When Solo: A Star Wars Story was \"\"<\/a>released we were introduced to a young Han and another side of the Star Wars universe. We were also introduced to new characters and some characters that were just variations on the original, such as Stormtroopers. One of the new types of troopers we saw was the Mudtrooper. According to StarWars.com, \u201cFormally known as Imperial Swamptroopers, Mudtroopers are part of the Imperial Army which was gradually phased out in favor of Stormtroopers.\u201d The first time we see Han Solo after he enlisted he is a Mudtrooper, fighting in the mud.<\/p>\n

Personally when I first saw the Mudtrooper on the screen my initial thought was, \u201cI want that figure.\u201d Hasbro must have heard my wish because now the Star Wars Black Series Han Solo (Mimban) figure was released. This figure is number 78 and is part of the 20th wave of Black Series figures. This wave includes:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Han Solo (Mimban)
\n\u2022 Dryden Vos
\n\u2022 Padme Amidala
\n\u2022 Battle Droid
\n\u2022 Mace Windu
\n\u2022 Vice Admiral Holdo<\/p>\n

The Han Solo (Mimban) figure looks great. Even before I took him out of the box I was impressed. I do need to say that I feel Hasbro does a great job with their Black Series. I am a big fan of Stormtroopers and this figure is an excellent addition to my collection.
\nThere is so much to like about this figure and I am going to start with the obvious, since the helmet and facemask are removable you can either use the figure as Han Solo or leave the helmet on and you have a generic trooper. If you can find enough of them you can form an entire squad of Mudtroopers.<\/p>\n

Like the other Black Series figures this Han Solo (Mimban) figure has multiple points of articulation. His points of articulation are:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Head
\n\u2022 Shoulders
\n\u2022 Chest
\n\u2022 Elbows
\n\u2022 Wrists
\n\u2022 Hips
\n\u2022 Thighs
\n\u2022 Knees (double)
\n\u2022 Ankles
\n\u2022 Feet<\/p>\n
