With San Diego Comic-Con 2014 just over a month away, manufacturers have started to announce their con-exclusive releases for this year’s show. Amongst those exclusives, and revealed exclusively by THR, is JAKKS Pacific’s 31” Star Wars Shadow Storm Trooper.
“This incredible figure was a collaboration of the JAKKS team and their design expertise, as well as the classic creations of Lucasfilm,” John Blaney, Executive Vice President, Marketing JAKKS Pacific, told THR. “The sculpt of the Shadow Trooper remains true to character featuring distinguishing all-black armor and an imperial blaster rifle. We have put a lot of creativity and enthusiasm into this limited-edition line and with only 500 figures made, it is sure to be a fan favorite.”
