Did these originate from an Infinites design or something? Any more information you could give us on these? They're kind of neat.

It looks like a costum. I don't see any hands or legs.

I have already looked at the site but thanks for the link anyway. I was just saying that it looks like a costum to me.

It seems that the original would be completely wearable, but they scaled it down. Maybe a child could fit it, or a very small person. It's a Japanese exclusive though, so I wouldn't count on the opportunity to own one...yet.

Someone please tell me GL is not going to sleeper out Vader as a Samurai as well?
I don't think I could deal with that.

Well, considering that the basis for the concept of Vader was largely taken from the ancient samurai, it doesn't seem like such a bad idea. Besides, It honors Vader in the Japanese tradition, to have master craftsmen that have passed down their way of armor crafting, to render such a magnificent display of art.

I love Star Wars and any samurai stuff that I can find. This is the best of both worlds.

Maybe I am just set in my ways but I think that somethings shuold not cross over. I do see the point made about vader being based on a samuri outfit and the pic does look wicked none-the-less.
