Rarity
Uncommon; while available in several sets, it is no longer in production and requires specific sets to mass-produce for army building.
Head
Standard flesh-tone head (Jace Malcom or standard clone/soldier face) obscured by a unique First Order Flametrooper helmet mold with a narrow horizontal visor slit and respiratory filtration tubes.
Torso
White torso with First Order Flametrooper armor printing featuring a specialized chest plate and thermal venting; back printing includes connection points for the fuel tank apparatus.
Legs
White legs with black and light gray printing detail representing knee pads, utility pouches, and specialized thermal-resistant leg armor plates.
Accessories
Missing in image. Originally supplied with a DTO-L205 chemical flamethrower (built from a black nozzle and handle) connected by a black hose to a backpack fuel tank unit.
Color Scheme
High-contrast White and Black with light gray accents for armor depth and mechanical details.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on torso (front/back) and legs (front). The helmet features precise black printing for the visor and gray for the filters.
Variants
Standard sw0665 version. A later version (sw0863) exists with slightly updated torso/leg printing included in later Force Awakens sets.
Condition Notes
Prone to yellowing if exposed to UV; helmet filters are prone to paint rub; check for arm cracks at the torso sockets and stress marks on the leg pegs.

Character Background

Design Notes
Introduced the unique Flametrooper helmet mold which differs significantly from the standard FO Stormtrooper helmet, capturing the specialized 'toed' respirator look.
Similar Minifigures
First Order Stormtrooper (sw0667), First Order Snowtrooper (sw0657), and Imperial Incinerator Trooper (sw1096).
Collectibility
Moderate; popular for army building and essential for fans of The Force Awakens sequel trilogy.
History
Launched in the initial 2015 Force Awakens wave; remained a staple specialist trooper through the 2017 sub-theme waves.
Interesting Facts
This minifigure features one of the few helmet designs that actually restricts the minifigure's neck rotation due to the flared lower respirator design.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed in a diorama of the Jakku village raid (Tuanul) or as part of a First Order troop formation in a display case.
Modification Potential
Excellent for custom flame effects using orange translucent power-blast pieces or for creating specialized heavy-weapons squads.
Overall Assessment
A solid, screen-accurate representation of a sequel-era specialist. While missing its fuel tank and weapon here, its unique torso and helmet prints remain highly desirable for collectors.
