Today, we are reviewing the First Order Stormtrooper Sixth Scale Figure by Hot Toys. We will start off with the specs via Sideshow Collectibles who distributes the figure and was also kind enough to provide this review sample to us.

The highly-accurate collectible figure is specially crafted based on the image of the First Order Stormtrooper in Star Wars: The Force Awakens and features the brand new designed Stormtrooper armor and helmet, a highly detailed blaster rifle and pistol, and a specially designed hexagonal figure stand with the First Order’s emblem!” – SSC

The First Order Stormtrooper by Hot Toys is THE First Order Stormtrooper to own. Simply put, it is amazing and stunning. Hot Toys has always been known to put out amazing products, I have been a collector and fan since they did the Rocky figures and own over 200 of them, and this is already one of my favorites.
The artwork inside the package deserves to be a print all on it’s own, it is gorgeous! The rest of the package is your standard black and white mandated look and the figure is placed inside with a “double clamshell” and is easy to remove. It’s a solid figure and is very easy to pose. It comes with the stand, but with the articulation in the feet, he is very easy to pose.
The armor is crisp, clean and accurate. The blaster rifle and the pistol both connect magnetically to the side of the leg, which is a very cool feature. The other hands are a nice touch so you can post him in a multitude of positions. Hot Toys also has several other Stormtroopers with different accessories (like the First Order Stormtrooper (Jakku Exclusive), First Order Heavy Gunner Stormtrooper, Squad Leader and Stormtrooper Officer as well as the Riot Control Stormtrooper who comes bundled with Finn!).
Every angle of this figure looks like it jumped off the screen, right down to the details on the weapons. Hot Toys are not cheap, but you do get what you pay for, if you don’t own any yet, this would a great one to start out with. I promise you won’t be disappointed. You can still secure one of these today for $204.99 at this link. Check out the entire gallery of all the images below!
