Light sabers aside, the weapon’s choice is not consistent with good guys/bad guys (and biker scout’s V-twin engine neither…)
Good try though. -

Not impressed. It completely loses the Star Wars feel, which already had a little WWII in it already.
It has no soul. Search your feelings - you know it to be true.

So, replace Star Wars Stormtroopers with the Nazi Stormtroopers they were directly based on?

What a clever idea, and well executed, imo (though I must say I’m unclear as to why Chewie would be wearing clothes back in WWII - more uptight ‘decency standards’ at the time, perhaps?). I love that Luke’s lightsaber is plugged into that power pack on his back, that was a neat little touch … sure hope he can unplug it to use it, though!

I think that the translation of Star Wars into other eras and/or cultural influences (i.e. 1942, samurai, etc.) speaks to the archetypal strength of the characters and mythic basis of the story.
