Bulldog44[TK] Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 Wow! Where did you get that photo? Looks interesting if that is the real deal. Quote
BoomerTrooper Posted April 16, 2015 Author Report Posted April 16, 2015 Saw it on Reddit from someone that's at Celebration -- they also posted their ticket and photo from being on the vendor floor (early) Quote
Tusken RTT Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 (edited) LOVE it! Thanks for getting it up for us so fast! Edited April 16, 2015 by Tusken RTT 1 Quote
CRISTONAMO Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 Im sure we'll be getting great closeups of the armor, and many, many first looks at celebration if you know what I mean Quote
BoomerTrooper Posted April 16, 2015 Author Report Posted April 16, 2015 LOVE it! Thanks for getting it up for us so fast! You bet! Always going to share it with my family first! 2 Quote

Mongoose[TK] Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 Really cool. Can't wait to see some more great pictures from CVII. Quote
Skypig Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 Is that some kind of rank insignia on the right chest? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote
starsaber25[Admin] Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 Hey Eric Thanks! It would be cool if there were some ranks with Stormtroopers. Also I wonder what the deal is with the inside of the left forearm. Does that do "something" or is it just for looks... Quote
BTJepson Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 The armor is going to be on display starting tomorrow, along with a few more Ep 7 props and costumes. Can't wait for people to start sending back close ups of the new armor. I like it! 1 Quote
#Feeling[TK] Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 Really cool, when can I get one lolll Quote

SofusSnake Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 Cool, somehow it looks bulkier than the originals, like an extended universe heavy/armored trooper from the Jedi Knight video games or something. Seems like he's got some sort of weapon thing to the inside of his armguards.I'm looking forward to seeing someone build this type of trooper, though. (Those knee protectors look like they will be a pain in the.. "sarlacc pit" to fasten.)What's curious though, is that this is somewhat, and rather oddly, resembling a CG render or something, the pose looks really awkward when not in context to anything. Quote
SofusSnake Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 Now i know what's up with the picture, they just forgot to add the most crucial detailing! 2 Quote
PGHtrooper21 Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 The front shin looks like the inner part of the Origional Triliogy TK Forearms. Or is it me? Andy Quote
JEDISTAR[TK] Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 Wow! Seeing this pic now doesnt help the anticipation of waiting to get down there!! Lol Soon enough... Quote
aliens8us Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 That scope looks impractical. I know it's future tech. But assuming the new helmet has a HUD system, there's no need for a scope. And in that helmet, can you imagine seeing a Trooper (although vision seems to be opened up compared to the original) concentrating and looking through the scope just seems stupid. Quote

And in that helmet, can you imagine seeing a Trooper (although vision seems to be opened up compared to the original) concentrating and looking through the scope just seems stupid.It doesn't have to be a scope. It could be a sort of aimpoint hooked-up to the in-helmet HUD, for example.I'm making this up, of course, but in sci-fi you can find all sorts of explanations for seemingly illogical stuff. Quote
Griffin-X[TK] Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 Pure awesome, thanks for this post! Quote
Artshot Posted April 16, 2015 Report Posted April 16, 2015 I do like how the good old sterling is still somewhere in his blaster, should make kits a lot easier to build, I wonder if the forearm is going to contain a blade of some description, like Assassins Creed ? Quote
