#aquatic assault stormtrooper

[oh-no-eu-didnt]

Aquatic assault stormtroopers were a specialized type of Imperial stormtrooper, specifically trained and equipped for operations in aquatic environments. Seatroopers armor was lightweight and flexible, based on scout trooper armor. It was able to withstand immense pressure and allow quick movement. In addition to a propulsion unit to assist with movement, seatroopers carried hybrid blaster rifle spearguns, in case conditions made blaster fire ineffective.

Imperial Evo Trooper. This guy reminds me of the specialized, so called Aquatic Assault Trooper from “The Battle for the Golden Sun”, an adventure module from the vintage Star Wars Roleplaying Game. I am pretty sure the Evo Trooper was inspired by that, which of course nourish my perception of how West End Games had such a remarkable influence on the Expanded Universe and the creation of the Star Wars world for decades to come. The figure is solid and feels like it weighs more than the average figure of the same size. It’s well articulated and comes with two blasters and a heavy blaster rifle (the same as the Sandtrooper has). The backpack is removable and appears like a lightweight version of the one that Sandtroopers are carrying around. It’s a bit unfortunate that the figure has no holsters for the two blasters but that’s only a minor concern as the design of the figure is just stunning. #starwars #actionfigures #evotrooper #imperialevotrooper #stormtrooper #theanniversarycollection #375inch https://www.instagram.com/p/CIdvoNLAW74/?igshid=hjxotj4xmvgs

A Lot of STAR WARS Toys Were Revealed at Toy Fair 2020

At Toy Fair 2020, Hasbro revealed an amazing new toy/collectible for Star Wars fans.

Sea monster and Ahch-to nuns in Journey to The Last Jedi ‘Look and Find’ book:

On the The Last Jedi front you get a good look at the Ahch-To nuns, the Porgs, and the Sea Monster (which sort of looks like an aquatic sea monster version of an Eopie). One of the two page spreads from The Last Jedi depicts Ahch-To with Rey offering her saber to Luke but the island is covered in Porgs for this depiction (just as the other spreads are covered with Stormtroopers and TIE Fighters when in the film it was very evenly spread out). It says that Rey is on Ahch-To to convince Luke Skywalker to join the Resistance.

The second The Last Jedi spread is about Poe Dameron. Poe is attacking the First Order’s assault fleet so he can make way for the Resistance Heavy Bomber squadron led by “ace pilot Paige.” The spread shows BB-8 and Poe flying their black X-wing into a space fight full of Resistance X-wings with blue and red A-wings and Resistance heavy bombers, while shooting at TIE Fighters and Star Destroyers. Like the A-wings, some heavy bombers have red trim and other’s blue trim on the top of the ship.

For those of you poo-pooing the monster, keep in mind that every Star Wars movie, except one, has had a scene with a monster :P
