Stormtrooper Oddities

Perhaps someone could put together a stormtrooper based on all of the mistakes seen in pictures on this thread, it would sort of be screen accurate wouldn't it? :lol

Is this the Chronicles pic?  His hand plates are on the wrong hands.

And I didn't know that Billy Corgan played a Stormtrooper.  :p

Here's another little sort of oddity..

If I can borrow Dirtydave's screengrabs you can see here (crudely circled in red) the trimmed groin section to allow the stunt guy better movement... and safeguard his ability to potentially father children in the future. :p

The untrimmed groins are more like this..

And where did Han and Luke put their clothes?  When they get out of the trash compactor and take off the trooper suits, they are back in their clothes.  Were they wearing these UNDER the body suit and trooper armor? Han's vest/BLACK RIDING BOOTS/Luke's Karate shirt/denim pants/and strap boots???...

Actually, my friends and I have speculated on the most reasonable reson for this. Though I admit, it is a stretch, we believe that they ARE wearing their clothers under the armor though they didn't have room for their gun/utility belts, hence when thet take off the armor they're both wearing stormtrooper belts and Han doesen't have his holster and blaster which was all left back at the Falcon (presumably because they couldn't get the armor on over them)

Okay, but now explain how they wore stormtrooper BOOTS over THEIR BOOTS. Ah-HA. Now that one has no explanation.
 
Sure there's an explaination. They got lucky enough to knock out two troopers with exceptionally large feet.
Come on. It's a movie. We have to be able to suspend belief to SOME degree to make movies a little more enjoyable. :p
 
Mr. No-Stripes in two more scenes. This guy gets around.

Not only has he lost his stripes, but his right lower leg as well. He's quite the talented one. :D
 
Wow, you can really see the color difference between the ABS armor and the painted HDPE helmets in those last two pics.
 
I wonder if Mr No-Stripes will one day have the same cult following as Mos Eisley Wandering Everywhere Background Guy and Bespin Cloud City Ice Cream Machine Carrying Refugee Guy.
