touchtapgo actually, mark hamil was about 4-5 inches taller than a stormtrooper, which is like 5’5-5’6. The reason why they were so short was so Vader could look even more intimidating.
it was orginally a light saber then a thermal detonator then it was a sheild btw the o and II were once jokenly refered to as an emergency donut and twinkies..
+Anugerah Ardiansyah you can actually see quite well, as long as it's not very short and at point blank range, because it cuts pretty much all visibility for stuff below you. Beyond that it's quite fine.
+Anugerah Ardiansyah I got the joke, just added a more serious reply to it :) you can indeed see quite well, despite the old "stormtroopers can't hit anything" joke from the movies. I remember some guys tried to retcon that stormtroopers where actually missing on purpose so they could let han, leia and luke escape, in an attempt to find the rebel base. Since princess leia hint it was "way too easy to escape the death star". Of course in real life, you whouldn't be able to fight using that helmet :D
Omega Zultron She was bipolar. Whilst it wasn't exactly the best idea to do drugs, it helped her through it. Then, later in her life, she recovered from her drug issues and played an essential role in normalising mental illnesses, and was an all round awesome person.
Snowtroopers do exist, but if you want a really accurate design, you'll have to find one through the 501st Legion. Sign up at your local Garrison today to find out more!

Imagine this armor painted with airbrush for a little weathering and the backarmor actually having a correct coloring and details on the radio. And is it it just me or doesn't the pecks on the armor look weird and boob like?
Just took delivery of my Original Stormtrooper Armor kit. Wow, what an amazing set of Stormtrooper armor. It was amazingly well packed, and everything fit very well. The manual doesn't look like the spiral bound one shown by Linus, quite a bit thinner version. Your video & evaluation definitely helped me make my decision to buy from these guys. Only complication was the fact they do not sell or ship to the States for some reason, so I purchased in Canadian dollars and shipped to a buddy up there who then brought it across the border for me. Strange... And yes Linus, I also wish I was about 4" taller! 😄 Overall, a very good experience with the crew at Shepperton Design Studios.
mine arrived today. You cant see shit . you cant move in it. you cant bend. 10/10 I have cuts on my hands but next time ill have friends help me put it on :P
Eh it's more likely that they were doing the same thing that real soldiers do, in where they do not like to shoot civilians, that is why in war they try to dehumanise the opposing party because no one want to shoot another man, but if you can stop them from being a man they are more likely to shoot. They troopers were happy to gun down the uniformed rebels whom all looked the same and were dehumanised, but when they saw a young boy, a young girl, and some guy in a waistcoat, well they saw them as people so missed deliberately. When questioned about it many soldiers in the real world admit to this. In fact in firing squads most of them have blanks and there is only a couple of real bullets, this si so that when they think about it they can say "I probably didn't have the bullet" this allows them to disolve themselves of the guilt.
Jordan Stocker Kinda, but as per the clone uprising, after which Palpatine commissioned the creation of a new clone army which wasn't as skilled or as physically capable. As evidenced by the original clone uprising, indoctrination only goes so far. Generally it is incredibly difficult if not nearly impossible to create a level of indoctrination so deep that it over rides base instinct. Also by the point of the original trilogy Stormtroopers weren't only clones, they were also human recruits from different planets, the number and rate at which they could create clones was severely disrupted after the clone uprising which was partly caused by a Kaminoans covert rebellion against the empire.
Bought a new laptop, only instructions were 1) insert battery 2) plug in laptop 3) turn on laptop I liked reading instructions. Now we don't even get a feature list :(
Not to be THAT guy but the original designer was Brian Muir not Aaron Ainsworth. His armor pieces are recasting of the 3rd gen Empire strikes back stunts modified to look like A New Hope heroes. I'm not sure about now but for a while he wasn't allowed to ship to the US due to legal issues with Lucasfilm. Being a member of the 501st I was told to stay clear of this guy, there are much better looking options for a much lower price than this guy is asking for.
No, Brian Muir was involved with modelling (most famously the Vader mask) but the person who made the original model for the Stormtrooper helmet was a lady - can't recall her name. Ainsworth just pulled some plastic. There have been some big lawsuits involved and a lot of detail came out as a result.
It's a nation wide cosplay group. They go to a lot of events as stormtroopers. They get asked to do movie premiers, charity functions for kids and some disney stuff
Her name was Liz Moore, Ainsworth would have you believe that 'He alone' developed the suits , from concept to finished 'armour'.. have a look on the web for 'the darkside of SDS', the truth is out there, The 501st are a costuming group set up by Albin Johnson, they wear costumes from Star Wars to raise money for sick children, George Lucas celebrated the work that they do by naming the onscreen clones that go with Anakin into the jedi temple... (the revenge of the sith)... as the 501st legion 'Vader's Fist'. www.starwars.com/news/contributor/ajohnson
Thanks for that, it's been a while since I looked at the whole debacle. Remaining mindful that this has already been the subject of court cases, the model has been attributed to Nick Pemberton by the courts, with recognition that Ainsworth made some changes when he was producing them. This was largely influenced by an old photo showing Lucas and the model in terracotta (Pemberton) rather than grey (Moore). However, more recently, people have applied colour correction to the photo (based on other known colour references) and guess what... the model appears to be made with grey clay (Moore)!
I loooved reading the Halo game manuals. They listed every weapon, vehicle, enemy and ally. I wish they still did this, I would actually go back to buying physical copies.
Imagine installing an Intel NUC on the back of this, and wire it to a small hologram projector or something on your wrist... "Please Obi Wan Kenobi, you're my only help." Or wait, that's the Rebels :) You could have a hologram Emperor in front of you while speaking to him on Skype :)

Shouldn't the red be on left (port), and the green on the right (starboard)? It seems a bit... off. It's reversed. Stormtroopers appear in space vessels, which would take a nod to Navy vessels. Therefore, red=left, green=right. Since the person putting on the suit will always be facing forward in his/her own eyes, he/she is always at the helm, facing fore. Therefore, red=left, green=right. I dunno, I'm just bored. Love the channel.
Members do have SDS armour though it is frowned upon due to legal actions between LFL and SDS aka Andrew Ainsworth, so in a way yes your right. Brain Muir, Liz Moore sculpted and designed the armour and helmet ,fabrication into plastic was down to Andrew Ainsworth- you can't wear a lump of sculpted clay. The controversy comes from the truth as to whether he still has the original moulds, which is disputed! If you have SDS armour and want 501st membership then I think you will be at the back of the que just ahead of rubies!
Getting the original sound effect for a blaster is easy. Just tap something metal on a tentioned steel cable (can normally be found on zip wires in play parks (not the actuall wire, but conected from the top of an end to the ground)) as that is what was used for the films.
The originals in the films were slightly asymmetrical. And considering they are made by the original designer I would imagine they are trying to exactly replicate what they looked like in the 70's.
Seeing this guy put on storm trooper armour gave me a flashback when I used to mix and match G.I. Joe action figures putting the legs on another's midsection I used to put Han Solo head and legs mixed with a storm trooper chest piece.
This is fantastic, Linus Tech Tips. Thank you for sharing with the world your enjoying of Star Wars and great collectors costumes. This has been a thrill to watch. Take care, all of you at Linus' media group!
the17kyd the guy can't make the clones. He would get a copyright infringement and, not to mention, there is no original mold because all the clones were cgi creations, not people.
This is an excellent promotion by Original Stormtrooper. Linus Tech did a perfect job on demonstrating the kit and looking at the pros & cons as well as the options. Just found out that Original Stormtrooper are now offering an instalment plan. I'm in. Well once I pay off the credit card.
Umm this is great and all but I just went to their site and they seem to ship EVERYWHERE but the US. I added a full suit of the Shadow Trooper armor, the E11, neck seal, and the E11 holster went to check out and no option to ship to the US. Thank you Linus for getting my hopes up. Edit: After reading through the site this guy is actually copyright infringing which is why they cannot ship to the US. Next time Linus you might want to mention this IN YOUR VIDEO before anything else.
***** Canada is looking more and more like a safe AND fun bet. Once you get used to being buried in snow in winter, that is. :s But hey! Don't have to worry about super-cooling your PC when your can put it in your freezer of a garage. XD
***** No one said that the US was the most important place in the world its just that its the only place they don't ship to get a grip and grow up. I was mainly stating the fact that since the US is the ONLY place they don't ship to would have been worth a mention.
Seems that red and right both start with an R so this probably makes sense to most people. Most people aren't sailors and have never had the chance to go sailing...
g brown I'm not a sailor myself, I'm a pilot. I just assumed it was common knowledge, but it's nitpicking nonetheless and completely not an issue. Just an observation I made.

Linus, Luke was pretty short for a Stormtrooper too.
touchtapgo actually, mark hamil was about 4-5 inches taller than a stormtrooper, which is like 5’5-5’6. The reason why they were so short was so Vader could look even more intimidating.
its a star wars quote

Actually, there's Two Lukes
wait, that's a thermal detonator canister? I always thought it was emergency tiolet paper
hahahahaha.. :'D
Makes sense.
it was orginally a light saber then a thermal detonator then it was a sheild btw the o and II were once jokenly refered to as an emergency donut and twinkies..
lol, could make sense in a pandemic
You can use it for either
10:26 "So my boss showed up at my house in full limited edition signed stormtrooper wear and threw a snowball at me, how was your weekend?"
The helmet looked a little asymmetrical.
i think it's the shoulder straps being different length/tightness
2:29 ,its just the thing to hold the head who make it wobbly
6:46 - 7:33 the chest piece is crooked
Yeah you right,its just asymmetrical
The props and armor they used in the movies was also asymmetrical and this set of armor is screen accurate which is why it's asymmetrical
playing FPS games while wearing this. can't shoot any enemy...
If I get the money for one of these I am going to try to play Battlefront as the empire with it on :D

or it will end up on ebay.
there must be a lot of storm trooper armour out there somewhere, judging on how many extras there where of storm troopers in the movies
Ahriman lots of the extras were animated though :(
Zone Shot The clones were all animated. Stormtroopers were nearly all real costumes, sometimes matte paintings
There were only 106 sets of Stormtrooper armor made for the entire original trilogy. Don't know and don't care how many were made after that.

If it doesn’t, it’s fake.
No just the helmet, it does offer as much protection as paper. just like the real one
not gonna lie the helmet looks mishapen or been warped
Callum Uchiha His head, he said he got it big.
it's because they use the original molds. If you watch the original movie, all of the helmets are uniquely mishapen.
Callum Uchiha h
The right eye looks longer than the left. Hm. Maybe this armor isn't the best.
Callum Uchiha so just like episode 4
Got clone armour aswell? Because I think the clones are awesome.
wouldnt look like in the movie because they dont used real armour in the New movies

That is one short Stormtrooper XD
...just realized how difficult it will be to go the bathroom with that suit. He need to take out everything
I don’t think I’ve ever willingly watched a 10 minute ad and thoroughly enjoyed it
Just so you know the stormtroopers are amazing shots.. But they were told to miss to allow luke and leia to escape
Eh it's more likely that they were doing the same thing that real soldiers do, in where they do not like to shoot civilians, that is why in war they try to dehumanise the opposing party because no one want to shoot another man, but if you can stop them from being a man they are more likely to shoot.
They troopers were happy to gun down the uniformed rebels whom all looked the same and were dehumanised, but when they saw a young boy, a young girl, and some guy in a waistcoat, well they saw them as people so missed deliberately.

In fact in firing squads most of them have blanks and there is only a couple of real bullets, this si so that when they think about it they can say "I probably didn't have the bullet" this allows them to disolve themselves of the guilt.

Give it to me! GIVE IT TO ME NOW!
Correction this is not the closest you can get to a screen accurate armor. You can get a more screen accurate armor for much less.
where? done? ou?
Akira Kimura where from what site?
www.anovos.com/
or join www.whitearmor.net/forum/
Akira Kimura But this armor was made from the original guy that made them for the movie in 1977. how can you get closer than that?
Go to whitearmor.net there's a thread that answers that

Suit up! It's gonna be legen... wait for it... DARY!
This is an excellent promotion by Original Stormtrooper. Linus Tech did a perfect job on demonstrating the kit and looking at the pros & cons as well as the options. Just found out that Original Stormtrooper are now offering an instalment plan. I'm in. Well once I pay off the credit card.
Umm this is great and all but I just went to their site and they seem to ship EVERYWHERE but the US. I added a full suit of the Shadow Trooper armor, the E11, neck seal, and the E11 holster went to check out and no option to ship to the US. Thank you Linus for getting my hopes up. Edit: After reading through the site this guy is actually copyright infringing which is why they cannot ship to the US. Next time Linus you might want to mention this IN YOUR VIDEO before anything else.
***** Canada is looking more and more like a safe AND fun bet.
Once you get used to being buried in snow in winter, that is. :s But hey! Don't have to worry about super-cooling your PC when your can put it in your freezer of a garage. XD
***** No one said that the US was the most important place in the world its just that its the only place they don't ship to get a grip and grow up. I was mainly stating the fact that since the US is the ONLY place they don't ship to would have been worth a mention.
at least you wont hit your head on the doorway
I would join the army if they started using stormtrooper armour
You Look Fabulous
Dam, I'm 6Ft 4 in & 251lbs.
No armor for me.
Same :(
except add an inch and subtract 100 lbs
Aren't you a little tall to be a stormtrooper ?
thereaIkatsketch THIS GUY!
fuck, that made my day.
The last take is so funny XD Subscribed !
Wouldn't it be smarter to have red on the left and green on the right to distinguish between left and right?
Port and Starboard.
Completely trivial and a non issue, but it kept nagging at me when watching
Seems that red and right both start with an R so this probably makes sense to most people. Most people aren't sailors and have never had the chance to go sailing...
g brown I'm not a sailor myself, I'm a pilot. I just assumed it was common knowledge, but it's nitpicking nonetheless and completely not an issue. Just an observation I made.
