I have these two variants and wanted to see what you all thought, has anyone else got any different YPS snowtrooper's?

There are so many 'european versions'




I still need a cape with the holes not slits

Are them 6 new to the guide to James?

nope they're in the 8 un numbered ones in the guide ( there are more depending on how close you look at COOs)

I have 2 that ain't in the guide I think, Including this one. Theres defiantly a lot out there

Some years ago I bought those 2 figures as YPS, but know I don't think they are YPS after I joined the forum. The capes and the weapons are YPS.

Is the the deleted coo YPS or what are they ?

the one in the second picture has the same double COO scar as my YPS snowtrooper.

So you guys think they both are YPS, I am so happy

I get so confused, the coo guide on the forum says it is not YPS. So the guide is not correct ?

Do you guys agree that my 2 are YPS Variants? What would you say they are if not, PBP/Tri-Logo?

A few old RS YPS / Tri Variant Snowtrooper / Billy_boy threads for you!…

So we've all got Tri (/PBP) variants, to call them YPS variants we'd have to find examples that definitely came with the comics.

Rog.

Cool pic Rog!

The yellow arrow on the front says "Mehr Informationen auf der Rückseite"

Is there some more background info to be seen on the backside?

Great picture with the comic.

So we are stuck until we find a comic in a sealed bag with a figure ?

That's some great links there Rog. I keep reading references to this billy boy, did he rip people off or some thing, whats the score there? Is his info in the threads reliable?

Ben's website features a sealed YPS comic & figure

www.kraftdermacht.com

(click archive - advertisement - yps comic - & then the comic)

(A quick search on RS for Billy_boy should find you all you need to know about Bill IMO the majority of his info including that in the threads I listed is fine.)

Here you can find a picture off the backside.

But could it be that there are also differences in the COO aswell?
Think about it, as the figures are found with 2 different weapons, it is possible they have different COO aswell...

I see this example has the regular stormtrooper rifle, whilst others also have the "action force" gun.

Not that this means anything as proof, but i bought my YPS comic togheter with the figure from a german seller, who was't a star wars seller/collector. It came with the "Action Force" gun and had the double scar COO.

Maybe you are right about the difference in the coo.

I saw a seller on Ebay who has 2 YPS on sale they have not the same scar.

Thanks for all the imput fellas. Was it only the 2 coo's that where released with the YPS magazine or where there others?

I never said that the single and double scar COO's where released with the YPS, but that it is an possibility.

Anyway, they figure relaesed with the YPS comic, can be just the same like any regular Tri-Logo Snowtrooper (single or double scar COO, hard torso figure and round holes cape.) But the most notable difference wich makes YPS Trooper unique as a variant is the "black action force" gun.

So i call a loose snowtrooper an YPS snowtrooper when it has the "black action force" gun.

I never said you did mate I'm just trying to clear my confusion about what coo's where released with the Magazine. I thought mine where and knew there was a variant but I didn't realize that all regular Tri-Logo Snowtrooper's where also.

I think we do not know it before we get an YPS comic with the figure inside :sadwalk:

Are the last 8 scar COO considered to be Euro?

I looked at this: http://swspaceclub.com/wbobafett/coo-guide-3-0/esb/stormtrooper-hoth-battle-gear/#a

And they seem to be the same as COO type III and they are not called euro there only type II is.
