One of the first images I remember from seeing Star Wars the first time in 1977 was the troopers kneeling waiting for the stormtroopers to break through. I thought they’d have one of them like that, to me it’s iconic.

Anyone else think FFG should have had one fleet trooper kneeling like at start of ANH?
Yeah, this has been addressed before and someone even did a mod in the painting forum. You should check it out.
What we really need is fleet troopers being thrown around in the air like in Rogue One.
Yes.
Also, tried out Fleet troopers for the first time and I loved them. I played with Rapid Reinforcements which certainly helped their survivability, but the 2 white dice per mini was great.
Absolutely, sort of miffed they left this pose out.
Yes.

Cut all your fleet troopers in half and get two units for one units prize, Vader style!
Yes, for me this was definitely a "WTF?" moment.
You know how people will paint them if they pose like the 4th from left?
including the white stripes XD
Well.. maybe there will be a Tantive IV battle set coming out?
Battlemat and miniatures?
Kind of surprised there wasn't at least one in that pose
Yes...would have been nice as well as one posed up against the wall trying to meld into it to avoid Vader's wrath too

The dude on the left side all the way in the back is actively pooping. There’s just no way he isn’t.
Wouldn't you crap your pants if Vader was about to board the ship

No, I would just throw sand at him ?

No judgment, but it needed to be said.
The Grenadier line lacked this pose too. Oddly they gave us two kneeling stormtroopers though... As far as I can think of gaming minis, Hasbro's D20 line is the only time we've ever gotten this character kneeling.
