The Mandalorian saw its first release on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray this week and Comicbook.com have shared a first glimpse at a costuming featurette included exclusively on the release, featuring the late, great Shawna Trpcic.
In it, the late Shawna Trpcic reveals the care she and her team took to pay tribute to the Star Wars franchise’s original trilogy. You can see the clip above.”With the New Republic uniforms, we wanted to make sure we were tapping into the foundation of what these were built on,” Trpcic said. “We used the same fabrics, the same wools that were used in the original trilogy. [The uniforms] have a little bit of the characteristics of the Empire so you don’t really know if these guys are the good guys or the bad guys.”
She added, “A lot of the helmets were established in the original trilogy. What we did was we went back to Skywalker Ranch and we gathered as many notes as we could. We came back here and I had crew sculpt [the helmet] in clay rather than do a 3D print because I wanted to get some of that handmade detail that would have been in the original trilogy.”
