Haha well done my man good one :lol: :lol: :lol:

I've only ever stripped a L98 which is the single shot version of the SA-80. Never passed my weapons handling test on that because they didn't put me in for it. ****in two days taking it apart putting it together pretending to shoot and then they never let me take the test. Cadets was ****.

as far as i know the YPS snowtrooper had a black weapon, i seen a few silver ones on fleabay tho

1985 as the YPS Trooper was released, only a few of them had the black Action Force gun, because Palitoy ran out of stock with the usual snowtrooper Gun. Nowadays there are much more YPS Snowtrooper with the black AF Gun, than the date of release, because it makes the YPS trooper more valueable. So everyones tries to get a AF gun for his YPS trooper.
The silver gun is from the Action Force Arctic Assault.

so is a yps trooper just a normal trooper with the different gun/rifle ??

They look the same until you compare them with a standard one and you notice the YPS (aka PBP) Snowtrooper has more defined features, is made of a harder plastic and the holes in the skirt are different.

The COO of the YPS trooper is always scarred out (real scar)...all other should be the TRI ones. The YPS trooper is not snow white, he is kind of darker white more like creme white (don´t know if this is the right name for the color in english). He does not yellowing...only the TRI does.
The holes in the skirt are different, that´s right, and the skirt of the YPS and TRI have no cross pattern.

 

[gustie]

well that clear up i have a real YPS then it is exactly like yours

i never knew about 3 slit and 4 slit rifles... which comes with what??

 

[mike-skywalker]

I think you´ll find both rifles on every card.

 

[gustie]

both of mine are 3 slit... on for dengar, i wondered if dengars was slightly different maybe like maybe the 3 and the snowtrooper the 4 slit or vice versa

probably not tho lol

That's an awesome picture Mike!

Do you have your own website?

 

[craignwo4life]

Mirco you seem to be missing the Macao Snowtrooper but I cannot remember if that has a blank bar or just no COO? :?

 

[mike-skywalker]

Macao Snowtrooper...heard of him. But I don´t know how the coo looks like, either.
I´will check this out.

@vintagefan77:
