobody'll see em coming".

Well these troopers are kind of iconic imo, this is the first thing we saw from this movie in the teaser for the first trailer

And these guys have been seen doing more in the couple short trailers than phasma did in all of TFA. All black "death troopers" a special ops devision of the empire? Bad ass
