I’m not sleeping on this preorder. The last PurgeTrooper was the hardest to obtain 6” figure ever.

I must have snoozed on this one.  Just got my preorder in this morning.

I got mine in the mail the other day and cracked it open.

I get it that Hasbro and their resellers are just cashing in on some of these repaints, but one thing that bugs me about the shortcuts on this one is that they created a really thick electrostaff but didn't change the trooper's hands.  They're still molded for gun grips.  Its next to impossible to get the staff in his hands without getting a hairdryer out and softening his hands.

The 6" figures are usually nearly perfect when it comes to accessories, hand grips, etc., but they missed on this one.
