Plasteel/Legends

Plasteel, sometimes called plastisteel, was a material that combined acrylic polymers and metal alloys. Plasteel retained the elastic strength of plastics while benefiting from the strength and heat resistance of metal. Plasteel was most commonly used in armor, spaceship components, containers, and construction. It was capable of yellowing with age.Darth Maul: Shadow Hunter
