Skip to 33:57 to see me suited up fully! Hey all! This was one of the first videos we ever made. We've learned a ton since then and have actually redone this suit up video in a much better way!

It's much less "annoying" lol! Sorry about that! Thanks so much for checking out what we do!
Believe it or not, the awkwardness of the suit does fit into cannon, since the Kaminoans were bad at designing suits for humans, and they ended up being very uncomfortable. Although that really only applies to the first generation clone armor, I assume that the gen 2 would still be uncomfortable.
@@yankeeforcestudios5431 Oh yeah, forgot about that. The design still got screwed up when the empire took over. "I can't see a thing in this helmet" and the classic... *"Thunk"*
Icrazyfish The canon reasoning behind that is that every stormtrooper’s armor is coded/connected to their serial number, which gives them access to a wide array of vision modes/enhanced vision. This was to protect the armor and its software from robbers and whatnot. When the armor doesn’t link up with the trooper, are you’re left with is a small eyehole which is why Luke said that. As for the “thunk”, let’s just assume that guy wasn’t the smartest stormtrooper.
Honestly this is my dream cosplay, I really want to see how you make the clone trooper armor and this video would definitely be a great tutorial once I make it
@Den Danske Helt well you can buy different things like: full armor, only helmet, weapons, pdf files to make one yourself, files to 3D print one,... shorturl.at/fgsKW this is a fully 3D printed Phase 1 shorturl.at/IKOW2 this is a ARC armor shorturl.at/klnqw fully 1400$ Rex armor

LOL! They got their inspiration from us. They hosted a podcast on our set while they were traveling in California. I own a bike company called Super73 and they heard we had a podcast set. They podcasted with Michael Reeves, jacksfilms, and one other. Go watch those episodes and you'll see that it's our set haha
Plastic works for the look but I would say study historical armor harnessing and actually mind your proportions. That would resolve many of the mobility issues as well as issues with proposition of the armor. You are not a clone so one size doesn't fit all.
A video about how to make the armor would help me out even more since I myself am working on a set of animated armor. Wonderful video as always, keep it up!
Kev just sent my armor, it'll be here in a week - and i am SO pumped to finally start my first build. I always look for videos and tips on how people build this armor cause i don't wanna mess mine up, but this kinda video gives me more confidence that i can do it! The Velcro, the Bondo, and the glue tips are huge and seeing how you attached pieces for longevity, and to avoid cracks is important so i know ahead of time, before i start to assemble my armor pieces. Def gonna give this video another once over when i'm actually building this kit next week. Still waiting for a step-by-step guide, but this will do for now.
Where can you get armor like this? I want to do Commander Wolf for this years cosplay and there is a whole set of his armor but its almost a grand.. please help lop
@@Austin-id3qx Imperial Surplus is the best place i've seen to get it. Some people 3d print it but idk where you could do that. Imperial Surplus IS Pricey sure, but the kit is insane once it's built and it's where Rex got his armor in the video - and all of them for that matter.

Thank you SO much for this seriously, this is such a godsend. I'm sure I'd never have ever thought about like 98% of these tips and tricks on my own, y'all are amazing. Cosplay is such a scary thing for me, but watching you suit up slowly with advice really helped ease a lot of that anxiety. It's so easy for me to see excellent cosplayers such as yourselves and feel intimidated or hopeless like I'll never achieve that, but y'all are so uplifting and it means a lot. Thank you for doing what you do.
the host reminds me of my brother, “We’re finally doing what i want to do” totally me: “we always do what you want” def my twin: “as per usual we are doing what i want to do this episode.”
Love the little tips and tricks. There are so many hilarious quotes and facial expressions from this, TBH probably my favourite part. The salt about the 501st is amazing too.
Honestly this is the best video I've seen showing how to put on armor. Bought a Captain Rex kit from KW and I'm scared to screw it up. His videos aren't the greatest since he keeps skipping around or changing his mind on ways to do things half way through the video. I'm 6'2" and a 34-36 waist, so alterations are needed.
I am so glad you made this episode, that you hinted at during the Kevin one. I am building a realistic clone, and it is always super helpful to see how other people work around the armor (and cut corners) and talk about what didn't work. Let's see the shore trooper armor up, and even another clone, as everybody does it slightly differently, and different body types have different armor fit issues. Great episode!
A quick question, what would you suggest instead of magnets for the helmet? I have a cochlear implant and a hearing aid, and cannot have any magnets near my head.
Hey dude, I know you'll probably never see this but, what vendor do you buy your armor from? I kinda wanted to know because I'm currently trying to plan out on making a 212th Parjai Squad Airborne Trooper, but I didn't know on how to make the armor. So should I just buy a 3-D file for the armor or should I buy one?
I like the tutorial on putting clone troop armor. I like the facts on making clone troop armor and outfits. I like to create a Captain Rex suit, armor and colors. Thank you guys!
Omg I almost forgot to like and comment but I’m back for the third time to watch and laugh 🥰 keep up the great work guys I love this and all your personalities are to funny! Love ya guys!

There were live action clone troopers in the prequels (a lot of cg as well). But seriously though, I want a movie about a squad of clone commandos SO bad.
@@RexinAround Whaaat?? My bad, lol. I always assumed at least ONE of them was real. That's a shame they didn't, especially when you guys make armor that shows how awesome it can be.

It's insane how freely you move in that armor! I can't even get my own helmet on when in full gear 😅
Nordic Rex some special trimming on the forearms will help you with that! Shoot me a message on Instagram, I’ll tell you my secret
I wanna see this especially after seeing people suit up for sca
I wanted more costume videos. This is great, keep em coming!
You guys keep making the content we'll keep watching, its just a good time and Im glad you guys enjoy making it!!
That armor is awesome. Rex's armor is by far my favorite, and yes, my favorite of the close troopers.
This is like dressing up in a fur suit but it's actually not weird and is cool
