It\u2019s been about a year and a half since Super7<\/a> first started the drool flowing with the unveiling of the limited-edition 24\u201d Stormtrooper Super Shogun<\/strong> project @ SDCC 08. Now the release appears imminent with official pictures + news from Super7 about their first collaborative project with Lucasfilm.  To share the big news they\u2019ve created a special subsite \u2013 starwars.super7store.com<\/a>. <\/p>\n

This is one of those projects that speaks to your inner child.  While adult \u2018rules\u2019 restrain many from jumping up and down (at least in public), the little kid inside does so and maybe even does a little dance.  Star Wars + Shogun Warriors (Jumbo Machinder toys) at a whopping 24\u201d?  Yes.  This is a special project, a toy made for pop culture geeks and hard-core toy fans.   <\/p>\n

Thankfully S7 took the time to get all the details just right including the essential \u2018Jumbo\u2019 touches such as wheels on the feet and the Rocket Punch firing fist.  Staying true to the production methods of the 70\u2019s the Stormtrooper Super Shogun features a blow-molded polyethylene body with a vinyl helmet.   The attention to detail extends to the stormtrooper\u2019s blaster \u2026 officially known as  the BlasTech E-11 laser blaster.  The detail is great right down to the folding stock which unfolds beneath the barrel and back to the rear of the gun.  <\/p>\n

So now you\u2019re thinking, ok Star Wars, Jumbo Machinder, 24\u201d\u2026 awesome, but how much?  $300 which seems very reasonable all things considered.<\/p>\n
