Online stores (including at least one of our sponsors) are shipping out a new cycle of Stormtrooper goodness from Hasbro right now.
While we are nowhere close to the glory days of army building from 10-15 years ago, there is still demand out there in the market. This Stormtrooper, for example, should be constantly refreshed on the pegs at retail; yet it’s not. People have to resort to online buying to find these, which doesn’t even expose children to this greatness when they walk into the toy aisle. Hasbro is missing a huge opportunity here (and with so many other areas, but that’s a different conversation).
That being said, we’re curious as to how many of this Stormtrooper our readers have added to their ranks now. And how many more do you plan to acquire? Let us know, and we’d love to see more pics after the jump!

Mark your calendars if you are anywhere near the St. Louis area, as Red Brick Collectibles will be hosting their second toy show on Sunday, March 15 from 8am-2pm.
It will be at the Kirkwood Community Center which is located at 111 S. Geyer Road, in Kirkwood, MO 63122. Early bird admission is $5.00. Starting at 9am, admission is $2.00. Children 10 and under are free. Military and first responders are also free with ID.
Personal Note – I attended the first one of these in 2019, and thought it was great!
