A lot of the pieces you've suggested here are entirely optional extras - you'll be hard-pressed to find a casual costumer that's got the finances and commitment to purchase body vests, multiple weapons, and outsourced under-armour designs. Plus, 3D printing is still a very niche method for producing armour pieces - most of the forum is still focused either on foam or Pepakura-based armour.

I applaud your commitment and dedication in putting this list together, but it doesn't serve much in the way of actual application. Home-created costumes generally generate expenses within the $500-$1000 range, depending on the methods. You're looking at probably double that for 3D prints, given that most 3D prints will need to be finished to a higher quality and then cast in a more rigid material to improve strength.

now you can always try the foam method if money is an issue. i can say that i personally do not have the funds to do a full pep and fiberglass suite.

Gonna do a second thread for links and stuff. I may or may not be able to post it tommorow. Thanks for the support!

A lot of this is a very extreme high end build. Carbon fiber??? are you cosplaying or looking more. Seems a bit unrealistic. but more power to you if you want to go that route.
