Samurai?

Are you talking about the Praetorian guards?

The standard helmets look okay but I'm not digging the flattop on the elites...

He's talking about Bandai's medieval-Japanese interpretations of Star Wars characters as high-detail figures. They've done Vader, Stormtroopers, Sandtroopers, Boba Fett... and the Emperor's Royal Guard:

mikid, the only person I know for sure who did one of these is Gio aka CROWPROPS. I followed his progress and wish I had the time to tackle it, myself. It's on my "maybe someday" queue, not even my "gonna build it for sure come hell or high water" queue. As much as I love it.

Eh. The Praetorian Guards don't look to promising, The plated arms are definitely gonna get scratched pretty easily.
