The Force Unleashed Stormtroopers
Well, we now know for sure that the image from 4-inches.de of the painted Stormtrooper wasn’t a fake and I was completely right about him being from The Force Unleashed. In your face… whoever! Rebelscum.com recently revealed two more Stormtroopers with the addition to the one we’ve already seen.

According to Reblescum, one of them is a Shadowtrooper (blech), and another is a Stormtrooper Commander from Felucia. There is no news on who the other two are yet, but my bet is on the Expanded Universe’s 501st Stormtrooper and the Emperor’s Shocktrooper.
Now here’s where I get pissed. If the Emperor supposedly had a legion of his “best” troops on Endor, then why in the hell did we never see any red or blue ones? Perhaps he was just psyching Luke out knowing full well he only had his retard troops on the moon and the rest were off on some other mission. And if the Stormtroopers ever painted the armor of commanders differently than the rest of the troops they commanded, that’s one hell of a bullseye for any Rebel trooper looking to score a high profile target.
Anyway, be sure to head on over to Reblescum.com to see the full photo in all of it’s glorious bigness of glory.

Tsk. There you go again, talking sense.
Just you watch, they’ll “fan-justify” their way out of this mess somehow. Never underestimate the power of the EU retcon. =D

Dammit. They should just released a special edition white stormtrooper with paint kit. That’ll settle the re-paint issue.
While we’re at that, might as well, release an astromech with paint kit special ed as well.
