Darth Vader Samurai Armor…

October 14, 2007 · Print This Article

This would make one badass halloween costume.. of course if you bought this you probably wouldn’t be wearing it to often. This suit alone would run you roughly a cool 5200$… looks like I won’t be getting one anytime soon. haha.

“Earlier this year the Yoshitoku Company transformed the iconic villain back into the design that inspired his well-known image in the first place. Yoshitoku’s “Samurai Vader” is a ¼ scale costume that even features a traditional bow and Samurai sword! The suit was created for a Japanese festival back in May called Tango no Sekku, which means “Boy’s Day”.

While some parts of the armor required cutting-edge sculpting technology, a lot of it is hand crafted with traditional materials. Even more interesting is the fact that most of the artists who worked on this are over 70 years old. They’ve obviously put their years to good use by producing such a masterpiece.”
