ANOVOS issues (ANOVOS ONLY discussion)

Did you think I meant Death Trooper maybe?

I would think Shadow trooper and regular Stormtroopers would have very similar manufacturing methods considering the only difference is the color of the plastic.

That, combined with the fact the Shadow Troopers were listed after the Regular Classic Stormies is what has me confused.

Could be as simple as they need material A for the white trooper and B for the black trooper and B is much harder to acquire for some reason (not in stock, whatever). Not to mention shops look at the white one as one order and the black as another. It's not as if they have their own fab shop that has nothing to do between runs.

Don't know whether to laugh or cry. Ordered the Premiere Officer hat a full year ago hoping to have it for the Rogue One premiere. [emoji15]

ETA has been Q4 2016 forever.

Could also be as simple as The Mouse wanted Rogue One items fastracked to strike while iron was hot because new movie is comng out.
Company is just taking advantage of the immediate Hype for quick sale. It's a standalone movie, who knows how long the good feelings will last.
While I can appreciate/understand the business decision, I'm hoping the my OT items get a swift kick going forward.
I want this Company to actually succeed and continue. They do good work.

I want the Death Trooper helmet but the bonus check isnt here until the 18th... I'm pretty sure the 'limited quantities' will be long sold out by then, bleh.

Surprised to see the standalone Shadow Trooper helmets in stock before the classic Stormtrooper helmets... are the standalone classic TK helmets still on track for delivery before the end of the year?

Did you order one yet? I ordered my Stormie in late February of this year and it showed up in early October.

I ordered a helmet kit when they first went up for pre-order.

They are awaiting the hats which are on the water is what I was told

I don't think either helmet kit have been shipped yet. It looks like they are both scheduled for Q1 2017.

It seems odd that the helmet kits are so much later than completed helmets. Maybe there wasn't enough capacity to accommodate making enough for completed helmets and kits at the same time.

For those who have might not see this yet, regarding how much its going to be

Also I could have sworn that anovos helmet pages from FA stated that they were scanned from screen used helmets, now that particular sentence is gone and simply says that its been "reproduced" based on screen used items.

Is this the same thing or clever word play?

 

[cboath]

Is there a special link for the death trooper today or can you get there from the main page?

I forwarded the email to my office and the !@#$^ing spam filter ate it.

 

[Cry-Lo Ren]

Same here...I'm hoping they'll be in stock soon, but I don't have much hope for that.

On the bright side, WampaWear's version is looking like a serious contender:

 

[Doh2]

I don't get why the Death Trooper helmet is more expensive than the Vader; Vader looks a LOT more complicated to put together.

Anyway, too rich for my blood.

 

[Nocternus]

That wampa hat does not look conical enough plus black caps are easy it's matching the green that people have problems with

 

[Cry-Lo Ren]

Right!? I think I was more shocked to see the price tag on phasma. That must be a really expensive paint job as its just a chrome-ish colored stormtrooper.
