Here is a pic of the Medicom Sandtrooper that came in yesterday.

Looks great - not sure about the big rifle sticking out of his back though


Where you get it from??
Can't wait for mine

Hehe. Sideshow was selling them but I think they are sold out/

wouldn't get it of Sideshow anyway
:D

I have one ordered from Forbidden Planet. Great compnay that would be greater if they told you items were in the post.

I'm guessing these don't appear in the UK until around the time of CE

Here is a group pic.

I gave into the darkside on firday night and ordered one of those crappy EU shadowtroopers - cause it was cheap :D
£48 and postage from Japan should take it up to the £60 sort of area
Beats paying £109+ shipping from Forbidden Planet

Too bad, Medicom didn't issue this one w/ a proper ANH Sanndtrooper helmet/... looks like they just used the helmet from the previous ST figure [would have been nice to have a high-brow helmet w/ green/flat lenses] and added some weathering... same goes for the hand-plates/armor... well, at least they added the sniper-knee... still - these are beautiful figures - miles above anything a US company would have produced.

As good as the figure is. Dont get me wrong, but not haveing the ANH helmet just kills it. I just have to look at it as the ANH SE version. Still love it though. I just hope that when Sideshow gets to making armored figures, they get them right.
