AFA/UKG Graded Hoth Stormtrooper Variants by www.youtube.com 
In this video, Action Figure Grader, also known as John, talks about his collection of Hoth Stormtroopers from the vintage Star Wars line. John has several versions of the figure, including five loose examples that are all graded, a carded example that is not graded yet, and a Black Series version. He details the small variations that make each figure unique, from differences in their molds to changes in their armor. He particularly focuses on the various country of origin versions, including three from Hong Kong, one from China, a Spanish version, and a special hard torso version. John also mentions a rare YPS Stormtrooper that was packed in with a German comic magazine. He ends by comparing his carded and ungraded Hoth Stormtrooper to the 2016 Black Series figure. John's passion for collecting Hoth Stormtroopers is evident, and his detailed knowledge of the figures is impressive
