So I found the Imperial Troop Transporter from issue #31 (US) and it's most definitely not the story nor the artwork I remember!

Here's a scan-

in the story I remember the Transporter was slightly modified (by artistic license) and IIRC the stormtroopers were sat along a "bench" on the side of the vehicle rather than pods. And they are chatting without their helmets on ... no idea if they were on Tatooine or not.

 

man, i have to find it now to make sure i didn't imagine it! just to complicate matters the US and UK Marvel issues numbers are totally different, and it's possible the UK version was printed weeks, months, or years after the US. I'm fairly certain there was no UK exclusive strips.

 

(and sorry to derail the thread a little ...)
