Gentle Giant continues to reproduce characters from The Empire Strikes Back's classic "Battle of Hoth" scene with the Imperial Snowtrooper (Hoth Battle Gear), one of my favorite 3 3/4" action figures growing up as kid. Following the release of Han Solo (Hoth Gear) in the first quarter of next year (see our story HERE (https://www.figures.com/forums/news/32622-new-kenner-star-wars-jumbo-figure.html)), the Snowtrooper ships in Q2 2014 priced at $85. This faithful 12-inch recreation of the Kenner original comes complete with giant blaster rifle and vinyl skirt.
With a commitment to keep in line with the vintage Kenner experience, Gentle Giant has packaged this figure with an Empire Strikes Back-inspired backer card featuring original photos and artwork. Designed with the collector in mind, the figure comes in a resealable plastic outer clam shell to help protect and display this limited edition figure.
