Title: Legacy Collection EU wave Spacetrooper BD58
Post by: Clonehead on May 11, 2010, 03:37:31 AM
Got this one on ebay for a price somewhat higher than it can be found on the shelf, when it can be found, that is.

Originating in a Dark Horse comic, Spacetroopers are high ranking Imperial Commandos who wear powersuit armor designed for space combat. These Zero-G Assault Troopers are considered "walking Tanks" because of the extensive weaponry built into their suits.

This figure features a removable jetpack, removable shoulder pads and full articulation. The sculpt is magnificent and the backpack mounts with slots instead of the more standard peg. Upon removing the sculpted head, i found a bigger ball-mount about the size of the standard stormtrooper.

It is disappointing that Hasbro seen fit to only release this wave at TRU stores as it is a bugger to find any if you are not an ebay shopper

This figure comes packed with the left leg of the BG-J38 BAD figure.

this guy kind of reminded me of the saga legends dark trooper so I took a shot of them together. After that, I thought it might be fun to take some head swap shots.

sweet... although I'm disapointed in the figure a little after seeing your shots.  I was hoping for more.

so this wave is only at tru?  I was recently at a tru and didn't see this figure or ANY new figs, what other figures are in this wave?

Yes it's sad when you can't find the toys you are looking for, I was luck to find F.U. Shaak Ti, K'Kruhk, And Another C.W. Bly.
To. S.F. Here are the other figures in the wave
Jaina Solo-eu
Jacen Solo-eu
K'kruhk
Shaak Ti-tfu
Space trooper-eu
Dark trooper ( phase 1) -eu
it's wave 13, I hate that I have to go to tru to hunt them down. I saw the space trooper but passed on it, I'm still looking for another Shaak Ti and jaina and her brother Jace. I hope in time we get Ben Skywalker.

Great pics Clint, I'm glade ya got one.

Nice review but I'm gunna pass... Reason one being that the sculpting looks really strange as well as no additional weapons and reason two being I won't get the chance anyways! lol
