Okay here is my Completed Revenge of the Sith style Vader costume
There are a few things I want to change and improve but for now it's done. Hope you like it

Parts break down :
The Shoulder armor is the Rubies, I thickened it with fiberglass to give it the proper thickness and repainted it.
The Cod is also Rubies ... I haven't done anything to it.
My helmet is a recast of an MR I got off eBay...sorry but just wouldn't trust wearing an $800-$1000 helmet. Chest Box is the Rubies
with the rods replaced with ones from SA, also replaced the red and green lenses and the lights so they have the proper blink sequence.
Belt Boxes are Rubies that I replaced the lights and the knobs on. Still need to replace the mesh.
Gloves are SA
Shins are stock Rubies, want to replace them at some point.
Suit and inner robe are stock Rubies for now.
The cape is the Rubies I just had the attachment points switched out. Still need to get the lining done....not looking forward to adding more weight to the costume but what are ya gonna do.
I guess that about covers it. I still need to get a ROTS Saber hilt to hang on the belt.
 
Looks good to me...

The only thing that appears off is that I think your cape is pulling your chest armor back.
 
I think it looks good too...add velcro and weight to the front of the shoulder armor to keep it from being pulled back by the cape....also take your body suit and turn it inside out. The thighs look too wrinkly at the cod piece. Snug up the inner thigh by sewing a new seam.

the ROTS Vader is baggier than the other Vader suits so I don't want it too tight. As for the armor it doesn't move at all so no it's not being pulled back...guess I need to move the chest box up.

Looks very good so far, (Gimme a "N" Gimme a "O" Gimme a "NOOOOOOOOOOOO"!) but the gloves seem to be a few shades duller than the suit, is this screen accurate?
Question: what led you to choose the ROTS Vader over the other appearances?
