Wave 7 of Star Wars Black Series is finally here and today we have the second new figure in the wave – Han Solo in Stormtrooper Disguise. He comes packed with Bossk and two repacks, Tie-Pilot and Chewbacca. The figure is an iconic look from the first movie, and if you don’t need a second Han Solo on your shelf then pop that helmet on and BOOM, another Stormtrooper for the ranks. And who doesn’t need more Stormtroopers. We’ve done up a over 20 shots of the Hantrooper in action, check him out after the break courtesy of site sponsor Entertainment Earth!

Star Wars Black Series Han Solo in Stormtrooper Disguise
Overall
Overall, it’s about the same as your average Black Series Stormtrooper. The helmet is a bit different, proportions are slightly off from the “full head” version. Not really bad, just different. At a distance though, you won’t be able to tell. He can tuck into a Stormtrooper line-up no problem. The bonus is that when you remove that helmet, you do have a pretty solid Han Solo face sculpt. All of these are artistic representations and this is slightly beefier than the first. Another difference with the original Trooper is the neck wrap seen in the movie, a great touch to further differentiate the two. Check out some key shots and then the full gallery after that, you can pick up yours at Entertainment Earth if you still need him!
Little late, but better than never
First up, Bossk:

I had no idea the he sports a movable jaw, that is a real nice surprise. and the paint works looks super crisp too.
I can't wait to get mine.
Yeah, that was cool. As I said, not really a big Bossk fan, but as a figure, it's really well done.
My Bossk (as I mentioned on "look what I just got" thread) is improperly assembled. The stick in his torso joint is either too long or wasn't put together right so he stands a couple of centimeters higher than he should. It doesn't bother me and it's actually kind of neat that mine is taller since in almost anything but the movie Bossk is depicted as being closer to Vader's height. Even with the defect I'd still say Bossk is one of the best Black Series figures so far just as a toy. It helps that I've always liked Bossk second only to Boba as a bounty hunter.
best. picture. ever.
And, Hantrooper is live.
I definitely would have picked up Han-trooper if I didn't already have a normal Stormtrooper or if I were the army building type.
Ditto. I snagged the last Stormtrooper from the local Target before it closed its doors forever. I agree: this Han looks better than regular Han.
Anecdotally, Black Series boxes seem to be a magnet for 'corner crush.' It doesn't matter if I purchase in-store or online: at least one corner will be crushed. I guess shipments get bashed bumped around quite a lot in transit. I look forward to the day when I purchase a figure and find the packaging undamaged.

And another Han has dropped. But you know what, I don't care. All have been solid. This is prob my fave yet.

Looks good. Better than I hoped. I especially like the inclusion of the binoculars.
Nice photos too! Adding ProtoFett was a nice touch.
I really want them to make a Snowtrooper. Proto-Fett looks like he's in a ballet with Chewie in the one pic.
Ballet with Chewie. Lol. I see it. Great pics man. Proto Fett fits perfectly.
Is there missing articulation in the wrists on Han? I've heard complaints about missing articulation and size. I'll be picking up both sets the first time they go on sale or I get a coupon. They look good to me.

Wrong color! The coat is BROWN!
Hoping they would think about issuing proper vehicles for this line, X-Wing fighters etc ...
