Here’s a quick side by side in a Detolf. Lighting is a bit harsh so details are kinda washed out, but hopefully it helps.

Paint apps are definitely better, but was the helmet sculpt tweaked at all for this new release versus the original release?

In some pics it almost seems like it was, but in other pics it looks the same.

I thought the same thing.

If it was ... could be a better resolution on the eye ridges. The first sandtrooper was 'squinty' and either due to the mold or heavy paint apps, the ridges seemed too rounded.

The other thing that may have happened is the eye holes were simply made a bit larger.

If nothing was tweaked it could be an effect of the heavier weathering defining the features better.
 
Great opening shot. Exactly how it should look.

The mouth is now painted much darker/black as well, which seems to frame the face differently.
