I think if we hadn’t gotten an update since the 2007 25th verison most of us would have probably swooned over the new one. For me, it’s falls short of the existing 30th trooper. That’s just personal preference. While there were some small improvements one could have made to that 30th mold for vintage accuracy, I’d rather Hasbro did for the Trooper what they did for Destro. Take that winning sculpt and improve it with just a few touches.

i thought zaps pics were most accurate to daytime window lighting for reference.
Your photos are as fantastic as your custom work man. I wouldn’t change a thing.
