so...how about a carbon fibre stormtrooper suit?....

these guys decided that it was a good idea...

Carbon fiber Stormtrooper suits cost as much as a new car | DVICE

(apologies if its posted in the wrong section, just got excited and wanted to post it up )

 

crazy, I've made stuff with carbon fiber and can honestly say that while the suit itself can in no way cost what a new car does to make, the total of the r&d, tooling and dies for the vacuum process along with the 4 suits might. still, pretty cool

 

Is it bad to admit that I quite like those suits? I think it helps that they look (to the lay man at least) quite well made - construction quality wise, that is, if not screen accurate :lol
