This is the way...

Fresh from taking a look at the Imperial armour from George Lucas's mega franchise, Toby is now taking a look at the 'modern poster child for the armoured warrior' (Toby's words) - The Mandalorian!

As always, as an Extended Episodes or VIP Patron, you get an extra long episode, including a couple of extra armour sets and reactions, as well as getting it ad-free and a week earlier than the main feed. Lovely stuff!

Tobias Capwell is an independent scholar, curator, an expert on arms and armour, as well as a historical advisor for movies and TV. On this episode of Expert Reacts, Toby is back in a galaxy far, far away to react to the arms and armour of The Mandalorian show, including Din Djarin’s armour evolution, the iconic Boba Fett suit, and Grogu’s adorable little chain mail coat.
