“The jet pack is implemented as part of the armor, which is a bit unique,” Burkert says. While the Mandalorian armor favored by Jango Fett and Boba Fett featured a jet pack, this version is actually part of the body armor sculpt. The specialized First Order jet trooper is a unique design that incorporates nods to original trilogy concept artist Ralph McQuarrie and the fearsome death troopers from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, says Madlyn Burkert, Lucasfilm’s collections and exhibitions archivist.
Equipped with a rocket pack and a slim and sleek new white helmet, the jet trooper from Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker has soared into D23 Expo 2019, the latest addition to Lucasfilm’s exhibit tracing the evolution of the iconic Star Wars soldiers.įans on the floor of the convention this weekend were among the first in the world to glimpse the screen-used armor, fresh off the set of the forthcoming film, alongside the Sith trooper and eight other production costumes spanning the different eras of the saga, which were first displayed at San Diego Comic-Con last month.
