Uh... well, really personal armour (like Terminators) is something I've wanted
for minifigs ever since I was a kid watching Robotech's "Invid Invasion" series
(with Cyclones).  Unfortunately, I can't think of many ways to implement it...
Minifigs just can't have armor built around them in Lego Bricks, is what I've
found.  The best I can do is some arm-guards.
