[QUOTE="Mr-shifter, post: 495453, member: 4949"] The yps snowtrooper is a hard torso snowtrooper that is less common but still abundantly available as it was packaged on trilogo cards. It has a slightly different cape as well. Round holes instead of slits and a scar coo. Dave Tree has been selling the weapon packs for years for a fiver. A number have been opened for the sa80. This figure and weapon combo can only be truly called a yps snowtrooper if it is either still in the unopened comic bag, or comes from a childhood collection that contains a snowtrooper and weapon that could only have come from the comic. Anything else is no more than a Frankenstein figure with an action force weapon and a loose tri snowtrooper. The whole yps thing is a myth. Some of the comics came with the snowtrooper and the correct weapon. The problem is the ignorance of some of the modern “must have it” collector who does no research into what they are buying, but wants Facebook likes and validation. It is the same problem that has caused solid black blasters, hollow tube tuskens, red bar r5s, vcjs, etc etc to skyrocket in price. [/QUOTE]
