The Utapau Shadow Trooper is not considered rare, as it was part of Sideshow Collectibles' standard 2011 release schedule with a production run of approximately 1,500 units.

Sideshow Collectibles did not produce a standalone Utapau Shadow Trooper figure in 2011, so your item is likely a counterfeit or a mislabeled product from another manufacturer like Hasbro. Authentic Sideshow figures from that era feature specific sculpting details, such as distinct armor paneling and weathering, which differ significantly from standard retail releases. You should verify the manufacturer's logo on the base and compare the figure's proportions against official product images from 2011 to confirm its origin.
The Utapau Shadow Trooper was released in 2011 by Sideshow Collectibles.
The Utapau Shadow Trooper by Sideshow Collectibles is no longer in print and is not available to buy new from the manufacturer. This 2011 release was part of a limited production run that has long since sold out. Collectors must currently seek this item through secondary markets, such as online resale platforms or private sellers.
Inspect the vinyl for stress cracks, particularly around the joints and helmet seams, as this figure is prone to brittleness over time. Check the fabric armor for fading, loose stitching, or discoloration from prolonged exposure to light. Verify that the included accessories, such as the blaster rifle and lightsaber, are present and undamaged. Note that original packaging significantly impacts value, so assess box condition if the item is sealed.
