The man behind Project Grizzly (the topic of Quentin Tarantino’s favorite film of 1996) has a new protection suit ready for soldiers.

“The whole suit — which draws design inspiration from Star Wars, RoboCop, Batman and video games — is made from high-impact plastic lined with ceramic bullet protection over ballistic foam.

The whole suit comes in at 18 kilograms. It covers everything but the fingertips and the major joints, and could be mass-produced for about $2,000, Hurtubise says.”
