jjarmoryinc Posted September 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2015 (edited) Also, note that Finn is NOT wearing the standard issue First Order boots but rather the boots that he wears in his "rebel" uniform... ------------ I had previously assumed that Finn ditched his entire armor set, including his white First Order boots, and "borrows" Poe's jacket and shoes after a certain pivotal point in the movie. But this image leads me to believe that he is wearing the boots pictured on the cover of the Visual Directory the entire time; that they start off white but over the course of the film (due to sand, mud, dirt, sunbleaching, etc) they become the weathered tan seen at Celebration (and on Boyega's Instagram):http://i.imgur.com/ijQ8xzP.pnghttp://i.imgur.com/A1Jaf4F.jpg Under the reddish/orange lighting of Celebration they looked quite brown, but the photo above that Boyega shared (likely taken under flourescent studio/office lighting) does a better job of implying they may have started out "trooper white" and become dulled/worn to that shade over time (or deliberately weathered by the prop department, most likely). This detail doesn't seem to apply to any other FO troopers, and thus likely isn't of any concern to others here on FISD... but as someone who wants to attend the Premieres as an (accurate) Trooper Finn this is a game changer. On one hand, I do not need to worry about having a pair of FO trooper boots and then a pair of Rebel Finn boots. On the other hand, it means I can't just buy a pair of boots from one of the runs here and I'll need to get a custom-pair of Trooper Finn boots done up just for me (and then buy two pairs, so one can be clean and one can be dirty). UGH. RIP my wallet Edited July 1, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link removed no longer working Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tkrestonva[TK] Posted September 26, 2015 Report Share Posted September 26, 2015 Looking closely at Finn's boots while he is in his trooper gear ... I think you're right. Well done. Looking forward to trooping with you in Richmond at the premiere this coming December. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjarmoryinc Posted September 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2015 Would have been very sweet to see it called the F15D, but alas... I kinda like F-11D. The E-11 was used by the Empire. This is used by the First Order, so it's the F-11. Not to mention that F comes after E in the English alphabet, so it's kind of appropriate for the direct descendant of the E-11. I will call them the crocodile boots if you pardon me . LOL, they certainly look the part! Looking closely at Finn's boots while he is in his trooper gear ... I think you're right. Well done. Looking forward to trooping with you in Richmond at the premiere this coming December. Hey buddy, I'd love to, but I'm not an actual 501st member yet ... I am hoping to have my TFA finished by then, but there's no guarantee I'll pass approval in time for the premiere. Either way, I will definitely be attending as many of the premieres as I can in costume... hopefully as a proud member of the 501st! plasma blade for Kylo Ren's lightsaber apparently ooo All lightsabers emit a plasma blade. That's nothing new for the Visual Dictionaries to point out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimmyC Posted September 27, 2015 Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 what a great find! from what I can tell this is the first shot i've seen of the new officers blaster from the other side... sweet. just want i was looking for! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamdasher Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 It looks slick, but as a shooter in real life, seeing the counter and power pack moved to the right side of the rifle and used by right-handed troopers irks me a bit. That placement would make using it as a lefty just fine, but as a right-handed shooter, it would be very inconvenient. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted December 14, 2015 Report Share Posted December 14, 2015 As a left handed shooter, I like it ;-) Then again in the movie though, it seems they are firing right handed all the time...maybe 'cause they want to mount it on the right thigh, and they're not exactly ejecting shells... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
