Rexin_Around A video about you would be nice! (Whats your connection with starwars and the clones, when did you start building armors, how did you met your pointrain buddies, what are your future projects, motivations, other hobbies, etc!)
The 501st are actually a non profit company that do star wars based charity work. George Lucas saw what they were doing and thats how the 501st came around👍
Heck yes. This was the perfect time to get into this stuff. Can't wait to get guidance from the best troops around! Also, from your story question, probably whoever it is that plays Thorn (aside from you, of course)

Going through all of your videos because I'm about to start my Captain Rex armor creation journey (first time doing anything like this, super nervous lmao), and yours is by far the best I've seen
I love watching people putting their armors together. I have a Phasma and the work that's involved just getting dressed is ridiculous hahaha. It's all worth it though! Thank you for such an awesome in-depth look at how the Clones go together!
This was such a great walkthrough, and really got to see how much attention to detail there is in these suits. Awesome job! Super informative to me at least :) Honestly the talking to yourself at 7:50 was so relatable, your videos are amazing dude, i love seeing them come up in my feed!
Damn, I would get into this in a heartbeat if I had the cash! Nothing would be more awesome than making people happy in a suit of freaking Clone armor!
I didnt think I wanted to be a clone because I'm a FAT boy. But then I saw your other videos and realized that with love and care I can make it work and look good and now I really want this kit. I'm looking forward to it and I hope the different shape and dimensions of clone armor will suit me better than stormtrooper armor.
This is amazing. I am losing my mind because I cannot find a purchasable animated series armor set. There are so many amazing sets out there with no sources. I don't even know how they're made.
Three questions; First what do you recommend for the under suit. Second is what do you recommend for the Kama to be made out of. Third, is all the paint the same or do you recommend any specific brand or style?
Hey! I just came across this video of yours right now and it's my first time viewing your channel. I appreciated the simple and straight foward explanations, and I'm gonna look at your other videos. You just got yourself another fan and subscriber!
Excellent video Mike, even for me. A lot of good info that I could take away from this. As I hope to get to building on my armor insanely soon and it helps to know these little tidbits. Suspenders, Velcro, where to implement it and such. Lol.
Hey rex! I realy want to make my own clone armor, and a lot of people are telling me that EVA foam is good material... is that true? And how thick is the armor overall? Thanks!
Lol i was trolling on the insta livestream while you were making this, awesome stuff like always rexin great that you do this, i am looking forward to more vids.
When you make the toutorial (sorry for bad spelling) you should put a list in the description for everything you used and everything you recomend like the list of materials and tools and all that.
I wish I was good at building stuff I've tried and tried but I'm just so bad at it... anyone know anyplace to buy good accurate starwars costumes? I give up at this point on making one my own.
You buy the parts in kit form and build it to fit your body type, like a giant model kit. Read here first: databank.501st.com/databank/Join_Us Then sign up for the detachment of the character you want to do. The "detachments" are the character-specific web sites we have set up where you can find armor vendors and all the info on how to put it all together. And stay FAR AWAY from Ebay, Amazon or any other web site that claims to make approvable armor. Almost all are scams or sell complete junk. You want to stay away from buying completed/ mass produced costumes. Just about all, even the expensive officially licensed ones, are very inaccurate and very poor quality. Or the company is a joke and has awful customer service. Plus, hard armor is not "1 size fits all" and you want to build your costume to fit your body type. Often times our members will sell their old costumes they don't want anymore. If you go that route and buy one, you want to make sure that the seller is close to your body type. But even then, you might still have to make some modifications. Also, keep in mind that this is an expensive hobby. Expect to pay anywhere from $300 to $5,000 USD, depending on the costume.
I would love to make my own clone commando armour and become part of the 501st it's been a childhood dream of mine since my mom got me a star wars collector edition book and I saw that patch
How much would u charge for having one of these suits built for another person of similar body type. also how much for the materials used to build the suit
Chris Walter I spent about $2200 Canadian on the suit unfinished. Then for the amount of time someone puts into building this could easily want 500-1000 more. I'm 90% done and I've put 50-60 hours into it.
hey i want to start creating my female version of captain rex at the beginning of next year and came across your channel and your videos are just so nice
I loved this video! Thank you so much for this. I am currently trying to make my own armor for fun. I made one earlier out of an old hasbro Captain Rex helmet from the first three seasons of the clone wars and a storm trooper costume but now I’m trying to make my own legit armor. I would also like to join the 501st whenever I can but I want to have armor ready before I do that. Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks so much for watching! Do you have any recommendations for videos you’d like to see?
Rexin_Around A video about you would be nice! (Whats your connection with starwars and the clones, when did you start building armors, how did you met your pointrain buddies, what are your future projects, motivations, other hobbies, etc!)
Rexin_Around is it awkward when you first join
good question! No! Haha the 501st people are so welcoming. I immediately had more friends in the first day than I had my entire life.
Oh interesting haha. I may have to build up the courage for that one.
Maybe as the series progresses you could have a 20-30 sec segment on each go the clones in and out of armour. 1 guy per video?
"The goal of the 501st is to help others". Tell that to those that were in the Temple
Good one

99% velcro
1% Other Stuff
That’s all cosplays. 😂 Super glue, Hot glue, buckles, Velcro, zippers, and tears... maybe some blood.
I made a super cheap/crappy one out of used pizza boxes, white tape, and tears
Hahahahahahaha I was not expecting the tears part 😂
How to do it?

ISHERWOOD75 I thought it was a joint project by the bloods and crips
I want that armor SOOO badly.
It was at that moment I knew, Velcro is life.
One day I'm gonna get myself a full kit, it'll be awhile but I'm determined.
You and me both
Same. Rn I’m no where close money wise to getting an armor kit.
Did you ever make it?
Status?
I'm from the future to say this, #clonewarssaved
I'm from the future to say that it's over
Tpakz oh jeez. That made me ugly cry, that ending tho
@Tpakz i'm from even more in the future to say there is more clone wars but its bad batch
I’m here from the future future to say that the bad batch is sick
This belt holds everything together “including my sad life”
* grabs wallet * I need this
did anybody else notice the at-at in the background that was changing poses between cuts?
Jeff Crippen Slowly walking and teleport down
I like that cool little deatail
i did
Yas
Great armour! Now…
Execute Order 66.
Nate Macrae hah i bet you are thinking different as of now
I told that to Google Assistant, she said "Sorry, I don't have an inhibitor chip."
I wasn't disappointed. 👍🏼
Anyone else see the old toy AT-AT move almost every time he started to talk about a new piece? 😂
Seriously love the series so much already and I so enjoyed watching the behind the scenes! ... and spinning is a good trick, just like I said 😂
Matthew Blanchet 1) thanks for the content hahaha 2) thanks so insanely much for sticking with me! I’m so excited to get better and make cool content!
Heck yes. This was the perfect time to get into this stuff. Can't wait to get guidance from the best troops around! Also, from your story question, probably whoever it is that plays Thorn (aside from you, of course)
That AT-AT was really cool in the background, it just slowly walked, stalking its prey.

Can't wait to see your video for making and installing the kama.
I'm not choosing my favourite Point Rainer. That's like making me choose my favourite child.
welp your child has been replaced with CT-5555 and CT-7567 now choose
Why does the AT-AT move at 2:15?
Daniel Gutierrez lol 😂
Why do you move?
Ur Clone armour (Captain Rex) is by far the coolest from the pointrainclone squad ;)
N20Stagg12 hehehehe shhhh don’t tell them
N20Stagg12 I need tips to make it
This was such a great walkthrough, and really got to see how much attention to detail there is in these suits. Awesome job! Super informative to me at least :) Honestly the talking to yourself at 7:50 was so relatable, your videos are amazing dude, i love seeing them come up in my feed!
The was such a special comment to read. Thank you so much!
Damn, I would get into this in a heartbeat if I had the cash! Nothing would be more awesome than making people happy in a suit of freaking Clone armor!
The part with the straps and the magnets really helped me! Doing a phase one and didn’t know how to attach the back haha
CT-6116 “Kix” is the best Point Rain Clone😏
My favourite pointrainclone always Rex... And Thorn hahahaha but you are the best!! I hope one day have one armour like yours
This is how many people think that Velcro is life
👇
I didnt think I wanted to be a clone because I'm a FAT boy.

@4:47 clone suspenders. Never going to see your shots in the same way again haha.
I cant wait to see the series take off!!! Clone recruit here!
Look that AT Walker behind just moved 😂😂2:14
That fucking moving AT-AT spooks me whyever.
Do you have to build the armor from scratch, or can you buy the pieces then build them yourself?
its cheaper to build most of it yourself in the long run but it doesn't hurt to invest in a good bucket.
You can order sets but they have you paint and fit the armor to your body type and size
Pretty sure he got his armor from Imperial Surplus (look it up on google), but you could probably build it yourself
It's pretty good. It gave some ideas for a set of armor I wanted to make.
This is amazing. I am losing my mind because I cannot find a purchasable animated series armor set. There are so many amazing sets out there with no sources. I don't even know how they're made.
Go check out impirial surplus, if you are interested in buying one send them an email😉
When I saw the “One piece two piece red piece blue piece” I died XD
Three questions; First what do you recommend for the under suit. Second is what do you recommend for the Kama to be made out of. Third, is all the paint the same or do you recommend any specific brand or style?
I want to buy the Captain Rex helmet! How much it cost?
Awesome! But I saw no zip ties!
Hey! I just came across this video of yours right now and it's my first time viewing your channel. I appreciated the simple and straight foward explanations, and I'm gonna look at your other videos. You just got yourself another fan and subscriber!
That means a ton and you're the best for saying that. Thanks so much! I'm excited to keep making cool stuff!
The Force is strong with Rex and Comet!
I kinda wanna have a meet-up with my friends and just show up in a Rex armor just to fuck with them.
I got this in my suggestions! I actually follow you on Instagram but never knew u did RUclips. Good stuff.
You should get one of those old toy microphones and install it in the helmet so it sounds like it does in the show.
Thanks for making this video! It's given me tons of ideas and answers!
Excellent video Mike, even for me. A lot of good info that I could take away from this. As I hope to get to building on my armor insanely soon and it helps to know these little tidbits. Suspenders, Velcro, where to implement it and such. Lol.
I can't choose one, Carlos, Greg, And You are my fav clones
Yes!! This is awesome! Thank you for making this series!
Not sure if I'm the only one but I noticed that AT-AT in the background is gradually moving, then just straight up disappears
Thanks, now I know how to put on a clone trooper armor.
How do you go to the bathroom?? Also I love and want the suit. I am being a clone trooper for Halloween. Wish me luck.
You have to take it all off for that.
Outstanding work, bruh!
By any chance do you know anyone in Brazil who can make an armor as good as yours?
Did you know the rest of the clones before you made your first suit, or did you meet them through the 501st?
Camden Lowe good question! I had a clone trooper helmet and they spotted me at an event. We were best friends from that moment on haha.
Lovely video, subscribed for more. Looking forward to it. Love from Singapore
Great video Mike! Looking forward to the tutorials!
Viking1310 hey thanks!
*wears armor to child cancer charity: *order 66 and killing of younglings intensifies*
Hey rex! I realy want to make my own clone armor, and a lot of people are telling me that EVA foam is good material... is that true? And how thick is the armor overall? Thanks!
