The Imperial Stormtrooper wears one of the most iconic, intimidating sets of armor in the history of fiction, so any attempt at redesign could be potentially disastrous. That said, these images (one leaked, the other two obtained by Indie Revolver) suggest a more streamlined, functional design that’s also aesthetically very cool. Check it out.
First, the leaked photo of an actual helmet:
And two pieces of concept art. The second shows something called a “Jungle trooper.”
No word on how the new design will affect their notoriously shitty aim.
Thanks to Ain’t it Cool for the heads up.
