Yes, unless you want to become another armour maker and mass produce, buying a kit is the easier and most cost/time effective way to go.
The time and cost to shape every vacuform mould for all the parts, plus the cost of a forming machine, then the plastic. I don't see how you could do it for less than $700 (which is the rough cost of Stormtrooper armour)
