Clone Trooper

$1700 sounds about right for a good suit, when all is said and done. i've got about $1000 or so in my Rex suit so far, and there's a LOT left before i'm happy, plus there were a bunch of things i already had, both stuff like gloves and the suit, and all of the glues / paints / etc... i needed to assemble it.
 
A few things...I've been registered here (TDH) but not super active as my original intention was to assist a friend who I was mentoring in his ROTJ Fett build (TMaxxFett)...just learned about the new membership "stepped" system - I've actually been around a while but here are a few thoughts...

Clonetroopers.net is the place to go if you're serious about building a clone - the members there are friendly, knowledgeable, and willing to assist as people go about their builds. It's simply not something that is easily done in a quick manner. I started out with my initial clone (shocktrooper) and had well over $2k in it before I built another - upgrading almost every part (another $1.5k), so - it's not cheap. There are people who've pulled together their armor for less or have fabricated things themselves, in the end the costs there are time. Many, myself included, don't have the time to scratch build molds and then invest in the tooling to make parts/weapons/etc. I am very thankful for the talents of the folks who belong to the AC.

i got my Phase 1 helmet frm Starfortress and it shipped in right, less than 2 weeks.

its fibreglass, but its kinda thinly cast. nothing some bondo cant fix...
 
I head that te guys who took over the LFL licence from MR will soon be releasing an AOTC clone helmet with the same build quality as the MR ROTS buckets, so if you hold off for a few months you should be able to buy one of these, or just get one of Java's (he's dropped the Monkey BTW)
