There's a character in the new Star Wars movie. It's a girl. And a Stormtrooper. A captain, in fact. With shiny metallic armor and a cape.

I've seen no evidence that they plan to make this figure aside from pics online that I'm beginning to suspect are customs.

Seriously. Girl Stormtrooper. Shiny Stormtrooper. Stormtrooper with cape. Stormtrooper officer. How the fuck do you not come up with "this is going to be a hotter character than Darth Revan Jr or Wilson the Volleyball Droid"?

Oh, they know people want it therefore they either a) won't or b) will and short pack it. It's the Boba Fett effect. If fans/collectors want it then make only a few...

Which is just stupid. No one knows who any of these characters are; the really fucking cool ones should be the first ones out, not Edgar Allan X-Wing Pilot.

And I know they make her in other scales, or supposedly do, at any rate. Silver Stormtrooper. With a cape. She certainly visually out-cools anyone else we've seen in the movie except maybe Kylo Ren or BB-8, depending on one's tastes.

Diff'rent Strokes I guess - this Willis hates Captain Phasma & sees her as the total embodiment of every jizzload fired off by every nerd over the silver Darth Vader, Stormtrooper & Boba Fett figures mixed with the jizz of all the clone fantards.

For a second there I thought you were suggesting Diff'rent Strokes figures. I know a certain former character here that would have loved the bike shop playset.

There's a matte silver looking 3.75" figure as well, I'm sure she'll get the full chromed out black series SA treatment eventually. Lord knows they made enough different Grievouses.

I'm just sayin' that she's definitely tailor-made for figures.
