I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

One of the statues I was looking for finally arrived: Attakus 1/5 Sandtrooper Sergeant. A very cool and impressive statue, with a much better pose then the orange pauldron version, I got it from a German collector I met on FB. It's cool to compare the helmets of the Attakus Stormtrooper and Sandtrooper, and see the differences, the Stormie looks quite odd, even for a ROTJ inspired helmet, but the Sandtrooper looks pretty good considering Attakus was never too much into accuracy.

A nice Imperial logo banner I just received, it will stay on that door only for a while, until it might be replaced by a larger one.

Excellent collection of Stormtroopers. Is the big one by Sideshow Collectibles?
That door with Star Wars window design windows looks amazing!

One of the oldest pieces (figure) in my collection is the Medicom - RAH Stormtrooper
Maybe some day i will pick up a Hot Toys Stormtrooper, or maybe a 1/4 statue


Medicom - RAH Stormtrooper 11.1/2 inches tall (figure)

Thank you. The big statue in the cabinet where the Attakus statues are is a custom 1/3 piece made by JudgeDredd on RPF.

Medicom Stormies are very cool, I still have him in my collection, while the 1/6 Stormies from Sideshow are long gone and replaced by Hot Toys. The Medi Stormies are a tad smaller than HT or SSC figures, and they seem to be a combination of ANH and ROTJ Stormies.

One thing that you should know is that they say the Medi joints might fail in time, and hands or legs can break at those joints, no issues with mine though.

Nah, it looks more inaccurate even than Attakus version. MYC might be good at other sculpts, but his TIE Pilot is a big miss
