Sideshow Collectibles has brought Star Wars merchandise collectors yet another great figure and amazingly detailed accessory. The  Scout Trooper and Speeder Bike Sixth Scale Figure by Sideshow Collectibles!  There have been so many amazing photographs of these from the crew at Sideshow as well all the fans at SDCC, we decided to bring the Scout out in the wild and take some unique photographs.  You can also see our first in hand look from SDCC at this link , which gives you a great look at the bike and the figure as well as how to easily dissemble the speeder.

The Scout Trooper figure is just amazing.  It’s everything fans have been waiting for. You get all you need for multiple display options. He comes with the same fully articulated Prometheus body that we have seen on previous figures.  We were able to pose him in various position both with and without the base and he held them well! In addition to the armor you get the belt with detonator, flightsuit, right and left standing boot tops and  right and left action boot tops and the hold out blaster pistol.

You have several display options for the figure.  He stands on his own just fine, you can stand him on the basic black base, or accessorize with various forest add on’s and of course, the speeder bike.

The Speeder Bike has an great weathered and sleek design with a repulsorlift engine, power cell,  blaster cannon and great maneuverability for static or actions display ability.

It features articulated foot pedals, engine flaps, and steering vanes so  you can customize it the way you want.  Sideshow did the collector a “solid” and made this great video (see below) on how to assemble this with ease!

The bike is mounted to produce that “hover effect” and not a single detail has been missed, right down to the fabric and straps on the back. Both are great as stand alone items and we know several collectors who plan to display these alone, and as a pair. You need to be take your time when you assemble the bike and the video above is very useless to make sure you do it right the first time.
