You
know a film in on completely different league than most, when even pieces of
concept art are subject to intense scrutiny as they may or may not be real. Today
Making Star Wars claim to have come across two pieces of concept art for J.J.
Abrams Star Wars: Episode VII, and according to them they feature a new never before
seen villain that looks like Shredder from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and
Darth Vader. Intrigued? Here is the description they offer.
"The
helmeted figure faces left. This is a profile picture. The black cape flows
outwards and the figure is in an attack stance, lightsaber held out in front,
with both hands on the hilt. The lightsaber is red and has some motion to it as
if it was just swung. Everything is black, the gloves, the pants, the boots,
the mask. The helmet looks like a samurai helmet. If you took Shredder from
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and removed all the ornate additions from the
helmet, you could have something similar. The back is kind of like Vader’s
helmet but it is short, it just protects the back of the head, leaving the neck
exposed. The face is covered. But you can see the eyes. This costume is Darth
Vader if he were a ninja. Where the eye holes are, there is some light colored
design. It has a good vibe about it. It reminds me of Shredder, a little bit of
someone from Cobra in the old G.I. Joe and he has a black flowing cloak and red
lightsaber which makes it look very cool."
