The hand-painted version of the Stormurai Trooper is shown below:


Robert asked Lewis a coupla question with regards to Stormurai (thanks, Rob!)

ROB LOSITO: Where did the vision drawing come from and who sculpted it?

LEWIS OJEDA: I saw a picture of a dude at SDCC and he had a suit made to look that way I thought it was cool so when it came time to do something I sketched up my version and sculpted it not long after .

ROB LOSITO: I originally saw something that said edition 50 pieces. Is that true or is this version only 10?

LEWIS OJEDA: Yeah , I spoke too soon there were gonna be 50 but I ran into production problems and had to lessen the run to ten. I'm gonna have glow in the dark version by June hopefully in a different pose. The glow in the dark ones are gonna be a smaller scale and that will be a bigger run. Hopefully it all works out.
