Thrawndike bar Posted November 6, 2019 Report Posted November 6, 2019 The new teaser trailer for the Mandalorian released recently and confirmed that there was scout troopers in it! Upon closer inspection of the trailer, I noticed that the scout troopers were having a bit of a malfunction... You can't see the rest of the costume, but the upside down knee pads are pretty noticeable. The costume that I'm assuming was from the Mandalorian was displayed at SDCC. You can see the upside down knee pads in the first picture, as well a few other "malfunctions". The knee pads were fixed in the second picture, but there is still that wonky cummerband and belt. We can't see the scout's torso in the trailer, but hopefully it isn't like it was at SDCC... 1 Quote
gmrhodes13[Staff] Posted November 6, 2019 Report Posted November 6, 2019 As I said on Pathfinders, LFL need to employ some 501st costume advisors on the payroll to check costumes before filming 3 Quote
Thrawndike bar Posted November 6, 2019 Author Report Posted November 6, 2019 Or just have some reference pictures of the original costumes on hand, so they can make sure they are suiting the actors up correctly! 3 Quote
Sly11[Admin] Posted November 6, 2019 Report Posted November 6, 2019 Or maybe just maybe, they did it just to get the OCD pinging on all the 501st members. I wouldn’t put anything past Disney or Jon Favs wicked sense of humour lolSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Quote
mikidymac[TK] Posted November 6, 2019 Report Posted November 6, 2019 Also remember that they are doing this with a much smaller budget than a feature film and using new techniques in filming and editing so that they can immediately see the shots. Because of this the filming is at a much faster pace and less time for the continuity checkers to do their work. Just be glad that John and Dave are giving us back some of the most iconic OT characters that we have all been asking for. How cool is it that they actually used a scout regardless if he has a knee plate wrong? 1 Quote
Thrawndike bar Posted November 6, 2019 Author Report Posted November 6, 2019 Yeah, regardless of the knee plate, I'm still really excited to see a Scout Trooper on screen again! I was surprised when they didn't use them in rogue one! Quote
giskard8[Staff] Posted November 6, 2019 Report Posted November 6, 2019 Just another new CRL in Pathfinders, nothing to see. Move along. Move along, Quote
