    So, I studied the recently appeared information on wikipedia about episode 12. In the article, in the list of appearances, as well as in the article by Ferrix garrison and in the description of the plot of the series, they are marked as army troopers. Thoughts? However, I expect to see more information in the future.

    The Imperial Army wears green/grey, so the folks on Aldhani would be the army troopers. It might be appropriate to call the black-uniformed ones Imperial Security Troopers?

    I'm going to respectfully disagree with this. We see tem working directly for the ISB during the torture scenes, bringing the prisoners in and out. They are providing security at the CorpSec officer when they kicked everyone else. This means dedicated ISB security forces to me. 

    I agree. My understanding is that the Imperial Security Services fall under the ISB umbrella; they do the fieldwork while ISB stays in the office.

    As for the armored guys, they seem like enlisted personnel, while the officers are, well, officers.

  3. More research! I found this picture of an (out of focus) INT and ISS Officer from Solo. Edited the brightness...

    Interestingly, I think the officer on the right is wearing an INT tunic! And if I squint real hard, I think I can make out some rectangular top stitching on the left trooper's tunic, emulating the fabric strip sewn onto the ones in ANH.

     

    Does anyone have a higher quality version of this picture?

  4. I received my cup from Amazon today. Interestingly, it resembles the "Open Tip" version, with sharper indents and a smaller lip. I guess it depends on the production batch?

    Shame, as the softer indent version seems to be the one seen on screen. :-?

     

    After holding the cup in hand, I estimate the silver strip measures 3/4" x 4". Since the strip appears to have an edge, I bought a 3/4" x 12" steel strip that's 0.025" thick. I plan to JB weld it onto the cup when it arrives.

     

    Will keep you guys posted!

    @chicken45 @buckrogersbarkerAfter reviewing  this several times, I think that I found the adequate picture and we were correct. Look  at this one. It goes to the shoulder. 

     

    According to Glyn Dillon (costume designer for R1), this guy isn't an INT. He is a Security Services officer who borrowed an INT helmet.

     

    While combing through Solo: ASWS, I found this guy in a deleted scene:

    Although the quality isn't great, I think it shows the tunic is different.

    It appears they have a unique tunic similar (but not identical) to the ANH version. 

    Do we know what exactly the differences are? It's just the color (black instead of NYPD navy) and the lack of the modesty panel on the collar, right?

     

    I sure wish we had better references for these guys.

  7. If I may, I have two suggestions for the IN Dress CRL:

    - I feel that the code cylinders and rank bar should be optional items, as we only see them on the Scarif shield gate operator. They are absent from the other INs we see in RO.

    - Perhaps there could be a Version 2 tab with jodhpurs, riding boots, and a DH-17? (this configuration was seen in Kenobi)

     

    Otherwise, outstanding work!
