Blue-Black Stormtrooper Hikari?

Postby misterjstewart » Fri Jul 17, 2015 8:37 pm

Hey all, I was just in Hot Topic picking up an order and there was a Hikari Stormtrooper on the counter that I haven't seen before. He was kinda Bluish-Black antique-y looking. Kinda like the SDCC Matte-black Darth Vader but blue instead of copper. Anyone seen this one yet? I'm not a Star Wars collector but this looked pretty sexy. Shoulda taken a picture...

I had no Hot Cash or I would have bought him.

That's probably it. It looks so good in person.

Damn I was just at a hot topic and didn't see any. Probably would have bought one without hesitation.

I might go back tomorrow and buy it. Can I use like 3 $15 Hot cash on the same purchase?

That looks great! I hope this one makes it online to use a hotcash code since I used up all my physical hotcash.

Not the shadowtrooper, it's called Cerulean Trooper I believe. And it does look awesome in person apparently!

I saw this one when I was there Saturday and was wondering the same. It's a very cool variant. If they still have these in stock by the next Hot Cash event I might have to snag one :)

Confirmed that it is "Cerulean Storm Trooper". Just picked one up at hot topic. It is amazing in person and is now my new favorite Hikari piece. Here is #944.

Very cool, Congrats!

I've been back twice now to check if it's still there but I just can't bring myself to pay $80 for him :(

I just picked up this guy today. Saw 6 of them at the very top shelf near the ceiling. It is indeed 79.99, but I had a 15% off in their system that I used.

And if you have the chance, compare a few before buying. On the first one, one of the arms had a much thicker black highlight on it than the rest of the body, making it look odd.

You can stack your coupons for it. I think they have a $10 off $40 going on this week. I used three hot cash to pick it up last week before the hot cash expired.
