Stormtrooper Chrome BE@RBRICKs: Imperial or First Order

“Chrome Stormtrooper” leaves out an important identity distinction. Medicom has a Stormtrooper Chrome 400% announcement and a separate First Order Stormtrooper, The Force Awakens version, in a 100% and 400% configuration.

The shared finish wording can make a broad search look more uniform than the products actually are. Keep the full character designation before comparing sizes or prices.

Read the full character and format

The Stormtrooper Chrome 400% page specifies one approximately 280 mm figure, a ¥8,000 before-tax quote, and a June 20, 2015 planned release in an exhibition context. Its title does not contain the First Order designation.

The First Order Chrome page explicitly names The Force Awakens version and a 100% and 400% configuration. It quotes ¥16,000 before tax with December 2019 planned release wording and describes a PARCO pop-up sales context.

In a personal shortlist, “Imperial/classic Stormtrooper” can help you distinguish the first target from the explicitly named First Order target. Preserve the manufacturer’s exact title alongside that personal grouping rather than substituting the grouping for the source wording.

Finish does not identify the whole product

Chrome is part of each release’s treatment name. It does not make the character identity, purchase unit, or announcement context the same. It also does not establish a solid-metal construction specification.

The standalone reference and First Order set reference in the BE@RBRICK Master Index let you send a seller the exact intended target. That is more useful than asking whether a broadly described “silver trooper” is correct.

If you are comparing appearances, use the corresponding official images and photographs of the actual offered item. A reflective surface can look different under different lighting, so keep title and packaging evidence with the visual comparison.

Ask about original configuration separately

The first source documents a standalone 400%; the second documents a mixed-size set. If a seller offers only a 400% First Order figure, note that the offer is for a component from the referenced configuration. It is not equivalent to the complete original set merely because the larger nominal size matches.

The quoted historical amounts are therefore attached to different purchase units. Dividing the set quote in half would not establish official individual component prices, and comparing raw amounts cannot establish a current premium for one character version.

The exhibition and pop-up references provide documented sales context. They do not disclose a numerical production run. Keep a claim of scarcity separate until exact supporting evidence exists.

For physical inspection, use the gallery’s BE@RBRICK authentication checklist with actual-item photographs. The index helps identify a reference release; it does not authenticate a seller’s object.

A precise target keeps four details together: character designation, Chrome wording, nominal size, and original configuration. That makes a familiar-looking finish much less likely to send your comparison toward the wrong release.
