Year Released
2018, coinciding with the theatrical release of the anthology film 'Solo: A Star Wars Story', which expanded the gritty, ground-level military lore of the Galactic Empire.
Rarity
Rare, because it was exclusive to a single, moderately priced retail set that had a relatively short shelf life, making it a sought-after troop builder.
Head
Standard black head piece featuring a simple white-printed expression hidden underneath the helmet, standard for faceless army builders of this era.
Torso
White torso with highly detailed dark green armor plating, grey shading, and a black diagonal chest strap/bandolier, paired with white arms and black hands.
Legs
White dual-molded legs with dark green printed hip and knee armor panels matching the torso design, providing a cohesive armored ground-trooper aesthetic.
Accessories
Typically includes a standard Imperial blaster rifle (not pictured in this specific image), though the minifigure itself relies on its heavily printed body parts rather than extra cloth elements.
Color Scheme
Primary white and black with dark green accent colors and grey shading, representing the muddy, specialized field uniforms used on terrestrial frontlines.
Printing Details
Exceptional pad printing quality featuring intricate dual-molded leg alignment, precise chest strap gradients, and crisp armor lining characteristic of modern LEGO Star Wars figures.
Variants
Unique to this specific design within the Solo sub-theme, though related to standard Stormtroopers and range troopers from the same era.
Condition Notes
Prone to minor torso scratching, dust accumulation in the recessed leg grooves, and potential fading of the green armor print if exposed to direct sunlight.
Estimated Value
Approximately $15 to $25 USD for a used complete figure in good condition, and up to $35 USD for brand new or sealed-in-set equivalents.
Price (New)
Originally available in a set retailing for around $29.99 USD, giving a modest price-per-minifigure ratio for its single inclusion.
