Dbop1120 Posted May 27, 2020 Report Posted May 27, 2020 Does anyone know what TK's are in The Mandalorian? I've heard ANH, & R1. I thought the show took place after ROTJ, so I assumed it was those TK's. Thanks. Quote
TKSpartan[Staff] Posted May 27, 2020 Report Posted May 27, 2020 Hi Darin, welcome to FISD. What I have read here and if you look at the screen captured photos It seems like a ANH TK helmet with a R1 armor. There's no official CRL yet. cheers 1 Quote
PhilBobTheFish Posted May 27, 2020 Report Posted May 27, 2020 It's weird, because the helmets on Pike's in the town were all rogue one helmets. So I guess the troopers all traded out for a better model Quote
TheRascalKing[TK] Posted May 28, 2020 Report Posted May 28, 2020 ALL armor worn by studio actors on the show was Rogue One/Anthology style armor. The majority wore R1/Anthology style helmets as well, but notably (and as pictured above), the TKs in service to "The Client" appear to be wearing ANH style helmets, possibly modified Anovos. Pike helmets appear to be modified Black Series. The other exception was 33 members of the Legion, who were mixed in with Moff Gideon's posse (not just the background ) and wore their own armor - mostly ANH but a few ESB, and in this scene only. Technically at this point in the continuity, any of those suits could be canon, as TKs are wearing whatever is leftover/available. I doubt strongly we'll ever see ROTJ or even true OT era suits in an LFL production again - Anthology suits are more comfortable and look better on film. 3 Quote
Ripper_L[Admin] Posted May 28, 2020 Report Posted May 28, 2020 In some of the scenes 501st members with their own armor were present on set. They were mostly used in the background. For the close-up and stunt shots it looks like Rogue One armor to me. btw this subforum is ment to be for technical support, I will move the thread to the correct place. ;) 1 Quote
PhilBobTheFish Posted May 28, 2020 Report Posted May 28, 2020 This image shows some beat up helmets from the show, so they could either be for troopers or pikes. But either way, that don't look like black series (although I could be wrong, as I haven't extensively studying those). So, definitely Rogue One style helmets used. They would definitely have used the RO style armor because that's what they've got on hand. My guess would be that for the ANH helmets, they got them from Anovos, because the details are so sharp, and also because Disney has deals with Anovos already. 2 Quote

The rest of what I said, I can confirm as fact, but unsure about the spike helmets since I didn't see them in person. But that slanted last tube stripe is a dead giveaway for a Black Series if you ask me. No actors to my knowledge wore BSs on set, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if they didn't want to ruin the limited number of actual RO helmets they had and used them for the spike scene. I assume the same for Anovos - they're easy to get, so it's likely, but unconfirmed. 1 Quote
themaninthesuitcase[Admin] Posted May 29, 2020 Report Posted May 29, 2020 Those non R1 helmets look spot on for anovos to me. The sharp tears and general shape do it for me. The ears look off but that might be the angle or heavy weathering. Quote

Unfortunately your armor is Original Trilogy and not R1/Mandalorian so unless it's just for cosplay you won't be able to get 501st legion approval Here's the OT game version https://www.whitearmor.net/forum/forum/54-incinerator-trooper/ 1 Quote
