Welcome guys & thanks for making me feel it was worthwhile, though I still feel a petition is the way to go.

EDIT - The peg holes in the feet are slightly larger & IMO do not fit the standard pro tech stands to well, also the underarm flat area is similar/possibly identical to Tri-Logo & Ledy stormtroopers, the good news is hta Tri & Ledy's are both no Coo

What's with the LFL copyright on the photo or is it printed on the card?
You can't tell us Poon has got a license?

unsure

The card uses artwork of the Star wars Battlefront game.



Is this the newest product of Mark Poon?

Fully licensed?

EDIT: Mark has always claimed these troopers are NOT his. ( & I've always said this was not a 1 man production)
[QUOTE=markpoon]hello aussiejames, I don't intend to post at RS but I want everyone to know that:

I did not produce these white & black Stormtroopers
I got them from a dealer in Hong Kong
I've returned all the white Stormtroopers
I've stopped selling the white Stormtroopers
I'm not the one selling the bootleg 2-packs on eBay, the seller is from China!!![/QUOTE]

This makes me so sad. I'm glad frunkstar took those great pics. It just seems like this will just get worse with time. A lot to think about

well I'll be hanging set weights off the limbs & measuring deflection/bend Suspect & double checking (unless someone else has any better ideas) I'm putting money on the fact there is no way AFA will pick these up as repros let alone anyone else accurately 100% of the time.


It will be interesting to see if the AFA could catch it. scratch I really hope so nailbiting

This two pack is now availabe on eBay UK. The name of the company selling it is different to the one James posted, but still based in China. Although the seller won't post to Hong Kong or China. Mmm!

Here is a photo of the back of the card.
