Thanks Sean... interesting that it's paper art, I didn't even notice and assumed it was a stencil of some kind. Good way to create graffiti though - pre-print at home, stick on wall, run away. :D

I walk past this daily and wondered who was responsible, there is a bigger piece on the wall next to the Lexus Showroom (you need to be on the same side of the road, but walking towards Soi 20) featuring the Justice League.

There is also another Samurai across Sukhumvit just down from the MRT station.

They are not standard graffiti as they are actually printed on paper and pasted to the wall....

Still nice art.

If Darth Vader were a Samuraui, would he die by honour then? I totally remember Luke getting a good hit on his cyorg bits in The Empire Strikes Back. Isn't that like an automatic win in a Samuraui Duel? Bushido suicide isn't as much as a crowd pleaser guess though.

After telling a Thai about how he seems to attract monkeys wherever he goes my friend was called "Lord of the Ling" (ling being the Thai word for monkey). This still cracks me up. Proof, were it needed, that Thais are pretty, pretty smart.

Thai's are not the greatest fans of star wars, add to that i don't think Thai have a crisp English skills like If you seek peace plan for war...Its very unlikely that a average Thai could have come up with that caption :o)

All fingers point to a farang.... who could mix war and peace with star wars and Vader....hmmm...may be leanard and sheldon gang from bing bang theory ;o)
