Today’s set, 5002938 Stormtrooper Sergeant, has a misprint on the bag. It says it contains 5 pieces, but I count 6: helmet, head, torso, legs, gun, and pauldron. Unless the pauldron doesn’t count as a piece. Or the gun. I don’t know. But it’s wrong. Unless I’m wrong, but I’m never wrong. Ha, just kidding.

That’s something I really adore with builds of this scale–the parts usage ends up being really creative to imply/represent what the builder wants for the model.
