   At £595.54 + £69.99 UK delivery you seriously must have more money than sense on this occasion.On a more positive note this is the only Darth Vader costume out there with a proper nob slot cut into the cod piece part of the costume so you can whip out your wee prawn at your leasure without having to spend 4-5 hours taking the costume off.I suppose if you really wanted to jazz this up you could automate the slot opening so by remote control your wee chopper could be exposed to any of the Star Wars fans in your area, you light even get lucky and someone might touch it which lets be honest would be the first time in your life that it happened.

   At nearly 67 years old perhaps I should be past this sort of stage but over Christmas I watched some of the earlier Star Wars movies on TV and started thinking what fun it would be to transform into the Dark Lord himself, Darth Vader, one of the most iconic villains in cinema history. After a day or so searching the internet I decided that probably the best costume for me would be the Rubies DeLuxe Supreme Edition Darth Vader Costume. The price varies enormously from one supplier to another. The best price I found was here at Amazon UK. Now to the costume itself. It’s big. I am 6 feet tall but rather skinny with a 34″ waist and a chest that’s not much wider. I am definitely going to have to use some shoulder padding under the jump suit to broaden my shoulders as the chest plate is very wide on my slim frame. Apart from that this costume really does look the part and once my lightsaber arrives ( yes I bought one of those too – you can’t be DV without one) and I find suitable boots (not included with the outfit) my transformation into Lord Vader will be complete. One of the reasons I opted for this more expensive suit is that the cape is full length stretching right down to the ground. Much more sinister than the shorter capes with cheaper costumes. The mask and helmet are awesome and even chill ME when I look at them. This one comes with a battery operated breathing device which is effective but doesn’t sound exactly like the respirator in the films. I’m quite fortunate in that I can do a pretty fair impression of Darth Vader speaking and I have bought a wireless voice amplifier with a head mike and a belt mounted black speaker unit (small and unobtrusive) so that I can actually speak as Darth Vader but with my voice amplified to complete the illusion when in costume. Quibbles – only minor. The chest and belt mounted light boxes require batteries and the lids to the compartments are screwed shut. I had great difficulty unscrewing all three, they were really tight. I got them open eventually but I was afraid of breaking the units, they shouldn’t be as tightly screwed as they were. The cloak in the photos has grey strips which match the breast plate. My cloak is completely black. That’s fine as it looks very menacing and I don’t intend complaining, but it’s not as shown. Anyway, if you want a life-like DV costume this is probably the best unless you are prepared to pay stratospheric sums for an exact replica. Roll on Halloween.

   Item came and smelled damp, may have been stored or shipped and water has dried in. Either way I wouldn’t have kept it as it’s too much for such a screen inaccurate costume. Not amazons fault
