Help me see if I am in the right ball park here with the investment

[CFLStarWarsDad]

I believe that I have this correct as an initial estimate, but guide me as to any errors or adjustments I should be making to my projected budget

 

numbers are for "minimum" / "standard" / "premium" levels of spending.

 

Helmet $100-$200 / $250 - $500 / $500 - $1000

Armor $250 - $600 / $600 - $1000 / $1200 - $1500

Boots $25 - 50 / $50 - $150 / $150 - $300

Undersuit $5 - $20 / $25 - $50 / $50 - $150

Gloves $5 - $20 / $25 - $50 / $50 - $100

Soft Parts $50 - $100 / $100 - $250 / $250 - $500

Sidearm $5 - $25 / $25 - $100 / $100 - $500

Voice Changer $5 - $25 / $25 - $100 / $100 - $350

Cooling System $5 - $25 / $25 - $100 / $100 - $350

 

Total outlay ranges - 450-1100 / 1125-2300 / 2500-4750

 

 

Appreciate your feedback on whether you feel these are resonable budget numbers to work with, and thank you in advance.

helmet is going to be around the 250 mark, armor is around the 400 mark, boots maybe 50 at most if ypi make them, undersuit is 30-40,gloves are 50, soft parts vary depending if you buy or make them, pistol is maybe 40, and voice changer and fans are optional and can vary. so youre looking around $700-800 foreverything. but thats just from my experience. some people will say more and some will say less

Yeah it's all about how much you can complete yourself. You're over analyzing a little lol..don't worry, we all do it. If you do nothing, the cost can run you between $1000 to $1400 depending on who you're getting stuff done from. If you can do your boots, and soft goods yourself, easily under a thousand. (That also depends on what helmet you buy and if it's assembled or not)
