Amazing. Is this Vader modded or stock?
No modifications just yet. It's still fresh from the box.

Thanks man. Looks killer here I must say!
There's a few things that could have been done better, especially the cape. But if you don't yet have a Vader in your collection, this is the one to buy.

So got my Deluxe Vader delivered yesterday and just opening him and setting him up.
Having a problem with putting the switch box on his belt. The hook just kinda goes in it but doesn't lock. The OWK version i think slid up to lock. This one won't. Just keeps falling off. Anyone else have the same issue? And the heads are tough to get on the stand plates. They don't pop in the hole too well. Afraid to put too much pressure trying to push them on to display them on the stand.
Always paranoid I'm gonna break something with these dsmn things. Its too stressful setting him up.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. I had the same problem. Right now it's just the inner robe and cape which is keeping it in place.So got my Deluxe Vader delivered yesterday and just opening him and setting him up.

Dang, did I miss something? Where is this hook located?

I finally got the hook to slide up. After dropping it several times and almost losing it to the portal of nowhere when things fall on the floor and just disappear... What a pain in the a$$.
I really hate these tiny fragile plugs and these power control switch boxes. Some wires go in tight, others are a little loose and feel like they could fall out. HT really needs to come up with something better. Even the switch on the stand for the lights is tiny. Always feel like I'm gonna break something. That's why my display's never change. Once they are on the shelf I never want to touch them again. Sometimes puts me off even wanting to keep buying these figures.

Look at the back of the switch box. There's an opening for the hook that slides down onto his belt. The hook was in the plastic clamshell with Vader.
what is this hook and switch box talk? Photos would really help... if you please.
Hmm.. guess will have to look again in the box. Did not see anything like that when I took him out the other day. But then again my happiness was ruined because of the broken tusk, then the lights not working out of the box, so might have missed it somehow.
Thank you both @Gipetto0812 and @loki2371

Much appreciated!
Thank you, Gipetto!
Tusk glued back, found the hook in the shell and installed. I am happy now.

Hmm, broken tusks out of the box. That's not good
Wait doesn't it come with 2 head neck pieces (that includes the tusks) so you can swap out to whatever piece is intact?
