it was found ( not by me ) to be part of a ammo transport box http://global.rakuten.com/en/store/revolut1/item/ymm60564

From being up close to the armour I agree with kalkamel, they appear very, very similar to the TFA troopers i.e. gaskets.

geordietrooper, thanks for the clarification. That's going to be harder to source than popping down the local garden centre and doing some begging / scrounging
As stated, the top compartment is actually a plastic norwegian ammo box, grenade box to be more specific! But these are pretty common and sell for around $20 :cool

I know the purists are aghast, but I like the upgraded, modern interpretation... I would buy an Anovos or (god forbid) an eFX of this bucket. It definitely looks like this 8-year old in 1977 thought it would have looked like up close when seeing it on the big screen... man, how I had to fight to see a PG movie at that age... sheesh...

Hi,
a few shots of the Krennic costume in the album below. A difficult costume to get sharp details due to the lighting and the glass. A few may be useful.

I'll be honest I'm not sure I have much to contribute to the discussion here but I absolutely loved the Rogue One costumes & props at Celebration, I felt like they were all spot on, perfect ANH era look
I'm no expert & it wasn't until I was right next to the Stormtroopers that I even noticed the subtle changes to the armour & helmet, I liked them I think they make total sense whilst retaining the classic ANH Stormtrooper look to all but the most observant viewers. I'd love to have one of these new helmets, the cut out stripes look really good to me
For all the smartening up of the Stormtrooper Armour itself I enjoyed how rough & ready the casting of the E11 blasters actually looked up close (very OT)
I also liked how the Death Trooper & Shore Trooper blasters were basically variant E11's
I also though it was very nice that they've used the SE-14 blaster as the Death Trooper sidearm, they didn't need to do that it was a cool touch to re-use the design
I think the designers & builders on this have paid real respect & attention to the original films in making the costumes & props fit
things have been pretty quiet for me prop wise this year, I enjoyed TFA but for some reason it didn't fire me up to build & paint props but Rogue one is making me want to build & collect again.

Best attempts at the SWCE RO Rebel costumes. A real pig to get anything clear, but may be some useful bits for some of you.
Album can be found at http://s1146.photobucket.com/user/Ian_Reach/library/SWCE - RO - Rebels - Edit?sort=3&page=1
One thing i noted was the bag on the right hip of Baze appears to be a gas mask bag? Although i have only judged that by the bag closure clasp.

That makes sense because I was going to say that backpack looked like it was for rockets or mortar rounds or something.
Those new characters are awesome I already started sculpting shadow trooper couldn't resist. 
I had a closer look at this ribbed stuff and it is definately fabric...NOT rubber, as you can see the stitching and where they hemmed the ends. think of the shiny stuff many people use for the TK neckseals, that would come close IMHO (lycra?)

Hi OdiWan72,
many of the 'ribbed' components of the deathtrooper i did assume where the same type of gasket material similar to that used on TFA troopers. However, when looking again at some of the pics posted, then one can see stitching detail for various components - so no longer sure about the gasket material for many parts. Although some parts such components of the belt did appear to be rubber gasket material-like.
The new stormtroopers had stitched ribbed undersuits - certainly for the visible joint areas such as elbows and back of knee etc. This was even more apparent on the shoretroopers, although interestingly the chest and back armour also had a neoprene component running below the plates and over the shoulder, overlaying the stitched ribbed undersuit.

Thanks for your reply, I'll have a hunt for it [emoji4]
Wouldn't it be great if it was this stuff?! Cheap and easy to work with.

Looks like they used real dosimeters on Krennic's costume
