The card trader app gave us our best look yet at this kit

This is me as I am still trying to finish my shoretrooper/flametrooper/and way too many other kits.

The leather mag pouch is the Yugo M56 correct..same as the shoretrooper.

Anybody else see that vertical seam on the belly between the chestplate and the belt? This is not a standard double-breasted Imperial officer uniform underneath. Also the chestplate is not exactly like the Veers/Snowtrooper pattern either, with different button placement and the armor joints from the arms toward the belt buckle. I think that an Galactic Marine is a good blank slate but may need to be extended down the belly. Imperial Navy Commando is also similar.

 

[edit] Looks like a guy on the main 501st boards is looking for "investors" for new molds he'll be making for the unique armor parts, like the chestpiece.

Those "capes" look like Soviet WW II plash-palatkas, Soviet Half shelters / rain gear.

Makes me wonder if a plash-palatka would work.

We don't learn much more about this costume than we already knew from the latest trailer, but here are some pics nonetheless. I'm definitely getting a Janek Sunber/Maridun vibe off of all this though -- definitely belongs here in the Imperial Army section.

 

 

 

 

And this one to me looks like Marty McFly:

Thank you for the pics!

We've got some more images from Topps. Be warned, speculation abounds on the source websites, but the images are legit published. They've got a serious Firefly Browncoats crossover going on.

The blasters are pretty cool. There's something like a A180 sniper, and it seems's Val has a holdout Scout blaster on her bandolier. Beckett's dual pistols in the first pic somewhat remind me of a Bryar in his right hand and not sure of the one in his left.

 

There's also a guy on etsy selling the E-11 Mudtrooper variant.

So according to that text the mudtroopers are Imperial Swamp Troopers!

 

Hmmmmmmm!!

[pm07[TX]]

That sucks that those are the only pics in the book

[Magyarsoldat[TX]]

I can't wait to see still of the encampment. There were a great deal if variants I caught. Are there any photos in the book of the officers?

[Hask[501st]]

Yes but nothing really new they look like R1 Officer's

850 Armor Works has made molds for this costume and had a debut at the premiere. They are tweaking the design now that the Visual Dictionary has come out.

Once we have good references of the pieces, we can start working on it. Basically, start building and make notes of why what you're planning on using matches the costume references.

[izzi[TX]]

Some one has submitted a Mud Trooper to the Legion for review. The LMO Team has directed them to us for costume comparison and CRL Creation. Stay tuned.

We've had an applicant with a possible approvable build who also did a break down. Let the fun begin:
