BFA Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 (edited) I thought some of you may be interested in these pics. I was going through some old photo albums last week and I came across these pics of the stormtrooper tour suits . If I remember rightly these pics were taken in the early 90's poss 1992. They were at a shopping center in Bournemouth UK, there were a couple of Stormtroopers a vader and 2 imperial officers , it was part of a promotional tour around the UK , they even had a full size X-wing on the back of a trailer. The pics are not the best quality as I have had to scan them onto the computer. I do have a couple more with the Xwing and vader which I can scan if anyone is interested in seeing them. Enjoy the snaps Edited February 15, 2021 by gmrhodes13 photos updated gmrhodes13 2021 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nairod Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Wow, great pictures! Thank you. The TOUR SUIT helmet looks like the Special Edition (ROTJ look with grey decals). But the dome appears to be shorter. In your opinion, lenses are they green or smoked? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BFA Posted July 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 I think that the lenses look like smoked bubbles , it maybe just the angles of the pics tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troopermaster Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Great pics Andy! These remind me of the ones I have from the 1999 Wembly MOM exhibiton. I'll have to dig them out and scan them, even though they are nothing sprecial due to the crappy camera I had a the time and also wasting most of the film on Don Post statues and not expecting to see the 'tour suits'. Thanks for sharing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

troopermaster Posted July 7, 2008 Report Share Posted July 7, 2008 Thanks Paul, nice picture! The TS and FX armor have not the same white! More importantly, the LFL suits are not the same white as any of the replicas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
