First Order Stormtrooper

"With a BrickScore of 50.3 and a Skip It verdict, the First Order Stormtrooper polybag is best treated as a minor bonus for completists rather than a sought-after collectible, as its near-identical overlap with an existing battle pack figure undercuts whatever exclusivity its promotional origin implies."

Expert reviewers are clearly split on this May the Fourth 2016 promotional polybag, with JANG scoring it 65 and Brickset scoring it 35, producing a BrickScore of 50.3 and a Skip It tier verdict. The core disagreement is one of framing: JANG treated it generously as a free promotional giveaway with an exclusive print variant, while Brickset judged it on its merits as a minifigure offer and found it nearly identical to the Heavy Assault Trooper already available in the 75132 Battle Pack. Both agree the minifigure printing differences are minimal and the character selection was a missed opportunity. Owner ratings of 4.43 out of 5 across only 23 reviews reflect a thin sample skewed toward variant collectors who specifically sought it out.

Where they split: Reviewers diverged significantly in tone and score (65 vs. 35). JANG's more generous reading reflects the giveaway context and exclusive print angle; Brickset evaluated it as a minifigure offering in its own right and found it underwhelming compared to past May the Fourth offerings. The Skip It tier reflects this split and the overall low ceiling of the set.
