New Imperial Snowtrooper Commander 1/6th scale Figure now available for pre-order, price revealed
Sideshowtoy.com has begun the pre-order for the new 1/6th scale action figure of an Imperial Snowtrooper Commander from The Empire Strikes Back that I’ve mentioned before in one of my previous posts (tip of the hat to Rebelscum.com)!
This figure costs $209 and it expected to ship between Jan 2018 and Mar 2018.
According to the details:
The Snowtrooper Commander comes with a new helmet sculpt designed to help reduce snow glare on the icy expanses of Hoth. To identify rank among the subordinate Snowtroopers, the Commander also comes dressed in unique chest plate, back plate, and forearm armor for maximum protection against blaster fire.
Fabric pants and a long coat ensure that the Commander stays warm in the freezing cold and has the advantage on unsuspecting enemies. This elite Imperial officer is prepared with snow boots for traversing the hostile terrain of Hoth as the AT-ATs approach for an attack.
To attack Rebel forces, the Snowtrooper Commander comes equipped with a powerful BlasTech E-11 Blaster Rifle and BlasTech DL-44 Heavy Blaster Pistol. A belt-mounted thermal detonator packs an extra punch to help finish off the Rebel base’s defenses.
The Snowtrooper Commander comes with 3 sets of armored gauntlets, including rifle grips hands, fists, and relaxed hands, for a variety of action poses leading the Empire troops into battle.
Revisit the Battle of Hoth and show off the might of the Empire with the formidable Snowtrooper Commander at the head of your collection. Fall in, troops!

New Exclusive Dianoga Trash Monster Jumbo Figure now available for pre-order on Gentlegiantltd.com
Gentlegaintltd.com has begun a pre-order for a new jumbo action of the Dianoga Trash Monster from the film A New Hope! This figure costs $85 and is expected to ship during the second quarter of 2017.
According to the details:
When the vintage Death Star Space Station Playset was released in 1978 the designers had to take some creative license on the included trash compactor monster.
We all knew about the eye stalk and the tentacles, but the wings, the mouth full of teeth and the fin were a revelation to us kids.
Now the thing lurking in the muck of the Death Star had a “face.” Grab your Jumbo Han, Luke, Leia and Chewbacca because now you can re-enact the pulse-pounding trash compactor scene from Star Wars: A New Hope with the convention exclusive Jumbo Dianoga Trash Monster!
Celebrate the 40th anniversary of Star Wars with part of one of the greatest playsets in the history of toys!
Scanned from the original vintage figure/accessory and reproduced in the 12” scale, Gentle Giant’s Jumbo Dianoga Trash Monster comes packed with accurate 3-color foam “trash” and in a spectacular vintage inspired full color box!
Gentle Giant Ltd’s Jumbos – Just like you remember, only BIGGER!
Here are some photos of this cool jumbo figure:
