Since Sideshow Collectibles' announcement that they will be releasing the Star Wars Blackhole Stormtrooper or Shadow Stormtrooper, official pictures have now been released of these specialized Imperial stormtroopers, an elite squadron within the Imperial stormtroopers who were assigned an experimental cloaking armor, allowing them to disappear in virtually any environment.
Their most distinguishing feature was their all-black armor—a stark contrast to the typical white armor common to other stormtroopers. This unique black armor provided some stealth benefits, which resulted from the stygian-triprismatic polymer material used in the production of the armor. Shadow stormtroopers also carried cloaking devices that rendered them invisible for a short period of time.
So Sideshow takes their existing 12-inch Imperial Stormtrooper mold, sprays it with black matte paint and re-packages it as a 1:6 Blackhole Stormtrooper. Me thinks they should charge us less for these as they already have the designs and molds
