I have seen these, those two guys seem to be a cross between AT AT commanders and Sandtroopers, also the Imperial Officer is wearing a more combat orientated uniform:
which featured in this graphic novel:
Sadly I'm not sure what they're called and if they appear anywhere else.
What about General Veers:

Moff Jerjerrod, yes I have

I'm looking to convert my own Mauser to make a Merr Sonn power 5. I managed to get a cheap metal air soft pistol (G.12 Airsoft Gun), but I'm sure it's too small. Can someone please post a picture of an accurately sized Merr Sonn with a ruler so that I can comfirm the sizing of mine.
Thanks

That picture looks familiar

Good find. I'm sure they will go for a ridiculous price. I stopped bidding n this type and have resigned myself to not owning a real set.
It's all about luck and attention to detail.
This dosimeter charger was on evilBay, looking at the picture I thought hang on a minute is that something blue in the jam jar?
So I questioned the vendor, who had these (this was March this year):
(been wanting to share these pics for a while

Mines the numbers used for my date of birth, my usual set of numbers had sadly been taken.

I've bought some dosimeters with the cans. I'd guess the colour of the can may have a bearing on the colour of the tip. I have the correct style blue tip dosimeters with a blue can. My Cheif Bast style dosimeter can has a red rubber band on the can, which matches the red stripe on the dosimeter - there is no tip on the Chief Bast style dosimeter.

In my opinion every uniform should be modified - they should be all tailored to fit the individual. You get the best uniform in existence but it needs to fit you like a glove. There's nothing worse than an ill fitting uniform.

Those are amazing

Is Officer Evax canon? I thought he was created by Decipher for their card game and didn't actually appear in the film

I seem to be a sucker for punishment. This is the second officer I've picked and had to search for additional reference material. Only to find out it's not what I expected.
Whilst looking to see if Chief Bast definitely had vertical belt boxes - yes he does, I found an image which shows him with short gloves ... which is very unusual for Star Wars : A New Hope line officers.
Now, if you hadn't guessed, I'm very OCD and want to do things perfectly. What should I do here. Ignore them or use the same gloves as another officer - which one?
I'd like to get L3 cleared as Chief Bast, he's in quite a few scenes and I like the actor Leslie Schofield (especially the sideburns) ... but I may change Captain Khurgee, as the character is simpler ... but where's the fun in that

The model I dube as 4450 is based on a stamp on the bottom of the dosimeter. It's in a similar position to the number on the 6665 110003 model. I'll check the inside of the clip when I get home. I'm going to try and clean the '055' one up, as I've got my hands on three 6665-110101 'blue top' dosimeters
:) I wish I could get a clearer screen shot of Chief Bast. My screen shots have to be taken by photographing the TV. It's a bit more obvious on the actual screen. I agree that it could have been an artifact, it's awkward because you can only see that dosimeter in a couple of frames, so it's logical to assume they're paired.
I'm pleased you agree with my theory. After reading your thread, which I'd somehow missed I've learnt a bit and am pleased I'm on the right track.

Looking at the BluRay I'm more convinced, though it's not the sharpest of pictures. For clarification I'm questioning the code cylinder on the left of the picture.
-
I've got a 6665-110003 model, which you say was used by Tagge and Motti,
I've also got a 4450 model which looks very similar to the one in your which you say is Bast's ... though annoyingly its previous owner painted the clip a brass colour, and the top blue.
-
Sorry I used the wrong terminology. When I said Type A I meant Officer, when I said Type C I meant Officer Alternate. As per the CRL.
I'll check on the blurary for right cylinder.

I'm in the process of watching the original trilogy and noting the details for the officers (code cylinders, rank bars, etc).
Simple things I've noticed (others probably know this) are Line Officers have horizontal belt boxes and Staff Officers have vertical.
One thing I'd like confirmed is Chief Bast (played by Leslie Schofield). In the 501st CRL it says he has Type C Code Cylinders and not Type A - the more common of types.
I disagree with this. I believe Chief Bast has a Type A Code Cylinder in his right pocket, and a Type C in his left. I believe you can just see the blue of the Type A Code Cylinder if you look closely.
I ask this because I'm looking to produce a Chief Bast costume.

Kelldragon was recommended to me by one of the German Garrison.
After dealing with him I've got to say he's a great guy and I thoroughly recommend him. He did a briliant left handed DH17 holster, for my girlfriends Daine Jir costume.
I found his store in eBay.
-
I chose Lieutenant Sheckil, like Jeremy my main costume is Boba Fett, so when I can't Boba I troop as Sheckil.
My girlfriends officer is based on Commander Daine Jir, I chose this because he's the first officer you see on film, and he's one of the few officers to question Vader and live to tell the story.
I'd like to do a black uniformed officer, possibly Lieutenant Tanbris ... but I already have two other costumes in progress.
-
Golly, with that amount you could go for MuR..
It's annoying, whenever I've bought from MuR I've had to pay three times the listed price due to postage and customs charges. The only thing that stops me buying a MuR costume is that I think the neck isn't tall enough compared to the screen versions.
Sarah,
I see what you mean now, with the two costumes I've bought from them they were two large, it didn't occur to me they could be too small.
-
Have you tried going to somewhere that does professional alterations? Assuming the uniform is accurate other than size, you can try this. I've bought two officer costumes and had them altered, at the most £50 each.
I'm also in the UKG, I'd suggest asking Alexander Bunn (who's one of our Imperial Officer armourers) to have a look at it, He should be able to say whether the costume is salvageable. £400 seems a lot of money, I've a quote to get a tailor made Officer costume for around £500, but that's from the guy who works with Gok Wan (Stitchin Business).
-
Out of interest which is the staff officer costume
-
Regarding the belt boxes, the Museum Replicas belt boxes are very close, if not identical, to the original (with regards to Commander Daine Jir).
-
Great pics, I may use that as reference for my girlfriends clearance submission.
I'd spotted he had gauntlets, but I'm sure I wasn't the first. Though I think I was the first here to spot he had a holster. Have you any picks of him showing the holster, or even better the gun in the holster.
I was googling the Deleted Magic DVD last night, can you please PM the details where you got it, I'd love to get my hands on it.
