Soldiers unswervingly loyal to the Emperor, stormtroopers represented the most visible extension of Imperial might. They were shock troopers meant to strike with speed and accuracy, putting down insurrections and maintaining order on the farflung worlds of the Empire. Stormtroopers served both the ground-based armies of Palpatine's forces, and the space-based Imperial starfleet.

Stormtrooper training stressed complete indoctrination in the tenets of the New Order, and individuals would obey their officers without question, without regard to the rights of others or even to their own safety. Stormtroopers abandoned individuality in exchange for their loyalty. They are completely encased in a white armored spacesuit shell, and are armed with blaster pistols or blaster rifles. Their helmets contain comlinks for long-range communications. Officers were denoted with colored shoulder pauldrons. Specific environments called for specially trained and equipped stormtroopers, such as the snowtroopers that besieged the ice world of Hoth and the lightly-armored scout trooper that patrolled the forests of Endor.

This review is from: Star Wars Sideshow Collectibles 12 Inch Action Figure Imperial Stormtrooper (Toy)

This review is not about the item. All the Sideshow products seem to be great and as advertised. However, GoHastings, the seller on Amazons shared marketplace is deceptive and should be avoided like the plague. Here is my return request to Amazon after receiving NO assistance from the company:
1. Item was USED not NEW as advertised. I have taken pictures of the used item (item is in used condition AND item packaging is clearly damaged from a previous owners handling) and will be happy to forward them to you.
2. Item was in a used and damaged shipping box with inadequate packaging material.
3. NO REFUND has been forthcoming from the company even after phone calls and e-mails requesting a refund.
4. Due to their FALSE advertising (USED not NEW product) I want shipping and handing returned also.
5. AMAZON should not do business with this company, they have deceptive practices!!!

Buy from a different seller.

This review is from: Star Wars Sideshow Collectibles 12 Inch Action Figure Imperial Stormtrooper (Toy)

I'm not sure why the other reviewer is rating the seller as this is NOT the appropriate place, this person should be banned from using Amazon ever again. This Sideshow Stormtrooper is everything you could want in a collectible figure, and looks excellent next to the 1/6 Darth Vader. Very high quality, as just about every Sideshow product seems to be. If I had any qualm it would be that some Sideshow figures seem a bit loose in the knees, but then again they do come with stands to hold them up. But I would prefer if the joints were a little tighter aross the board, in particular the knee joints.
