Yes you get the Storm Troopers in one of the classic sets, The Speederbikes, there's 2 on the bikes. I'd love to get a bunch of these, though my lego budget has been shot to hell and back with buying all the other sets and a few dups of the bigger (...) (26 years ago, 7-May-99, to lugnet.starwars)

Storm Troopers are the standard shock troops. Their helmets don't have the hood thing at the top, their eye holes are smaller, and the helmet is somewhat more rounded. Also, the body armour is heavier, although a minifig won't show that. Actually, (...) (26 years ago, 7-May-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Try wrapping a small piece of paper around the pegs before attaching the pieces. It won't stop the wiggling, but it should reduce it greatly. Steve (26 years ago, 7-May-99, to lugnet.starwars)
