    Movie magic baby. Movie magic. Seriously though, they nailed the look.

    Is it me or are they really trying to make the bad guys like Vader (Ren), Tarkin (Hux) and Fett (Phasma). With Palpy (Snoke) pulling the strings.

    They do a good job of only revealing what we saw in leaks

    That or it is a lighting reference sculpt for the CG peeps to match the digital Maz with the scene

    EDIT: after seeing a closer look in a post below I'm going with a static background puppet based on the unused Maz concept(doh--didnt remember we've seen her already and she looks nothing like that too :p)

    Yes, but is he following in the steps of his dad from Epi III and ROTJ or has he embraced Obi Wans look?

    I want to bring attention to this screenshot as I believe it gives credibility to a recent 4chan post:
    [​IMG]

    Notice the software being used, it's called FaceShift. It's used to do a very basic mocap using a stereo camera (seen above the computer screen). The mocap data can then be remapped in realtime on any type of different character. This data is then used to control the animatronic.
    This is the 4chan info dump I'm referring to that described this technique being used:

    Maybe, in that reel trailer Mark did say that they have restored everything from sets, costumes etc to their original look so maybe Anakin Obi Wan's presence maybe seen in Luke's

    That's interesting, but the 4chan guy also said Gleeson is named "Major General Tarkin," which now causes problems for his credibility.
