>>5889499>>5889494to be fair, the sandtrooper is sculpted well, but it relies on your own skill to make it look good and even then, it's only as good as the Hasbro version, or not you're just going to stick on stickers to it.
So 23 dollars for a flat looking stickered kit or 20 dollars for an already made figure that looks good out of the box.
Arguably, you can weather the kit, but you can do the same shit to the Hasbro figure too.
>>5889505Those are humans wearing armor and their shoulders rise up and down like humans do when walking around, breathing, or just standing. Whereas the figure is forever static at shrugging. It's a tense look that looks stupid.
Might as well make the case about a random stormtrooper having his shin guards on wrong (he's in one of the death star scenes) and how Hasbro's poor QC sometimes leads to the calf being put on the wrong side. Just as canon, but still goofy as shit.
