Episode 9 Stormtrooper research (Caution Spoilers Ahead)

[Alay[501st]]

Starting this topic now that we're seeing leaks and other shots!  Post here with any cool finds or notes

[Shimo[TK]]

There is a raffle going on the UK, which says the winner will get a screen used Episode IX Trooper Helmet:

Some User on reddit made a great comparison between the episodes:

 

 

So there are some minor differences (can also be the camera angle) between the Episode 8 and 9 Helmet, but over all it seems they keept the Episode 8 Design

Copy that lol

Thank God little has changed. Though the leaks for the possible 709th red helmet are something new. Perhaps this trooper type will have more than 10 seconds of screen time!

[Sly11[Admin]]

Helmets and armour might be the same but new weapons are a 100% certainty, plus quite a number of special forces forces TK's in scenes

I just hope they aren't relegated to duty beneath them like in Solo.  We really need them to be something feared again, like in EP7

Nothing strikes terror into the soul like a TK brandishing an Imperial Issue toilet brush.

I'm probably in the minority..but I still prefer the TFA lid. Must be the ROTJ TK fan in me- love a nice fat black frown!

Check this thread https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/topic/46761-new-helmet-design-epix-crew-merchandisepromo-clothing/

 

[Sano[TK]]

So the leaked promo pic indeed confirmed the look somehow. Good thing is, I probably just need a new black insert piece and a new nose plate to make the red E9 helmet

[Sly11[Admin]]

Here you go,

Any idea where those pics came from?

[gmrhodes13[Staff]]

Internet, posted by someone who mocked them up, other thread about the helmet variants his here 

 

[Thrawndike bar]

I like the clone trooper inspiration in the special forces helmet visor.

Similar to Magmatrooper from EU

[Vengeance[TK]]

Nice to see troopers doing something int he trailer already. Plus we could have jetpacks too.

[gmrhodes13[Staff]]

Rather a flaccid trailer, well except for that laugh  

 

[ukswrath[Staff]]

Dang it I may have to watch the trailer now. 

[Sly11[Admin]]

Here's another image from Social Media.

Definitely looks like fan art, love the pink colored troopers
