    Or Lucasfilm and Disney have suddenly developed a fetish for cool jackets.

    By the way: what sort of helmets are the ones on the left and right? Is the left one the rumoured 'death trooper'. Is the one on the right an imperial helmet?

    The helmet on the right looks like it goes with the costume with the red armour plate round the neck.

    I'd be pretty confident to say that the black ones COUD be death troopers because the rumors I think I head were of them being black and the one on the right has a strange logo on it for it to be imperial but maybe it's a modified biker scout helmet for the rebels to use (?)

    It'll be interesting to see the Death Troopers on-film. I don't believe that that's happened before.

    I like that when I play the shadow trooper in Battlefront you can often see the panic in the movement of the opposing players because they know there is a level 50 try-hard coming in. The same when someone play's with Darth Vader of Luke. Most enemy players run away from these superheroes, but there are always one or two players who have the courage to face them head on. Often foolishly. I hope to see a similar dynamic in the movie. See rebels run in terror from Darth Vader and his Death Troopers.

    Yeah I thought that too, so the long haired Rebel gets a bucket head?

    I'm surprised there aren't more of the white helmet guys from Leia's ship at the beginning of ANH.

    Says here it's just a variation. You may be thinking of the Honor Guard.

    My suspicion is that they went with something more Hoth-like because that's as iconic as the white helmets but more distinguishable at a distance from Imperial silhouettes.

    yeah it is like a combination between modern russian bdu, rebel commandos and Hoth rebels. The rebel uniforms from A New Hope is also very impractical. No soldier would wear such a uniform in combat, nor would they wear that clumsy helmet.

    Oh not in our world, but they absolutely do wear that sort of stuff in the Galaxy Far, Far Away. Heck, even the Empire has gunners on the DS that wear something that appears to make it impossible to even look down at the controls for firing their big gun.

    There are reports by the way that these guys return in Rogue One and that Felicity Jones' is disguished as one. Apparently there is an action figure being made.

    Oh crap, I just realized I'm probably going to want all the figures from this movie too. Hopefully they won't feel like they need to be as secretive about them as TFA. Still waiting on a Luke from that one.

    Removable helmet Felicity as a DS Gunner? I'll take two please.
