The armor itself first debuted on-screen in Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, but first appeared in various sources throughout the Expanded Universe (such as Volume 2 of the Clone Wars microseries). Phase 2 armor was eventually replaced by it's lesser-reliable counter-part Phase 3 armor, to whom the Clone Troopers eventually became known as Imperial Stormtroopers for the 501st Legion. The armor soon became fully developed by the second-half of the Clone Wars, and proved to have reduced the amount of casualties and outnumber the so-called "defenseless" opposing Battle Droids in the CIS (Confederacy of Independent Systems) or the Seperatists. It was first worn by the newer generation of Advanced Recon Commandos (ARC Troopers), to whom they wore the experimental version of the armor, as well as demonstrating it on Kamino for Clone Cadet Training. Phase 2 armor began being developed during the middle of the Clone Wars Era when the Republic needed more Clone Troopers for combat, as well as a better way of reducing the amount of casualties caused by those which originally wore the somewhat flawed Phase 1 set of armor. I need something durable enough to handle being used as a costume and such, but lightweight enough to be worn comfortably. The armor itself proved to eliminate the problems caused with Phase 1 armor, and was proved to be lightweight and compact compared to its predecessor, though it also defended well against blaster bolts. Looking for someone to hire print a basic set of Phase 2 Clone Trooper Armor, I have the models modeled out mostly, just need someone to print the 53 pieces. It was an improvement from Phase 1 armor which was originally deemed too heavy and uncomfortable for most Clones, and it often became damaged easily aside from helmets not having a reliable ventilation system.
