$10 vs $1,300 Stormtrooper Armor

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.

[@moeshickenyay]

Pretty sure you have the same blaster protective power from either armour, but have to say the 1300 look pretty dam good.

[@TK80494]

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]

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]

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.

[@joefera8947]

Anything info related to stormtroooper costumes can be found on the forums at whitearmor.net.

[@Krieger-productions6149]

Look it’s the 501st facists who shun anybody who don’t have a movie accurate suit , not everybody has the skill to make a kit buddy maybe consider that

[@tonyflamingo8637]

The scuff marks make it look like you’re a more experienced trooper

[@ClexBennett]

Big Facts!

[@BenderRodriguezBender]

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.

lmao

[@helmutsommer4314]

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.

[@morganwilliams1577]

Getting mugged by the," Aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper?" comments. :0

[@WWIIREBEL]

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]

Actually, ebay, amazon and etsy are not good places. Too many scammers and people selling junk. Best place for TK armor is the forums at whitearmor.net.

You can get 400$ stormtrooper armor from anovos very cheap but very high quality don’t spend money on other crappy armor

They are a little cheaper, but they are kits. The cheapest kit I saw was $900. These are already pre-assembled.

Anovos should be avoided. They take your money and never send you your stuff.
