Thanks for the review Guy. This is a cracking piece done by a top sculptor. Had a look in the box at one of theses at Euro Militaire, excellent sculpt and quality casting that we now come to expect from Stormtroopers. A piece defiantly worth painting for all enthusiasts of this era of history.
Cheers

Dear friends,
When you purchased this excellent kit look for the detailed Ernesto Reyes 8 page SBS article in Scale Model Handbook 5, Figure Modelling 5. It will help a lot.
