Who else would love to see a new live action film, a sequel in the spirit of the original, and with some of the original cast and characters? It's strange how things like this or Jericho or Babylon 5 take on a life of their own but get shown the executive door when it comes to support for taking it to the next level. I don't understand why the franchise was allowed subsequently to flounder, despite best efforts of Casper Van Dien and friends. The 1997 movie was done well and a lot of fun. Pricing and release date haven’t been announced at this time. The massive statue measures at 47″ tall and 53″ long. The statue features the most recognizable of the creatures from the series, the Warrior Bug, as it breaks through a stronghold. They are producing a Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars – Warrior Bug 1/6 Scale Diorama Statue.


The latest is Starship Troopers: Traitor of Mars, which brings back original characters Johnny Rico, and is a direct follow up to the second live action film.Ī new statue has been revealed by Gantaku. The film has actually spawned a few live action sequels, as well as a few CGI animated films of varying quality. Like many of Verhoven’s films, Starship Troopers is soaked in blood, dark humor, and social commentary. The movie follows a group of young adults, as they join various parts of the military ahead of an intergalactic war with a race of gigantic insects. In 1997, director Paul Verhoeven unleashed his cinematic adaptation of the Starship Troopers novel.
