Shadow Stormtrooper and Scout Trooper with Speeder Bike (Target)

[GNT]

Joked about seeing it last week but Hasbro has now released pictures of the Shadow Stormtrooper and
Scout Trooper with Speeder Bike which will be a Target exclusive in the States:

Anyone interested in this one?

 

[HanShotFirst97]

I really like the shadow scout. It looks great. I think using the Stormtrooper instead of the Sandtrooper would have been a little better for the shadow stormtrooper.

Expected release Oc. 2014 according to @MattGuzy.

 

[BigBayBlue]

If given the option I would buy the Shadow Scout and pass on the Stormtrooper - but I doubt I will have the choice. The black speeder bike is likewise not overly appealing to me. I guess I'll have to wait and see what this set cost. But if it's $60 (which would stand to reason) I'll likely pass.

I'll definitely buy several of these even though I already have 6 SDCC Shadow Scouts w/ Bike and 24+ various Shadow Stormtroopers. The pauldron is an interesting twist for the Shadow Stormtrooper. This can give them a different rank or specialty. I'm still building my SW armies when possible even though I'm trying to cut down and get rid of excess things.

 

[DeckOfficer]

Oh wait. Just noticed this is filed under 6". In that case, I might buy just one. Don't even want to attempt army building any more with 6".

So... would there be any chances of a online to carry them for international fans?

 

[OdinsDad]

It is a very cool item, I just don't have an interest in the backstory just yet.

 

[UTINI]

Looks really cool, but I'm not so sure about a shadow sandtrooper. I suppose you can easily take all his gear off and have an instant black hole stormtrooper.

Tempting......dang it!

 

[ElusiveWookiee]

Solid black figures in a solid black box. Are we sure they're not exclusive to Hot Topic?

 

[OB1Knobby]

I cannot wait for this to hit! To think we'll get a Biker Scout repaint so soon is amazing. So glad this series/scale is taking off.

If they don't, just come find me and I'll help you out B)

 

[PROVOST]

The Biker Scout I like,the Stormtrooper not so much but it's cool of course for fans of the Black Stormtrooper.

Nice! I didn't think they'd do a shadow scout but I love the dark armor. Not loving the Stormtrooper as much though.

 

[DJ121]

It looks like an amazing set, but I will probably pass. I'd rather spend the money on a second ROTJ Scout and bike.

 

[DarthJefe]

I want to call Hasbro out on being lazy here, but I gotta admit this does look sweet.

 

[Snaggletooth]

Definite buy for me.

 

[GNT]

This set makes you wonder why they didn't toss in another trooper for the normal Speeder Bike version....hhhmmm.

 

[Bolingbroke]

Aren't these EU?

 

[DarthNexus]

Scout looks great! Sandy looks ok I guess, not really a wow on that one but I'd consider getting one of each

 

[LilToe]

So is this a set of scout trooper, speeder and shadow trooper? Or shadow trooper alone and scout trooper and speeder in a different set?

 

[jalthe1andonly]

All in one set.

 

[OB1Knobby]

I'm just gonna yank that pauldron off and pose him next to my Sideshow and 4" versions as a regular Blackhole Trooper. I like the extra features/accessories. Doesn't mean I have to use them B)

 

[RegJr]

Big pass. But I understand that Hasbro has to recoup some cost. Makes sense.

 

[BIGJIM]

Confirmed

Availability: Early November
Price: $49.99
DPCI: 087-06-1202

I'll wait until January and get a few for $25.

 

[PoeGhostal]

I'm warming up to this set. Honestly I could probably live without the bike trooper, but I like the stormtrooper.

$50 is better than the &60 I expected - but that $25 plan sounds pretty good. Hope that works.

 

[zethi]

Love the Shadow Scout, the dark navy under suit is really working for me. My most anticipated release by far.

 

[matto]

these look pretty nice but probably a set I'll be skipping.

 

[Spookymufu]

easy pass for me, but have they said why they used the sandtrooper instead of the stormtrooper? And so much for No EU huh?

 

[HanShotFirst97]

This set will release in October in the United Kingdom via Diamond Comics.

 

[rnbuda]

These are pretty nice, and not bad for $49.99!

 

[DarthNexus]

Whoa for $50 for bike and figs? Count me in on payday!

 

[starshark]

When are these supposed to hit. I hope not too soon because I have spent hundreds on this stuff in the last week. .my wallet needs to recover.

 

[agentofchaos]

It said Oct on the SDCC listing.

 

[GNT]

I can live without this one in my collection.

 

[Celticsfan]

Does anyone know if this set will be available for purchase through Target.com? If not, I'll be making the two hour trek to my nearest Target come November... but only after I'm certain they've got plenty in stock, or maybe get someone to hold one for me at customer service.

 

[DarthNexus]

Checked my target, all they had was like 40 Greedo and Leias. No. ****ing. Joke.

 

[LilToe]

I know this has been asked before but any idea of the release window?
