The Way of the Cardboard Tube Samurai

So yesterday as I was going to dinner, I was contacted by a TekkenBob, who attached a picture that he stated was from the upcoming Namco Bandai fighter, Tekken 6.  There was not much else in the email, except for a Twitter name, and that more details would be following.  So as I looked at the picture I tried to figured out what was so special with it until I got a follow up email from TekkenBob that spilled the beans.  It seems that the character above is none other than Cardboard Tube Samurai, a creation of Gabe and Tycho, over at Penny Arcade.

I cannot wait to see the special attacks that can be made with two tubes of cardboard.  Would you feel shame in getting beat down by this character in Tekken 6.

Finally, TekkenBob said that more news and images would follow, with a big announcement possibly coming next week.

    It would be hilarious if they made his cardboard tubes eventually start bending until they become useless (like real cardboard tubes).
