Oh I get why someone would want to, just speaking for myself I don't have a single piece in my collection that truly benefits from having an articulated head. Add to that heads that do have a ball-joint often make the helmet appear to sit unnaturally high on the body creating a pencil neck or bobble head appearance. I'd rather just see a good natural fixed pose chosen, which I think they've done here.

Not a bad ES although I am still on the fence with this piece. I love the Sandtroopers but I am just not sure if they are iconic enough to add to my collection.

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

Ordered

Descent ES
Nice base and design
Will fit nice with the previous droid base and commander cody base,
All with sand.

Add a monthly discount code and it makes it 399$ !!!

Maybe the last StarWars PF at that price.
