‘Star Wars: Episode 7′ Reveals New Chrome Trooper

We've seen tons of leaked photos of 'Star Wars: Episode 7,' from Adam Driver in an unexpected uniform to new filming locations to the Millennium Falcon, but there's still plenty more over which to geek out. For example, a new image has been revealed that showcases a new breed of Stormtrooper, called a Chrome Trooper.

The site IndieRevolver.com, which may initially sound unreliable to movie fanatics but has proved itself with previous 'Star Wars: Episode 7' set pics, unveiled an image of this character, rumored to appear in the film for some time.

Stormtrooper, digivolve to Chrome Trooper! (That was a 'Digimon' reference for those thinking we've lost our marbles.)

Looking like a much more formal and metallic version of the original design, the Chrome Trooper does not wear a cloak as part of its official design (despite its depiction above), notes IndieRevolver. Instead, "the metal collar stands up from the torso armor and curves up on the sides before dipping down again at the back."

UPDATE: Another photo of the Chrome Trooper has surfaced, again on IndieRevolver.

While it's unclear how the Chrome Trooper will fit into the plot of 'Star Wars: Episode 7,' actor Oscar Isaac recently spoke to EW and revealed that there will be hundreds of Stormtroopers populating this world, and we know that the animated 'Star Wars Rebels' series will tease and possibly even feature some characters in 'Episode 7.' So, are you into the new Chrome look ... or do you prefer Safari? (Sorry, we had to.)

'Star Wars: Episode 7' will hit theaters on December 18, 2015.
