7. The Most Confusing Vader And R2D2
Honestly, I saw this cosplay in person and it was the weirdest thing I have ever experienced. The man playing Darth Vader talked about how normally; the Darth Vader costumes are hot. So I guess that turned into this.
I wish we knew more about this story. What was the concept originally? How did they think this up? Where in the world did he get those shoes? We may never know all the answers but we do know this: this cosplay is legendary.
Granted, the R2D2 costume is adorable and just a companion piece, but the Darth Vader is something else. It truly makes you ask “who would think of that?”
The best way to describe this cosplay would be to call it the BDSM version of Darth Vader and R2D2 and even that opens up a lot of questions. Like, did they have all of this ready to go or did they plan it out ahead of time and have to go buy all of it?
We will probably never know the story behind this and maybe it’s the mystery that makes it so amazing but this cosplay will go down in history as one of the most confusing and brilliant things to ever see the light of day.
