Rahul Kalvapalle — July 26, 2014 — Tech
Comic-Con costumes are one of the biggest attractions of the annual festival, and this year there's an incredibly accurate Darth Vader costume on offer that is sure to appease the most hardcore of Star Wars fans.
Developed by Anovos, a company that has been providing sci-fi geeks with replica costumes for years, this Darth Vader Comic-Con costume is based on the sith lord's costume from The Empire Strikes Back.
Nearly every detail from Vader's costume in the movie has been recreated by referencing the original props as well as utilizing photos taken on set while the movie was filming. Even the mask's barely noticeable asymmetrical design was replicated.
The costume also has working lights on the chest plate, fiberglass armor and authentic leather accents. But perhaps the most incredible aspect of this costume is how comfortable it is to wear.
