Yes his cards are looking great.But with 19$ per card(with no bubble) its not a cheap thing to change all the figures.I would do this for a really special figure like Vader or Boba.And only for Originalfigures.
But for the fakes from Hasbro I prefer removing the stickers.I´m not a figure collector..these figures are only decoration for my 80´s corner of my office.

The retro sticker never bothered me. I remember the original figures often times had offer stickers, price tags, handling wear from kids leafing through the pegs for their favorite characters. I display these alongside my vintage ones, they’re fun.

When this is ok for you I have no problem with that.For me this big round stickers are ruining the complete retrolook of the card.

I understand and hope you find an efficient and effective solution to removing the remaining stickers in your retro collection. Prost.

Shouldn't they have the character name cut out? (proof of purchase)... all my old cards do

This one is pretty cool, since Kenner never did a Sandtrooper back in the day. It's also interesting that they went with the more obscure blaster, rather than the Lewis gun.

The 48th Ronin I agree, cool figure and choice of weapon. I like the ammo pouch too, gives it more differentiation to the plain stormtrooper. No backpack though, bummer.

Ohhhh, man - I didn't even notice that. That IS a bummer.

I take it back, I think I can see a backpack in the press photo I just uploaded.

Yeah... maybe? Looks like it might be undersized?
