Stormtrooper 4-up Hardcopy Paint Master (517-020)
Showcased here is a painted Stormtrooper 4-up. This action oriented pose is designated by the number 517-020. The first three digits represent the Death Star Compactor playset, while the last three indicate the particular character/pose.

Above we see a rear shot of the 4-up. A 1:1 unpainted micro is included in the above pictures to give a sense of the immense size of the 4-up paint master compared to the production toy's size. 4-ups certainly are a display oriented prototype since their large size makes them very visually appealing when present in a collection.

Above we see this 4-up amongst his stormtrooper paint master brethren in a complete assemblage of every stormtrooper pose available in the Micro Collection.
