Thanks for the tips guys!!

Any preference which is 'better'? 188 or 366?

which is better is subjective.

Amongst the 2, not much difference except the torso and the head (which you cant see after pakai helmet). My personal choice amongst stormies is the helmet only. since both are the same, whichever is chearper and can get in bulk for army building is preferred.

hmmm

... will it be easier to get the 75023 Star Wars Advent Calendar to army build? or get 9489 or 75000 to army build the trooper? will this be cheaper than get the minifig only, some more got many other extra parts for MOC.
I'm noob to star wars sets, start learning now... hopefully don't get poison to it...

army building means want many of the same minifigs. unless they have other projects for the other parts, or they sell their spare parts, normally ppl just bricklink.

Hey guys im new here and i've been following the lego thread for quite a long time . Im currently in UK and i saw the cuusoo BTTF set selling for 36pounds in their official store, is that consider expensive? Saw around 40boxes

Not cheap hobby to build sw army. Those figs r not cheap.
My advise wait for the new 2014 SW battle packs. With ALJ gone, I expect reduction in RRP
lego prices are not set by the distributor. they are set by the principal. the reduction in prices have been forthcoming for the past year now. TLG is trying to expand its reach. whoever that is taking the new distro rights is in for a good ride!
