Im thinkin of getting my armor from Richies armor (http://www.richiesarmor.com/) as they seem to offer what I need for my custom mando for the best price. Does anyone know anything about this place that I should be aware of?

Actually, there are less likely old mandalorians- a reason older mandalorians are revered, as a culture that prides itself on warfare, death is a common bedfellow. And while they do conquer, the mandalorians seem to have this effect where the local populations seem to adhere to their culture, as...

In a way you are right, but while we are "defining" the mandalorians as fans, we still have to adbide by the cannon to make cannon. True- some Mando'ade may have focused on specialities, but they were all equals in each others eyes- no specialists, no rank. The "ronin" of the mandalorians was...

Im sorry, but who decided to give you the right to decide whats cannon and not? And besides, the Journeyman Protector is something that has been associated with Mandalorians since Tales from the Bounty Hunters, so its not just Karen that you are denoting as 'wrong', but dozens of writers that...

Not sure if you know about this site already, but http://www.studiocreations.com/howto/index.html has a lot of great tips on how to go about this under their "vaccuforming basics" thread. They seem to use a combination of a heat gun and an oven.

I dont. Im just correcting a factual error based on readings of Open Seasons and Karen Traviss' work. While it may be true that the Journey Man Protector's were an extention of the Military, it was needed, as demonstrated in Open Seasons, where Jango's own family was murdered by rogue mando's.

The flaw in your logic lies in the idea that every mando will obey the laws set by the mandalore. If someone breaks that law, someone must be of position to uphold it and rectify the problem. Likewise, the military has its own police- as the soldiers need to obey the law, and if that law is...

I found a airsoft pistol that sells for about $40 on amazon. looks just like that blaster... forgive me if I break anyrules here but...heres a link to it...

hey, I have an idea for saving some space in your helmet. You can rig your gauntlets to house a NiMH battery to power your helmet. You can cut the power to the helmet by using a toggle switch, and have a parallel connection running through either a push button or a toggle switch- both commonly...

If our soldiers are warriors, why have a military police? answer- because even warriors can commit crimes.

they still have it. http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2062620&cp=&sr=1&origkw=mini+amplifier+speaker&kw=mini+amplifier+speaker&parentPage=search

I'm planning on rigging my own- I'm fairly talented with electronics- and my dad is a master. Most likely- I'm going to be rigging switches on the gauntlet that control fans and such, hiding cables in a small tube running into the armor and up into the helmet- disguised as the flame projector...

Ok, so I have about $400 to spend on this project- with more cash coming in time. So I've decided to attack this little endeavor in phases. Phase I: Armor from Richies Armor - $195 Helmet from Sgt Fang- $95 Visor- ~ $4 Boots from CA boots- $90 Rangefinder from bigkidbiggertoys- $25...

heh- yup. I remember finding that in a random post and just going to town. Great job! though I think the dark side on the helmet should go- its hard to get the design I want there to be seen. I'm thinking that instead of red shoulder bells, that they should be blue.

Alright- Ill see to allocating funds for this then. Thanks for the help!
