This is not a custom! All Original Lego Parts from Original Lego Sets!
A few months ago a Facebook user names Jerome messaged me a photo of a rare figure that he had managed to piece together using 4 Castle Sets from the year 2000. Some of you may remember this, but it was news to me. If you bought all four sets, each one came with one Chrome Silver piece to build a Knight in Shining Armor if you collected all four sets! I was able to build all four of these figures using only official Lego parts as listed below.
I took this one step further and found a Chrome StormTrooper to add to one of them to get the full armor with Chrome Legs and Chrome Torso! It was a little too expensive to do all four of these in full Chrome, but I thought they ended up looking really nice. What do you think.
Technically to do this, you need to buy one of each of these four sets. But I found a few ways around this to soften the blow on the wallet! I listed the four sets below.
As I was about to find the sets, I found this listing on eBay that had three of the four parts for 13.55.

If you get this one, you are just missing the armor which you can pick up here for $20.00. I was also able to find the armor over on Bricklink as well for about $6 – $20 depending on the country that you buy them from. If this does not work for you, you can see the sets below and check out eBay and Bricklink.
Finally, if you want the full Chrome Version, you will need to add in the legs and the torso from a Chrome Storm trooper. This will add another $40-50 bucks to the project. Here are a few on eBay. I would check around on ebay and Bricklink.
I also noticed that this seller had a partial set of the Gold Armor as well. However, it does not appear that Lego made a gold breastplate at any time.

I was contacted by Flickr User Jerome here – it appears that he has already made this figure earlier as well. He did it a little differently and he added a cape and a ninja horn. This part here. I need to pick up one of those as well!
Here are the four sets.
Thanks for looking
