Hahaha, yeah total whoosh. šŸ˜‚ I knew I read it on the threads somewhere recently, of course it was the OP. My bad.

To give George the benefit of the doubt, I’m assuming he meant that either A) his ST stormtroopers would look quite different from OT stormtroopers and/or B) the stormtroopers wouldn’t be the primary enemy grunts of the ST.

I have to say I did like this description of these stormtroopers. Imagine some remnant faction using stormtrooper that is basically pieced together over the years. Couldn’t been pretty smart a merchandising and costuming perspective. Think of how devoted the 501st are. Imagine if they introduced these ā€œrebelā€ stormtroopers that uses bits and pieces from different kits, worn out and dirty, personalized. Could’ve been a cool contrast to how they were presented in the OT. You see the evolution of the stormtrooper between the PT and OT, and then we could’ve seen their regression between the OT and ST. The aesthetic potential is one thing edits can’t fix unfortunately.
