what is the difference


Recommended Posts

TD has the following which a TK does not:

- sniper knee plate

- different ABS

- backpack

- pauldron

- most importantly DIRT

 

Check out mepd.net for more on the dirty brothers of the TK's.

What you're really asking is what's the difference between a canon stormtrooper and a canon sandtrooper.

 

And all TD helmets are stunt, e.g. 4 teeth cut out with flat green lenses. For MEPD, you'll also need at least one (but usually two) ammo pouches, and a BFG. And, no drop boxes. And, no cannister. And ideally, no plastic straps to connect chest/ab plate.

 

As you can see, there are about a dozen differences. See http://www.mepd.net/require/index.htm for a good pix.

 

I've see some try to make two costumes from one set of armor, but it never really works out if you want to do it correctly.

 

NOTE! Legion costume designations are *not* always in sync with the costume in question. TD's actually also include "Heavy Weapons Troopers", which are similar to a SE sandtrooper but no dirt. TK also includes an EU "stormtrooper officer", which is essentially a stormtrooper variant with a pauldron.

 

MEPD and FISD focus strictly on canon costumes. Spec Ops Detachment includes all TX (EU troopers) plus HWT's (which are TD) and stormtrooper officer's (which are technically TK).

Heck, if it's a pack you want, go with the zero-atmosphere Stormtrooper accessories. They're around on this board in a few places. Most recently in the ANH behind-the-scenes thread right below this one.
