yes - but I would suggest only from the armor types that match what you are wearing.

That's good... a Mabari helmet in the right colour would probably look better with the Marine Armour than the current silver conehead does...

I don't mind it because the helmet actually looks like it was made for us Mon Cals. However it would have been nice for them to come up with a better looking recon armor than what we already have. Oh well I guess. I feel sorry for all the other species besides us Mon Cals.

The only armour Ive worn since the Tef changes has been the reb marine armour, so Ill be wearing it.
I dont use the helmet (Im human), but I have a nice chestplate from the corvette with the reb badge on
As my template is Rifles/CH and is not going to change post CU, I can also wear the battle armour, though I do beleive, as now on live, Ill spend most of my time unarmoured.

Yep. The Rebel Assult and battle armor doesn't look like Rebel armor to me.
Much too '90-sci-fi for the original trilogy. Along with *puke* composite.
I'll most liekly use Tantel armor though

I don't feel the same. The only part of the marine armor I like is the helmet and the boots. The helmet looks cool on non human species such like Mon Cals, bothans, Rodians and even twileks I think.
Of course they look stupid on Humans and zabs... But for the one time sometthing looks better on the other...
I hate the rest of the marine armor though. it really does not look good.

Yup, ditto on that. The recon armor is actually the only in game rebel armor that even remotely resembles something rebels would wear. With a Mabari helmet, it actually even looks somewhat nice.
The assault and battle might as well have shoulderpads the size of a barn, generic 90's sci-fi usually does....

Well yah but the comp armor helm looks like it was made for Mon Cals too but it doesn't look retarded in the process, you know what i mean?
