Recommended Posts

that front guy is missing ab buttons and that rear guy is missing the ab plate,,,and cant be a sandy cuz he has drop boxes.....

 

And the guys have TD knee plates. Pretty sure it's a promo pic, i.e. anything goes!

this is the description from swhelmets site

 

 

Here's a publicity shot done in the UK in late 1977 / early 1978 for the UK release. Its clear that they've just tried to pull together any bits and pieces they can get their hands on including parts from both Stormtroopers and Sandtroopers (check the knee plates and the left troopers stomach box). Vader himself also seems to have a wonky dome and may well be the ANH original, which did not have a reliable fixing mechanism. It featured in the UK Monthly Poster mag (Spring '78).

Ok, so my mind may be playing tricks on me but......

 

Wasn't there a Japanese promo pic with a weird blaster in it? Some Japanese issue machinegun/pistol ?

Wow Billy. Incredible. I don't even want to know where you pulled that out of.
