...had the square lights lit up.....NOW is it Canon :) Seriously, Im guessing that was a fan suit. Anybody know where they got the Imperials for this?

That was a GT chestbox and the paint scheme on Vader's face was reversed like on the Don Post Deluxe. ...

Now THAT points to it probably being an official tour suite, since in 1997 I have seen official costumes with DP Deluxe helmets.

Vader looked like the regular Vader promotional costume........lots of inaccuracies.......too many to list.

Troopers were a mixed bag of typical 501st attire. Some GF, some GT style suits.

Chewie was pretty good but the hair was so fluffed out on the sides it was hard to tell his head wasn't larger than his body.

R2 was the best of the bunch..........of course it's pretty hard to mess up R2 considering the R2 builders group nowadays!!!

i'm just amazed the stormtroopers got down those stair without looking down......or falling down:lol, wonder how many times they rehearsed that
 
Yeah, I laughed at the Trooper walk; after seeing them in action on the steps at the Franklin Institute I knew what to expect as they had to go up and then down the stage. I've gotta say, they did a really good job on it too! :thumbsup
 
According to the SoCal guys, They came down the steps in ONE take.

They were amazed that no-one fell.
 
I can't believe I missed it. Maybe it will be repeated soon. Or worst case I could see if it is online.
 
It was pretty cool....although even my wife, who is blissfully ignorant of all things SW, noticed how bad the Vader costume was. First thing she noticed was how short the helmet was..."That doesn't look like the one you have!"...that's my girl! ;)
 
What? No mention of the 20 silicone filled slave Leias? What's wrong with you guys?

Yeah, the Vader was so-so. Was the Chewbacca a DLX costume? Never saw one in person.

R2 definitely was the best. Lots of cheesiness all around.

R2 was by Correllian Exports - a native of these parts! :)

No Editing on the walk down Scott.
as Cris said, we did that in one take
Most of the whole show was done on the first take With a few pick up shots thrown in

We were forced to slow it down, the steps are 3 short , 1 long
that makes it very difficult.

Just about all the TK's were FX suits & buckets
there were a few ANH helmets by Kevin , but they were on the smaller troopers & the girls

Since I was actually there, my response isn't conjecture.
