• This Black Series Imperial Patrol Trooper action figure was released in the United States in November 2018
• The figure came with a small Imperial blaster which can be placed into a holster on the right side of the hip (this works well)
• This blaster fits well into the right hand, but it doesn't fit into the left
• The right hand is interesting because it has a gap between the index and middle finger (instead of having the index finger stand out), this way there are two fingers which can be placed onto the trigger
• There is no head underneath the helmet and there are no removable parts on the armor
• The baton on the belt is removable and it fits well into both hands (thanks to J.B. reader Lee Malcolmson for bringing this to our attention)
• We've had trouble with the Imperial Patrol Trooper's left elbow, it was stuck and we weren't able to bend it
• All the joints in the arms were very loose on the Imperial Patrol Trooper reviewed here
• The sculpt looks nice and the paint application was applied cleanly
• The figure has no balancing problems
• In 15 years of archiving and reviewing Star Wars figures (and collecting SW figures actively for 23 years since 1995), this was the second time where we've come across a figure which was defect, the first one was the Ralph McQuarrie Stormtrooper from 2004

As the Empire reinforces its hold on worlds across the galaxy, local defense forces are being supplemented - and eventually completelly replaced - with Imperial Stormtroopers. To cover distances across sprawling settlements and cities, Patrol Stormtroopers police the streets and alleys aboard swift interceptor speeder bikes.
