Who can make.. Mandalorian or Stormtrooper armor? I don't know anyone, but I always see communities of people who can. And I don't know how to do it but I would love some Mando armor customized to me. Just curious though, and wondering how much it would cost. I would prefer Mando armor, but Stormtrooper armor is great too if I ever decide to join the 501st dealy.  But again just curious. Not sure if I would have the money in coming days to pay for something like that but. who knows. |

I have found that if one watches ebay long enough, Mando Armor ALWAYS shows up. It'll be blank unpainted white, but painting isn't TOO hard to learn, and you can almost always redo a paint job if you have to. (I think... XD) Then just glue some Velcro to the back and bam, you're outfitted in Mando armor. Course, it usually sold in lots like: Chest and ab plates together, then back, then jetpack, then gauntlets, then shoulders and elbows, then knees, then boots, etc.... but it is out there and you can get it. Stormtrooper armor is a little tougher, I know you can buy the scout stuff from studiocreations, and various pieces of the armor crop up on ebay from time to time (PLEASE, I BEG YOU..... AVOID ANYTHING THAT SAYS LICENSED, RUBIES, or DELUXE. They aren't what you want. LOL), but whole suits are harder to come by and VERY pricey.

Yeah I understand that but I'd like a more custom set ya know? I'm of a shorter stature, first off, and secondly I don't really want like.. I dunno when you said glue some velcro on the back it sorta put me off. Glue velcro onto WHAT exactly? It just kinda.. something.

Yeah well I started on my Mando Armor project a while back. Unfortunately shortly after I spent a considerable amount of cash on it I found the beautiful world of Lightsabers I will finish it off some day though Just a warning, if you're planning on getting it done properly, it's going to cost you |

I believe Mando armor usually runs in the 1000-3000 range, depending on what you want.

it's hard enough to get insurance to pay for the wheelchairs that come from medical companies. i doubt they'd pay Toyota.....but as it is, my chair is pretty sweet so it's all good. it could use a lightsaber holder or a hidden compartment like R2-D2 had in RotJ though.  |

That would be awesome! Though no ejectors. That would... be.. uhm. dangerous No need to shoot a lightsaber hilt into your ceiling at 90 mph |
