gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted February 1, 2016 Report Posted February 1, 2016 There was someone looking at supplying a black version TFA Stormtrooper a while ago but I believe had to remove his sale thread due to pressure. This figure is the only one I have seen so far, no photos or other reference, which is a shame. Quote
The5thHorseman[501st] Posted February 1, 2016 Report Posted February 1, 2016 Which is fortunate. I've never been a fan of black stormtrooper armors, whether OT or TFA, and this one makes no exception. However, given the black and red colors, this stormtrooper must been a "Special Force" one. Like for the TIE fighters and pilots. Quote
mitcheg1[501st] Posted February 1, 2016 Report Posted February 1, 2016 A squad mate and I were just talking about this a few weeks ago! I love the look of the Elite trooper! Quote
tkrestonva[TK] Posted February 1, 2016 Report Posted February 1, 2016 Dan Rodriguez, one of the Legion COGs and a member of Old Line Garrison (OLG) in Maryland is working on one. http://www.whitearmor.net/forum/user/14483-danrodjr/ Quote
danrodjr[TK] Posted February 2, 2016 Report Posted February 2, 2016 (edited) I am almost done. I am getting the red marking finished by a sign shop, and have to mod my straps and snaps, then tighten up odds and ends and I am done. Should be a week or so. Edited February 2, 2016 by danrodjr 1 Quote
danrodjr[TK] Posted February 2, 2016 Report Posted February 2, 2016 So this trooper was supposedly cut from the movie from a scene when they land on Starkiller base. Ray and Finn were in a short chase scene with them on speeder bikes. You see the speeder bike at the power generator when they arrive there in go inside. I hope that if this is correct then the scene will be on the Blueray when it gets released as a deleted scene. This trooper was also featured on some Disney art and a Dodge Challenger promo. The chest striping is the same as the striping on the hood of the Challenger. 1 Quote

The snowpeeder above is the vehicule Finn and Rey got out before entering the Starkiller Base. Quote
danrodjr[TK] Posted February 2, 2016 Report Posted February 2, 2016 I did see that the speeder scene with those were cut as well. Quote
danrodjr[TK] Posted February 7, 2016 Report Posted February 7, 2016 Dropped my chest plate off at the sign shop for the details to be done, what you see on my chest I did as a template, so I should have it back on Monday. Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted February 7, 2016 Report Posted February 7, 2016 Can't wait to see more, especially the extended edition with these scenes in full motion. Quote

Should be a week or so. so you are getting the red stripes done with vinyl or paint? Quote
TK-Sonic[TK] Posted February 15, 2016 Report Posted February 15, 2016 Also for those of you interested in Black TFA armor for a project like these feel free to contact me. Quote
Daetrin[Admin] Posted February 16, 2016 Report Posted February 16, 2016 Aside from color, is there any difference? Quote
danrodjr[TK] Posted March 5, 2016 Report Posted March 5, 2016 No just the color and the red striping. Quote
danrodjr[TK] Posted March 5, 2016 Report Posted March 5, 2016 I am mostly completed at this point, I have taken the build to the Special Operations board and written the CRL which was based off of the CRL for the white TFA Trooper. here is where I am at this point. Quote
