kwdesigns[TK] Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 So is there any interest in the "Animated Stormtrooper" from the new up-coming Star Wars REBELS TV show???? The armor and helmets are very much different than any of the movies or video games. O'ya and it looks like we will see some with orange pauldron too. Kevin W.

seantrooper[TK] Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Looks like a MRCE & FX lovechild........ I'm sure your time and talents could be much better spent...... perhaps a mcquarrie concept helmet?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK bondservnt[501st] Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 please don't make this costume... it looks so very wrong. how many people are going to see this and say? Bad stormy costume. and then they will have to explain... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C HERM Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Yes, you have my interest in the "Animated Stormtrooper" from the new up-coming Star Wars REBELS TV show. Option for a pauldron'd version...? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin-X[TK] Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 Sort of like a...Rubies costume, eh?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daetrin[Admin] Posted November 19, 2013 Report Share Posted November 19, 2013 I'm wondering if in Season 2 they'll change it? The Clone Wars helmets changed over time - perhaps enough people will whisper in Filoni's ear... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Palpatine1977 Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 For the love of all that is sacred, nooooo.. I really really hope that they change the look before airing the show, because I'm sure I'm not alone in saying that I laugh every time I see that helmet xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrainWreck[501st] Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 Maybe this is LFL's way of legitimizing all of the licensed armor like rubies. "if we make it look like the bad armor everyone will think it's legit!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikedwelle94[TK] Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 (edited) Gah....this is saddening to read. I think the new Stormtroopers look fine. It's different, yes, but...wow. Imagine if the animated Clone Wars haters were successful in persuading the armor makers not to make those suits. The 501st would have a lot less variety, and the RL would suffer as well. Kevin and WCA (sorry if I'm missing any others) were awesome in that they could build these Clone and DW kits and get them in the hands of troopers. The TV shows are what the kids these days are into, and they need something immediately recognizable to them. I would think that this one would be a future FISD costume, so seeing so many negative comments from members of this forum really rustles my jimmies. I probably won't be able to make one of those things fit me, but you should totally make these suits Kevin. If not KW, someone's going to. Someone already made the helmet... https://www.facebook.com/grandzillocreations So get used to seeing them around, because once they're here, they're not going away.

Daetrin[Admin] Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 I believe acceptance goes both ways. It should be OK that some folks love it, some will hate it. There is no rule that says everyone on FISD has to like everything equally about stormtroopers. Even in canon TK's we see this, e.g. some like the ROTJ TK, some do not. It's a live & let live kinda place... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikedwelle94[TK] Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 I'm okay with the fact that people won't like it -- that's harmless, but when I see comments like "don't make this suit," that's what gets me riled up. Some of us don't consider that there are folks who would love to get into something like this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 Understood, and I would totally agree with you there. I'm 100% confident people will make this suit and will rock it out. If we're lucky, they will be done in time for Celebration 7 - how cool would that be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sskunky Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 (edited) Kinda reminds me of my Disney suit! Edited April 30, 2014 by sskunky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holnave (evan_loh)[TK] Posted April 30, 2014 Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 I totally dig the animated look. Sure I'm a purist and my favourite will always be the ANH look but I was always fond of cartoon-ized versions. Look at my pixel stormie profile pic!

Grimez Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 The animated version (as much as I dislike it), does look considerably better in real life. Grand Zillo did an excellent job with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouse38[TK] Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 I would totally suit up in the Rebels TK. It's all about the kids and reaching a new audience. If you go this route Kevin I'll support you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Ivan[TK] Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 I quite like it, and would love to have one in my collection and I think it would make a great addition to the 501st legion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
