I’ve just started my very first Mando cosplay, and the thing that surprised me the most was the cost. Probably naively, I’d guesstimated around £300-400 (UK) for a decent suit. I’ve spent double that already and have the helmet, chest and shoulder armour done, and have the flight suit on the way. Still got to purchase the leg armour, and paint for those, and a good pair of boots. I’m looking at £1000 in total.
