You may be thinking “wow what a awesome duct tape replica of the upper half of the red clone trooper”, but that’s not what you should be thinking. You should be thinking is “wow what an awesome upper half of a red clone trooper armor salvaged from the battle of Geonosis”.

you also may be thinking “wow look its mellon boy in a clone trooper uniform” and yes you are right.
