Every collection has a stormtrooper, (Imperial) Stormtrooper 1978 SW ANH

Originally named Stormtrooper , the name on the card changed to Imperial Stormtrooper for figures released on The Power of the Force card backs.


The head and torso was one mold so the trooper had to move his whole body to look in different directions.

Though all vintage figures have minor variations, the only major variation is the hard to come by Japanese Takara version, which, though in a similar stance, is an entirely different sculpt. It is easiest to spot by looking at the head (See blue image above). Also of interest with the Takara version, is the bolt on the figure's back, see below, not unlike the See-Threepio (C-3PO) or Death Star Droid figures.
