Not totally different - the brown neck supposedly shows on the TIE pilot

the impression of an environmental suit.

Hmm.  If that's true (and I'm not saying it isn't, I don't have the figs, no
matter how much I wish I did), I have two main questions:

1) Why does the Stormtrooper have a yellow head instead of a black or white
one?  Wouldn't yellow peeking out of the Stormtrooper's armor spoil the effect
in the same way?  It must show just as much- after all, the figs are made of
the same pieces, just in different colors.

The helmets are the same!?!  If that is true it really sucks. <sigh>

2) Why not just make a black head again?

Actually, even if it *is* true that they show through, these are good
questions.

(...) The URL is posted in .starwars and .year.2001 (don't have it handy) for scans of the pieces--they're big enough to tell that they're the same, just different colours and printing. LFB (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.general)
