My most recent addition to my collection is the Walmart exclusive, The Vintage Collection Stormtrooper (Mimban) from Solo: A Star Wars Story. Our Walmart traditionally doesn’t get many of the exclusives right after they are released, but now that I have it in hand, I would say that it was well worth the wait!
These Stormtroopers were stationed on the war-ravaged, swamp planet of Mimban. One of the things that I really like about this figure is that it has the weathered effects of battle and debris of the gritty, swampy, muddy terrain of Mimban all caked on its stark white armor. It just really makes the figure stand out so well. The figure comes with an attached cloth cape as featured in the film, a weathered blaster rifle (again these effects really just give the accessories so much oomph), and a sniper rile. Even though the helmets in the movie had the reinforced armor plating around the forehead, On the figure itself it just looks a little odd, but I could just be nitpicking.
Overall, I'm happy with adding the Stormtrooper to my Vintage Collection line. I see a lot of army builder collectors picking these up for their own Mimban diorama, as well as customizers to make battle worn Stormtroopers of their own. The Vintage Collection Mimban Stromtrooper is available now at your local Walmart.
