It's a Hemipteran of some sort (a true bug). I think it's probably some type of leaf footed bug (if you google that you can compare it to your pics).

Yup, it's some sort of leaf footed bug. I'm going through my entomology books looking for it, but without a photo of its back and without knowing the size it's hard to identify which one. Gorgeous little bug though. I have a friend that raises similar looking ones in him dorm room.
