📋 About This Mod

Skyrim: Mandu by Neo

This is, as already mentioned above, the CBBE SSE BodySlide version of the outfit.

There's a zap option in BodySlide to remove the pauldrons.

Most of you will know a famous game character "Chun Li" in the "Street Fighter" series.

She has a very unique and cute hair style. And most of Korean call it as "Mandu hair". Because her two ball shaped hair style looks like some Korean "Mandu".

This female helmet inspired from Chun Li's hair style, so naturally I named it "Mandu".

Male armours are relatively closer to original Skyrim armour style as you can see.

-Heavy and Light type armours for Male and Female characters.

-You can't craft these armours at any forge.

-But you can temper these with Glass (for light armour) or Ebony (for heavy armour) Perks.

Mandu is a CBBE BodySlide conversion of a Koreanized dumpling-themed armor set for Skyrim Special Edition, originally from Oldrim. With 980 endorsements and 28,331 downloads, it's a niche but popular cosmetic mod for players who want a quirky, food-inspired look. Last updated in 2019, it remains a stable choice for CBBE users.

✨ Key Features

Converts the Mandu armor set to SSE with CBBE BodySlide support.
Includes BodySlide files for custom body fitting.
Requires permission from the original author, indicating a respectful port.
Adds a unique dumpling-themed armor to the game.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Solid community backing with 980 endorsements and over 28k downloads.
  • BodySlide support means you can tailor the fit to your exact body preset.
  • It's a quirky, one-of-a-kind armor that stands out in your inventory.

⚠️ Cons

  • No updates since 2019, so it might not be compatible with the latest Skyrim patches or newer CBBE versions.
  • It's purely cosmetic—no gameplay changes or unique enchantments, so if you want stats, look elsewhere.
  • Being a port, there's a small risk of clipping or texture issues depending on your other mods.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who love collecting unique, themed armors and use CBBE with BodySlide. If you're into food-inspired gear or just want something different from the usual fantasy sets, this is a fun pick. Skip it if you're not using CBBE or if you prefer lore-friendly, serious armor designs.
📦 Install:Medium· 5-10 minutes

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have CBBE and BodySlide installed before adding this mod, and build the armor in BodySlide to match your body preset.
  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to handle the installation and load order—place it after other body mods to avoid conflicts.
  • If you're on Skyrim SE, double-check that your game version is compatible with mods from 2019; if you're on the latest update, you might need to use a compatibility patch.
