Honestly it mostly looks like a slightly improved Rubie's Supreme.

My favorite pic is where you can see the guy looking away from the camera through the lenses.

I’ve seen this on sponsored ads pretty heavy the last few days. I figured there’d be a thread for it!

Same. The thin helmet just looks bad though. You'd think they could add an inner ridge to make it appear thicker like the actual helmets...

For a Halloween party I’d rock this, don’t have to worry about damaging your rare 501st approved costume

Seeing the super-glossy Jazwares videos in my feeds I was initially impressed with how this costume looked.

Seeing regular photos of the production costume this is an OT version of the Rubies EP3 Vader costume. The bodysuit looks slightly less ‘costumey’ but all the solid pieces look like thin black plastic especially the helmet and shoulder armor.

It looks cheap, nice but cheap, and it will look cheaper next to a high quality Vader kit sourced from higher quality components. The Jazwares is Halloween quality not convention quality.

Looks cheap..but the Rubies looks cheaper.

That storage/carrying case is the best part!
