This bandolier looks similar to the "ANH" bandolier, but has a longer, more curved taper, and no buttons or discs at either end. It's not clear if it ever appeared on screen or was just for publicity shots.

==== Revenge of the Sith bandolier ====
# In some early publicity photos for Revenge of the Sith, Peter Mayhew wore his new Revenge of the Sith costume with the Return of the Jedi bandolier, presumably because the new bandolier wasn't finished. GotWookiee used the RotJ bandolier as a point of reference in determining the dimensions of the RotS bandolier:
#* Main strap:
#** Width: 3"
#** Length: 1864mm
#** Thickness:
#** Width of seam: 1/3"
#** Distance from last ammo box to end: 112mm
#** Distance between ammo boxes: 42mm
#** Tapered ends:
#*** Width at end: 35mm
#*** Distance taper starts from end of bandolier: 42mm
#*** Radius of curve: 4mm
#** End loop:
#*** Length: 42mm
#*** Width: 35mm
#** Dark brown snaps: (2)
#*** Diameter: 14mm
#*** Distance from end of bandolier: 14.5mm
#* Center strap:
#** Width:  1"
#** Length: approx.
#** Thickness:
#** Width of seam: 1/3"
#** Loops (38)
#*** Width: 5mm
#*** Diameter: approx. 30mm
#*** Thickness:
#** Distance from end of strap to end of bandolier: 88mm
#** Taper starts: 9.5
#** Copper rivets: (2)
#*** Diameter: 1/3"
#*** Center distance from end of center strap: 9.5mm
# It is a dark brown color; darker than the pouch.
# There is no leather concho or disc, as on the original trilogy bandoliers.
# The center strap is held in place with leather loops, not rivets. These loops are placed at the base of every box, so there are two for each box.
# There is a rivet at the each end of the center strap.
