  1. Look at the top left trooper's pauldron.

    Could it be that it is orange on the underside and white out the outer?

    Sure looks orange on the bottom to me.

    That should come in handy when a promotion comes up. (Or your commanding officer with the lewis gun goes down. )

  2. RoCKo hit it on the dot about the notch on the bottom of the 4 button strip shown in the pic NHM hyperlinked (3 large button for the sandtrooper pic RoCKo posted)

    Doh!! If I only knew how to put arrows on pictures…

    Although unseen in the ESB promo pic, the trooper on the right may have an unnotched 4 button strip. If that suit was sent off to Bermans & Nathans for the ROTJ suits, most suits on display by Lucas (usually ROTJ) don't have the notch. Just a guess.

  3. The GF/ Authenticporps armor is a recast of mine. Not nearly as detailed and missing parts. They are missing the left bicep, right shoulder and also right forearm, correct knees on both sides and lower left inside leg. The suit they offer may look nice, but it is not accurate at all.

    The TE was cast from a real ROTJ suit and back engineered to ANH specs. The helmet is 100% ANH and has not been altered like the GF/AP helmet.

    TE

    I didn't know it was missing parts till I starting working on my AP suit a month ago. I noticed the missing parts and wanted to ask if anyone else with a AP suit got the same. Now that I read this thread I realized I wasted my $$$ on a suit that's not accurate. I don't have enough money for another more accurate TE set at this time. Since TE is no longer building I'll have to settle. Crap.
