    How can you have photos of a rocket pack stormtrooper and NOT have photos of the back of the figure, where I assume the rockets are?

    General question on these GameStop exclusives...how hard are they to find in stores once they come out? Is pre-ordering a must, are they scarce? I hate getting hit with a shipping charge for one figure at a time.

    In my experience it varies wildly from figure to figure and store to store. The Black Series exclusives in particular seem to be randomly thrown about. I found the Inferno Squad figure easily at both of my stores, but then Wolffe only ever showed up at one store while Fox only showed up at the other, then the jumptrooper was very easy to find at both, but then Jedi Revan never showed up at either and then I just haven't been checking in since the pandemic hit hard. Honestly I'd say just go online through Gamestop's website if you really want it.

    hhhhhhhhhWHY are they still using the old Stormtrooper body???? I could understand for the Shadow Stormtrooper or the Stormtrooper Commander cuz those were coming out at the same time as the first use of the mold, but now? Come on.

    Because the old body has the hole in its back for the jump-pack while the new body does not. Also the previous jumptrooper had the unique shoulder pieces so it was again easier to reuse the old than to adapt the new.

    First Question: what En Sabah Nerd said, it varies depending on the item and depending on the stores.

    As for shipping, even if I only want 1 item, I order 2. Free shipping over $35, and when you get it, you have 30 days to return the extra one. I have several Gamestops nearby that I go to every once in a while anyway, if that's true for you too that's one way to get around paying for shipping for 1 item. Not to mention if you're a MIB collector, this gives you a pick on which one to keep.

    I am glad to see this reissued, I regret not picking one of the originals up, especially since I saw them on clearance at a few stores. I think the figure looks better with the orange details on the first release, it made the figure pop more.
