    I really miss these models and when they were Strom troopers with hellguns. A lot cooler.

      My first Stormtroopers were the beret guys and they actually had hotshots. It’s kind of funny when I see nostalgia for hellguns over the “new” hotshot name.

        See I always associated hotshots as lasguns with overcharged packs. I think that was an upgrade in early edition of necromunda. And you had a “gets hot!” Mechanic.

          You’re totally right that hotshots have packs. The original stormtroopers with hotshots had backpacks and power cables. They were replaced by the metal minis with hellguns, now current models are back to hotshots. The original original style, first plastics same design as the first metals.

          I’ve had wannabe grogs (not you!) try to correct my usage of hotshots as the original stormtrooper gun because they think these metal minis are the originals.
