So this hopefully will be last, unless a chrome trooper is around the corner to go along with the gold one.

Blackhole troopers first appeared in Crimson Empire but thanks to Disney that no longer exists

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

No doubt about it, Stormie is the new IM!

Spacetrooper, despite its very short screen time has been present on screen in the Original Trilogy, not SE. So is movie accurate, and Joe Johnston was wearing that armor:
All these rainbow colored Battlefront Stormtroopers or gold, silver, chrome, you name it, variants have no direct relation to OT.

That looks cool. I won't be getting it as I already ordered Finn and TR8R set. I am waiting for Poe in X-wing pilot outfit. And maybe an unmasked Kylo

LOL, you are hilarious dude. Read your own post again and see what someone can understand from it : "I mean Spacetrooper was in the film for a few seconds? I thought Lucas added them into the SE of ANH, it was such a over the head appearance!". Spacetrooper added in SE? Yeah, you know your stuff...
And the fact that something looks like a Stormtrooper doesn't mean they are truly related. From OT so far HT released: Stormtrooper(s), Luke Stormie, upcoming Han Stormie, Spacetrooper and Sandtrooper. These are the only ones that appeared in movies. Everything else is EU, games etc. So no direct link to OT. Get my point now?

I recieved my jumptrooper today. It is still in the box, but I did check it out. For those interested, the jet pack is attached via magnets. So it makes a decent weathered stormtrooper without the pack. Of course there's the Jedha Patrol trooper from Rogue One for those who want a slight variation in the armor design.

I had to destroy my sideshow Jango Fett because the attachments to the jetpack were so naff!
