You have to make a spoiler warning before showing production pics
Just wait to you see the helmet they actually used. It looks like a poorly cleaned up Rubies deluxe.

That Vader has no 'C' scar.
I'm outraged!
As per Star Wars lore, the C scar happens just moments before he entered the Tantive IV. Vader was picking at his breathing apparatus with a "space coat hanger" and missed his nose area, glancing his cheek and creating the infamous C scar. BOOM...mic drop.
It is, it just is a very very poor execution of it.
This is something I believe that all the more knowledgeable vader people will all agree on once they see it.
So they had Brian Muir (essentially) sculpt a cleaned up Rubies Deluxe?
And the R1 Vader is going to look nothing like the newly released artwork?

So is this official? :unsure

The artwork looks like the artist may have used a photo or illustrated with an actual eFX in front of him/her.
Did the bottom image actually come from a trailer? I couldn't find the source, but found another image in connection with it - it appears that this is a Reveal style and it's symmetrical:

However, the image comes from a wallpaper site and appears to be a photograph as opposed to a screen capture of a trailer.
Ah, found it.

It may be a fanmade and not connected with the production.
Cant wait for images to start showing up!
I gotta say though in some of the descriptions they mention the lights on the chest box being identical to ANH, but ANH Vader didnt have any light on his chest box. He did have the buttons and the coin slots but non of them lit up in ANH.
Juan...I've sent you 2 private messages......can you kindly respond to me please.
Out of pure naivety, what are the issues with the R1 Stormtroopers compared to ANH?
