20 Valuable LEGO Stormtrooper Minifigures You Might Actually Own
/Hundreds of different Stormtrooper minifigure designs have been released over LEGO’s long tenure with the LEGO Star Wars brand. Yet, only a select number are deemed collectible and valuable. Here, I’ll break down the top 20 and I’ll stick to minifigures that you’re likely to find in your own collection.
All of these minifigures were sold in sets released to the general public.

The Imperial Death Trooper is easily differentiated by the helmet and all-black design. Don’t confuse this more valuable caped version, complete with detailed torso printing, with non-caped versions released in the 2018 Star Wars Advent Calendar and 2017 Trooper Battle Pack.

9. Sandtrooper With Orange Pauldron - £23 / $29
This orange-caped Sandtrooper minifigure is the oldest version, having been released in 2004. The minifigure was released again for the 2007 Imperial Landing Craft set and whilst that version is also valuable, this one, complete with backpack, is worth more.

7. Sandtrooper Squad Leader - £25 / $31
Easily confused with other orange-caped Sandtroopers, the 2018 Sandtrooper Squad Leader can be differentiated by the helmet design (various forms have been released over the years) and black ammo pouch.

6. Sandtrooper Sergeant - £26 / $32

5. AT-AT Driver - £31 / $39
The first AT-AT Driver minifigure ever released, the helmet print varied in accuracy during it’s production across 2003 and 2004. Some had odd triangle patterns on the helmet. Don’t confuse this version, which has a yellow head, with the much less valuable black-headed version from the 2007 Motorised AT-AT.

Set: AT-AT (Blue or Black Box)

Don’t confuse this 2021 Snowtrooper Commander minifigure with the less valuable 2014 white-handed version. Whilst a few similar Snowtroopers came with the 2021 UCS AT-AT set, the Commander (distinguished by the very slightly different torso printing) was a set exclusive.
Minifig No: SW1177
Release Year: 2021
Set: UCS AT-AT
