Revan Redeemed (SWTOR) approvable or not?

[Siebe]

hello everybody,

 

i am currently working on a Revan costume from Star Wars The Old Republic (the redeemed/foundry variant, not the 'Shadow of Revan' variant).

i had posted some progress pictures on my facebook page an one of them got a comment from my (Dutch) Garrison members.

he asked: user nr 1: ''Is the version you're working on approvable?'' (he means for the 501st).

some of the other members had answered him before i could, this is the discussion that broke out:

user nr 2: ''No ... there is only 1 CRL for Revan, the original KOTOR version ... maybe he can offer the first variation as CRL? ;)''

user nr 1: ''Could possibly. Would it?''
me: ''Well... this version is not approvable for the 501st because good guy and everything, but it is for rebel legion''
user nr 2: ''"Good guy" ... very subjective. In SWTOR he wants to commit genocide to all Pureblood Sith''

me: ''But he works for the republic and ''helps'' the jedi. Although I assume that Revan is more gray than light at that point. The only thing I know is that this version of Revan has not been approved by the 501st but approved by the RL''

''There are technically two different SWTOR Revans. One would be the light side and the other would be the dark side version from the recent Revan Expansion. Being that the Shadow of Revan is literally the embodiment of the Dark Side within Revan, I would say it is very much 501st.'' -The Flagship Eclipse''

user nr 3 (Dutch Garrison GML): ''Then I would build a build thread and see if you can comment on the DL''

user nr 4:''"I was Sith, I am Jedi" I think never is 501st worthy so, hippie Revan :p''

 

as you can see, there is some infighting, if you can call it that, within the Dutch Garrison about if the SWTOR redeemed/foundry variant is 501st approved. i thought i had done all my research and had found that this costume is ONLY approvable for rebel legion, but this conversation had left me more confused than before.

so my question is: is the SWTOR redeemed/foundry version of Revan also approvable for the 501st or only for RL?
(side question, just because i'm curious, is the SWTOR Revan mask (again, the redeemed/foundry variant, not the 'Shadow of Revan' variant) compatible with the KOTOR (501st approved) variant of Darth Revan?)

 

thanks in advance.

 

kind regards

Redeemed Revan would not be eligible for 501st, but yes for RL as he is a good guy at that point (chaotic good, but good, none the less). It is correct that the Shadow of Revan version, which is the embodiment of the Dark Side within Revan, WOULD be eligible. 

 

On the mask, no they would not be eligible for KOTOR as it is an entirely different design as seen below. The specifics are that the "nose" and "chin" areas are structurally different, and there is additional detail on the SWTOR version that is not on the KOTOR version in angles and cuts.
