Here’s more pictures of Bandai’s Star Wars model kits from the 55th All Japan Model show. Shadow Trooper revealed, closer shots of BB-8, and yet more Captain Phasma!
The Shadow Trooper has been revealed as a S.H. Figuarts figure and now a model. Like the Sandtrooper I can understand the reuse. It’s going to use most of the parts from the Stormtrooper again but with a whole new color scheme. Looks cool, makes sense. But at this point is the Shadow Trooper even canon? Hopefully soon?
BB-8 is coming in a two pack with a re-release of R2-D2. It looks fantastic, and it apparently comes with a clear base to hold him up and “pose” him. Practical, but will it replace the Black Series version? The sizes are pretty close and the BS figure has a fancy balancing weight in it that works great. Hmmm.
Can you tell I’m excited about Phasma? Again, I hope she is chromed out. Please please please.
Army of First Order Stormtroopers, anyone?
And finally, a shot of the model Boba Fett, who is releasing this coming week. Hopefully he’ll be in my grubby hands within the next two weeks.
