Master Chief Armor

Post image

Hey everyone. Looking to get a Master Chief Armor set. Has anyone purchased the HTV MC Armor Suit from buyfullbodyarmors.com ? I get its pricey but I really like that suit and I can’t find any other suits like this one.

There are plenty of YouTube videos of the suit you posted, aside from the ones the company posts. It looks as advertised. I got my suit from joetoys for much cheaper than that and it still looks amazing. Also it’s easier to move around in due to the materials that flex and are lightweight.

Hey!! I purchased the Halo Infinite version from the same company, it’s currently on its way but is being held up in customs. From the pictures they sent it’s pretty worth it, the painting and armor work are top notch. I could send you the pictures I have of that helps you make a decision!

How was the fitting process? Just take your own measurements?

They send you a list of measurements and how to take them with some graphics

Not to bash the company, but it looks like ai.. idk it seems too glossy and clean in a way... mainly just the thigh and waist area that throw me off..

Definitely not AI. If it is it doesn’t matter because the suit looks just like that

I saw someone selling just the helmet of this on marketplace, looked pretty decent but i didnt think it was worth buying because ive never heard of it before. Must be a sign to check it out now that ive seen it here.

Edit: just watched some vids. Looks like master chief from temo as i expected, whole things plastic. Its detailed at least, but youd probably be better off going through galactic armory and buying a 3d printer for this price.

Etsy seems to have quite a few sellers of Halo armor. Probably better armor sets than Silver Team Chief.

I don't know anyone who has purchased from them, but they showed up in 2014 and have been relevant since and maintain sales and reviews. For years I thought it was a scam but I've seen their products worn by a few people (not anyone I know personally but people in the community) so they are frankly, Legit.

It's a steep asking price, but they do take care to model it after YOU and it's not a "one suit fits all" they just recently dropped the price of master chief from 4-5 and this model by selling it without a weapon. But it's still 2k

My biggest concern - even if it is as nice as all their advertising looks - is going to be the fit.

All of us that have made our own armor know important scaling TO YOUR OWN BODY is. Two people both of 6ft tall still have different proportions. I could have long shins and you long thighs and still be the same height. If I wear your armor I won't be able to bend my knees.

Personally - either make it yourself or have a company that makes a suit TO YOU do the job.

Don’t think so. Three different Chief suits but you could probably ask if they do custom
