OK here is a question what color do you think the highlights on the Stormtroopers will be? And what color do you think they should be? This is one of the common color missconceptions within Star Wars and I wonder if LEGO will get it right. Actually (...) (24 years ago, 23-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Wow - great trivia question. Midnight blue? Regarding Lego Stormtroopers, I'm wondering if they will have the Scout-Trooper goggle-faces or just a black head? My guess is that they will have the goggles, but I'd prefer plain black for use as (...) (24 years ago, 23-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I'm sure Lego will just make them black for ease of production, but most of the helmet treatments are a blueish-grey (bleudigris?) hahahaa! At least that's what my Don Post helmet shows. At the LucasFilm travelling show, the expansion joints (...) (24 years ago, 23-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Eric, I think they will be black, just like the scout troopers were white with black printing. You say black is the wrong color, but I don't see how it can be anything other than black. What is the "right" answer and where are you getting your (...) (24 years ago, 23-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Close enough. Stormtrooper highlights are indead a shade of dark Blue. That said I bet we get black with the LEGO Stormtrooper seeing they couldn't even get the color of the Falcon right. (...) Well looking at the low quality picture we have (...) (24 years ago, 23-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) At that scale, does it really matter if the color is a shade darker or lighter than it "should" be? Luke's eyes aren't dull LEGO brown, either, but it was close enough for minifigs. Are there any shots in Star Wars in which the highlights are (...) (24 years ago, 23-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I would hope that the helmet is solid... The Stormtroopers "visors" aren't inset like the scout troopers, or even the royal guards, they're more "bubbly" like Vader's. That said, the helmets need to be solid. I was hoping we'd get an AT-ST (...) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I have found a decent way to do an AT-ST pilot: Hoth Trooper torso, beige arms, black or brown hands, brown hips, beige legs, and a brown aviator cap with black goggles. Greg "On the boar of car" Majewski (URL) (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

Not bad, Greg. I 'd suggest using a dark gray aviator's cap if you have one. I think one comes with the Podrace set, so they're probably not all that common. ~Mark (24 years ago, 24-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Actually, that cap is light gray - it's used on Gasgano<SP?> the all white bugger with the cool head on an "accessory piece" body.:) As I recall, it's the same as the one Anakin gets with the Naboo fighter (or is that one actually brown? I (...) (24 years ago, 25-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)
