TK1491 Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 photo courtesy of Jeremy (gonk27) over at the Prop Den, this awesome pic shows what appears to be an ANH trooper (sandy, maybe) mobbed by kids outside. Check out the hand plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trooperdad Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 You can also really see the rubber-like gloves too. You know why he is touching his helmet--he's angling it down so he can see the little kids in front of him! Don G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amish Trooper Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 I see he is missing a handguard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott M.[TK] Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 It is a true TK, not a TD. You can barely see the ab buttons, as well as the trap lines on the helmet. Cool pic. Thanks for sharing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK1491 Posted March 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 some thought that the absence of shoulder straps pointed to a TD, but I definitely see the trap lines. Could be pieced together for an appearance...? and the rubber gloves...ooooh sweaty hands!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTKenobi[TK] Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 That is THE best pic I have seen in a long time. That is what its all about!!!! Yes, AWESOME pic. Thank you very much for sharing! It looks like he's got some marks (smudges) on his shoulder, chest and under his frown. I wonder if we can place him on screen. Does anyone know if this guy really was on location as the caption states? Also, I can't quite tell how his tear is painted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's printed highlighting a brief plea amongst members for any archival photos or film they may have connected to Elstree studios for a potential BBC documentary..

TK6631[501st] Posted August 1, 2008 Report Share Posted August 1, 2008 Great behind the scenes pic, thanks for showing us..I have a couple of unseen pictures from the making of the special edition of Star Wars (my friend works for ILM and was in the remastered version). He sent me 2 photos, one of him standing with a Jawa and 2 troopers, and another of the film crew filming with a blue screen to add the extra folk into the remastered Mos Eisley scenes.
