Appreciate the help from everyone here so far. Here's a status update. I Googled some stuff and managed to find a few things to start this build off. First off, the original pic, as previously posted here.
Found this on Google, any tips on how to modify/if it needs to be modified, painted, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
I was also of going with this for the shoulder/chest armor rig, but it don't know if it will be long enough.
I'm a stickler for realism and was wondering about using a metal curiass/chest-plate to cover the rest of the chest with. My searches for an accurate looking chest-plate module so far have been nil.
I'm definitely gonna hit the Pepakura files for the rest of the chest armor, George, thanks for the tip. I want it to be as real and functional as possible (if possible) though, hence, my search for the lower part of the chest-plate will continue.
I found these for the arm gauntlets, but I've got nothing on the segmented upper forearm armor as of yet, what do you all think?
I found this stuff from a place called

I found this from a pure stroke of luck, it looks very similar to the photo, a bit pricey, but i think it's a good fit for this costume don't ya think?
Still need a little help finding the upper forearm armor, lower chest armor, and gloves. I don't know what to use for an accurate bodysuit. Any additional help is very much welcome. Thanks to all in advance.
