  • Exactly what the title says folks! I have a $10 outfit, and I compare it to the $1,300 outfit. Which one is more cost effective?
    I purchased the $10 outfit from amazon.com.
    The $1,300 outfit is from www.jedirobeame... (purchased in March of 2017)
    Have any questions that I didn't cover in the review?
    Feel free to comment!
    Thanks for watching, and don't forget to like and subscribe!
    I would also like to thank RyanTurner for his help filming and helping me get the costume on.

    That $1300 kit from Jedi Robe is unfortunately pretty low quality and way over-priced. You can get an accurate, movie-quality Stormtrooper kit from any of the vetted vendors listed on whitearmor.net, and at about half the price as this one if you are willing to put the armor together.

    • @ClexBennett
      @ClexBennett  6 років тому +15

      That is a great website for browsing different types of armor, I will say though that buying through jedirobe was easy, and I didn't receive a kit. Everything was already done for me. I appreciate the heads up!

    • @Vulkanprimarch
      @Vulkanprimarch 6 років тому +16

      Imagine paying $1300 for an unapprovable suit that would need that much work. And yes he might not give a shit about 501st approval, but still that low quality and uncomfortable AND HOT. Should have done some research.

    • @Vulkanprimarch

      @Alex Manton Go look up on etsy.com There are vendors that make all different sorts of armour on there. I haven't bought one myself but 850 armour works comes recommended as a store on etsy. Also get on the website whitearmor.net for information and to find info on joining the 501st if you want.

    The only thing on the Trooper armors what bothers me a bit is the clonky noises when you move. A good idea to make them sound a bit more solid is a thin layer of foam (1-2mm) underneath each part and it sounds a lot more realistic, quieter and solid.

    Ya could always just buy more accurate armor parts over time on ebay. Granted there are sellers ,selling sub par parts n such, so be cautious and check out the various armor forums that were mentioned in past comments. I had done this myself instead of getting the whole suit at one time and upgraded previous stuff to be more accurate. In the end i only spent 225 bucks total.1300 is waaaay too much for my tastes,lol.

    • @joefera8947

    If you just want to go halloween or other costume parties you could do well with the 10 $-costume. If you want to go 501st Legion, you have to spend more of course. But i would build it myself. It´s sometimes better then if you order it completed from a maker. Except if you go with RS. They make great quality builds. AND: they are the only maker with access to a original screen used Episode 4 stormtrooper costume.
