New From Hot Toys: Return of the Jedi’s Scout Trooper and Speeder Bike

For only $505, you can relive the exciting moments when Imperial scout troopers slammed head-on into the giant trees of the Forest Moon of Endor. In addition, hot Toys is producing a highly detailed set of both the scout and the 74-Z speeder bike, as seen in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi.

The figure and speeder bike are 1/6th scale and come with an Endor-themed base. Sideshow is currently taking pre-orders for the set, which is scheduled to come out between July and September 2022. The trooper can be purchased separately for $230.

The highly accurate Scout Trooper collectible figure is skillfully crafted based on the character’s appearance during the thrilling sequences from Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. It features a newly developed helmet and armor with weathering effects, a finely tailored fabric bodysuit, a blaster pistol, a blaster rifle, and a themed display stand!

The Speeder Bike is crafted with astonishing craftsmanship showcasing the mechanical details of the vehicle and measures approximately 50cm in length. It features great paint applications, articulated foot pedals, steering vane, and engine flaps, a cargo bag at the back of the machine, and a themed diorama base!

I highly recommend Hot Toys’ figures. Over the years, I’ve owned quite a few, and they typically retain and increase in value. Just try to buy a 1989 Joker right now. He’s super expensive. These collectibles are hand-painted, and no words can express just how detailed these things are. That’s true artistry!
