Penny Arcade's Cardboard Tube Samurai a playable in Tekken 6 photo

The Twitter feed tekkenbob, the official feed for Tekken 6, dropped an interesting twitpic today. Along with a tweet mentioning that he "got a sneak peek at something I can't talk about yet" was the above picture. Who does that look like to you?

Gamertag Radio called it: it is Cardboard Tube Samurai, a recurring character from the web comic Penny Arcade. Mind you, this is not confirmed. We'll do our best to get something more concrete for you this weekend, but we're with GTR in guessing that they'll hold their cards close to their chests until this year's Penny Arcade Expo.

If this is legit, it's amazing that Penny Arcade has nudged their way into the Iron Fist Tournament. Nicely done, gents.

I would pick that character all the time just to piss off my friend who hates Penney arcade.

My guess would be that its a costume for yoshimitsu, but still, thats pretty sweet.

That pac-man symbol just gives it away - if it's not the cardboard tube samurai, then they're just teasing us.

A great choice. Now you guys have just got to get a destructoid character into a fighting game.
