Three new special releases from "The Mandalorian" from Bandai
From the first live-action drama series "Mandalorian" from the "Star Wars" universe, the main character of that series "Mandalorian" is made into a plastic model on a 1/12 scale with various accessories from Bandai.
Mandalorian armor referred to the traditional armor worn by the human warrior clans of the planet Mandalore. Common traits included a helmet with a T-shaped visor that concealed their faces, and armaments like whipcord throwers, flamethrowers, and jetpacks.
The Mandalorians' bloody history made their armor an iconic symbol of fear. Mandalorian armor was made from beskar, which was one of the strongest metals in the galaxy. Beskar could protect the wearer from blasters and even lightsabers. The bounty hunter Jango and his cloned son, Boba Fett wore customized Mandalorian armor, which was made with a beskar alloy.
Din Djarin - the man inside the well-known armoured suit in "The Mandalorian" is the subject at the centre of these three releases...
