TFA Phasma CRL Omission & Query

[Sni9er]

Good Morning Folks

 

Been meaning to do this for a while, as we've worked towards completion of Phasma, I noticed an omission on the Phasma CRL, there is no requirement for a TD, however although moslty covered by the cape it is very much there:

 

 

VF on-set shoot:

 

Official Promo:

 

BTS Extras:

 

D23:

Bandai Toy (seemingly all are made from scans certainly not a primary reference but certainly there:

 

It's also featured on the EP8 Leak although there are some other Armour changes there to consider also so i have not featured it here

 

there also seems to be some ambiguity about the belt box entry featuring "this pouch may be covered by a smaller silver or chrome box cover." the small pouch features a chrome cover on every reference available however this is written 

 

on the boots front the CRL states: "with no pronounced heel." For Clarity what would that be exactly the original looks to be approx 1' but not sure what would be seamed pronounced unless it should be no pronounced sole (i.e the part under the front half of foot)

 

thanks folks!

Thanks for all the references - seems an easy enough add.

Thanks for the Reply!

 

there are other issues too ..

 

On the blaster, there are no references that show the gun as silver in any instance, the most common argument used was this shot:

 

 

 

however when you compare the hand plates to the gun closely it's clear the shade is not the same (although the torch ring only remains silver/chrome)

 

other refrences that show the shade include wired's arsenal article 2015:

On the Topic of Gloves:

no specification of materiel, this should be Leather or Leather Like:

there is also a type error on the Wrist plate line:

 

"A wrist plate is mounted securely between the handplate and the forearm, contouredcountoured to match the hand plate."

 

 

Neckseal: this should be rubber//shiny materiel same as the gaskets:

I have spoken to the LMO and we'll add the thermal det once we have a good picture of it as an L2 requirement, as otherwise it's not really visible in the movie.  Will change to a base if we clearly see it in EP8.

EP8 perhaps would need to be a new CRL ?

 

for EP 8 there are a few changes more than in the scope of EP7:

 

The Fingers are New

lower shin Armour is gone replaced with FO ankle cuff

Knee orientation is reversed in line with FO

Hand & Wrist Plates are now Groved border

TD is still present

left hip Belt bags replaced with Drop-boxes (same as right side)

also all the Armour (Thigh, bicep from what can be seen so far all has new curved closures different from TFA)

FYI, text is there as an optional accessory.   Does anyone have pictures of a Phasma TD that we can use?  They should look like this:
