Sun-Guard armor... Is it Mercs approvable?

I found these guys while looking through some Pepakura files, and I was wondering if it'd be Mercs approvable, with the proper CRL modifications?

Let me know, please.  :D

It's not Mandalorian armor, so I wouldn't think so.

You also missed this part

Having just written the entry on Mandalorian Protectors, and seeing a connection with the Sun Guards' focus on armor, Wallace decided to make the Sun Guards and Mandalorians enemies.

Thus, they're enemies of the Mandalorians....so I'm going to say "No, most likely not."

Aaaaaaand there goes that theory.  :blank: :laugh:

Thanks for letting me know, Cando. I would've hated making the full suit for my dad, and then finding out its not Mercs approvable.

Well, it's really something only one of the Approval Team can answer for yes or no. I'm just saying, in my experience and the fact that it looks more like Crimson Guard Armor (Because it's where Crimson Guard Armor comes from), they will probably tell you no. But...you never know...

The armor itself and the Neo Crusader armor is very similar. Both came after the Red Guards in ROTJ in the real  world timeline. In Universe, the armor of the NC and the SG influenced the Red Guard armor.

That said, the Sun Gaurd armor is quite similar to NC armor. It's cool stuff but, it's a different character group in universe regardless of similarity. CRL wise it would be nearest to the NC CRL which is, other than canon character CRL's, is the most restrictive with no room for customization. So, it wouldnt meet NC CRL's.

If you and your dad like that design, make NC armor.

Vod, if you or anyone else made yellow NC armor like that I might die of happiness. The grey/yellow markings look really sharp.
