Tempting but I just can't get into TFA figures. The design is starting to win me over though. The duck part I can't unsee now that it's been pointed out but I still like them.

I am trying to fight this line. I said I was only going to get DC and Marvel stuff. Star Wars opens a dangerous door. But I feel the Force weakening my resolve!

Bend them all at least 90 degrees at the elbows and leave them like that.
An issue doesn't have to be present on 100% of every piece off the assembly line, but there's no denying that some of HT's materials problems are extremely widespread. This extends to adhesives too.
And I don't think HT has necessarily used any genuine "rubber" on any product - it's just whatever they have used on various products should probably not have been used in those circumstances. I have soft rubber-like toys made from all manner of polymers, including RC car/buggy tires that are 30 to 40+ years old without issues.

They won't.
On singles you can use one coupon code each and they might possibly have $10 flat rate shipping. The two-pack will be 2x the single price and you'll only be able to use one coupon - also don't be surprised to see $23-25+ shipping.

Re: Hot Toys First Order Stormtroopers (Regular & Heavy Gunner) set
Do you have the HT Watchmen Comedian figure? I have many HT figure with rubber, and they are all holding up, (Ed209 V1, RockyIV, all the Batmans,) but the Comedian just melted. All my figures are handled the same and kept in same location. I agree that not everyone will have an issue, but believe it is very much a concern and should not be dismissed so lightly. Plus pose ability seem to suffer to.

So is everyone going to want a First Order fabric banner to hang with their troopers? Three panels or single panel?

Damn, this looks fantastic! I'm a bit concerned about the rubber though, hopefully it's not the same as the ED-209 stuff...

Man, I really liked the Duck Tails cartoon. Glad to see HT is making new variations of Gizmoduck...
Seriously though, they look decent. Not sure I'll buy any of the new stuff yet. OT is where my heart lies.

I don't think I've seen anyone comparing the new trooper to ducks.
In the past five seconds.

This is what you get when you combine the new Stormie with that soccer ball droid. They call it synergy.
