Jango Fett Armor

Hmmmmm. Thinking about getting Jango Fett armor - this one up at eBay looks pretty nice. Started to search for a Boba one though.
Apart from eBay, do you know of any other decent armor sellers?

Have you checked out The Dented Helmet? http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/
I believe they have full sets for sale and tutorials if you're interested in making your own armor. It's a heads-up from my boyfriend (who, too, is a fellow Stormtrooper haha).

$3200....WOW!!!!!!
So expensive...
I've always wanted the stormtrooper or some sort of Star Wars armor...but it's just way too expensive...

yea...
i wish i could get one of those lol
Hahahahah 3,200 for that. I'd learn how to craft it before i wasted that kind of money. If one had the time it would be a great experience.You could learn a lot about many new art related areas and the end result would be a set of badass armor! Of course i wouldn't consider that cost a waste if i actually made a decent amount of money. Not many folks can afford that kind of stuff these days.

The shininess of Jango Fett is pretty cool, but Boba sure is more popular.

Am I the only one who didn't know who Boba or Jango are? =x The armour looks impressive nonetheless.

They are Star Wars characters.
Wow that is rather unusual. Well you knew who Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker were right? ^_^

I'm partial to Jango, but the Boba armor looks pretty bad ass.

The color scheme for Boba Fett is much better IMO, looks more rugged and camo-like
He's actually my favorite Star Wars character ^^
same here. He ties with the emperor for my number one spot! I know the emperor's the epitomy of evil, but that man had more patience to wait out his masterful plan than any other villian i can think of off hand. Not to mention he's the most manipulative bad guy and he can actually fight as well. The total package imo.

I like the color scheme of Jango Fett personally.

this guy is really nuts for selling at this price considering the poor quality of the armor and especially the jetpack !!!!
only the helmet is so so

Wow... I'm amazed at the quality of these costumes including yours. I'm not the biggest Star Wars fan ever. I enjoy watching it to a certain extent and love the universe concept and such. Now this is just my take, but I'd rather go for Boba Fett's colour scheme armour than Jango Fett's. For one thing, the steel gray colour scheme never appealed to me and in fact reminds me of medieval armour plating look. Boba Fett's armour colour just reminds me of the modern military camouflage yet retains that futuristic and flashy look. Up to you really. Besides, either way, its gonna be fun hearing about the dancing bounty hunter ^^;

I'm in the process of trying to pick one up too. I'm newbish to armor buying and all, so I'm slowly scouring for good sources. I loved the story of Jango Fett from the novels, so he was my first pic if ever I would be getting a full set.
That armor on ebay looks fantastic, let's hope it's not a dud like your last experience. D:

HI Danny, here are a couple of places that make custom work check them out i was thinking for this past halloween to get a predator costume but i didn't anyway no harm in checking them out.

Holy crap, Predator costume is pure win!

Yea i was thinking in getting one for halloween, it would have been awesome, the laser sight on the helmet is functional, and a bunch of other stuff, did you see the video of the Brolly Costume??????

That'll probably be more comfortable to dance in than the stormtrooper armor.

You are one step closer to being hugged by me*. XD Boba Fett would be a great cosplay for you--I mean it's only natural that he'd be asian underneath (he really should have been too). However, Jango does seem to have the uniform feel that would gather a sense of security AND the ladies along with it. Though, Boba's distinct ruggedness should attract many "eyes" to your arm as well...you know, with the cloth sleeves and all... XD

i can't wait till danny gets clone trooper armour
but heard that all clone troopers were CG'd in 2 and 3 so wouldn't think there'd be any 'official' armour to buy anywhere.....

Danny, you gotta go Boba Fett! It's classic, and you could totally pull it off. Have you ever considered Clone Trooper armor (maybe a variation like commander)?
I did find a guy who made awesome Clone Trooper armor, but I'm not sure if he sells. Amazing work though, some pics maybe crappy due to low quality, but the HQ pics on the last few pages have amazing armor pics. Some look weird because they're weathered. He might have other armor in production.

personally i prefer boba's green plating armor but it probably wouldn't stand out as much as boba's blue plating in the streets of tokyo, especially at night...

I've always wanted Boba Fett armor when I was in high school. There's just something bad ass about carrying around a revolver/rifle, jet pack, and spiked boots. Though, it might raise the eyebrows of the Tokyo police.
I don't know any armor dealers (but did at one time). I did see a pretty good Boba Fett helmet at Nakano broadway today. Though the rest of his armor would be a challenge.
with your skills and equipment I think you can make them yourself at a fraction of the cost. A clone trooper outfit would be more cool although if you follow the series you are steping back in time.

But Bobba's suit is a bit dirty don't cha think? prefer jango it's more sleek and shiny than bobba's besides jango has a cooler death than bobba
I'd say but then I'd have to kill you :D
No ,No just buy a Clone trooper Helmet and Mod it into a Republic Commando Armor :D now that would be Kick ass :D

I can't even remember the difference between the two.
I have a Boba costume myself. It took me a year to put together. I think you'll be able to buy an entire Boba costume. I remember seeing one on ebay for $3000.But $3000 is alot of money even for an excellent Boba costume. I've come to find that the perfect costume can't be bought. All the boba stuff I've bought, I've had to modify or replace. But I say you should defintely do Boba Fett costume. I know I love mine. I feel like a super heroe everytime I put it on. You could make one your self for just under $2000. But there's alot to know if you're gonna make one. You might check out a Boba fett costuming forum Called "The Dented Helmet" everthing you need to know about Boba fett can be found there.

Always wanted a Star Wars costume of my own but sadly my local Masquerade place which is surprisingly good for most costumes (great spiderman and ninja turtles etc) the star wars stuff is generally low quality. I would prefer the boba

Are you planning on wearing the new armor yourself or are you taking a third member to the videos (a video of trooper, vader and Boba)?

I prefer Jango's. it's a bit "cleaner" than Boba's i think...
