Mine is the standard, so no. Did not see any worth in the "lightning helmet" and the additional base to go for the deluxe
Not on the standard it doesn't.Shaw head comes with its own brace
Where did you see that? It is not mentioned on Sideshow and I did not have it in my standard. Just the figure that already had the Vader mask and Shaw's head packed separately - no brace. You just remove a piece from the installed mask to fit the head.That would mean the description on the Hot Toys website is omitting this detail and it's actually important .Even if the tusks aren't broken it nice to have that spare piece just in case.
The reason the Deluxe comes with 2 neck braces is b/c the deluxe comes with the ability to display all 3 heads (2 on the base, one on the figure) so it needs to come with two neck pieces. The standard doesn't include the extra display arms to display the two extra heads on the base, so no need to come with an extra neck piece. So, @satanatos is correct that the standard doesn't come with the extra neck pieceok, I can't find a review or pictures of what's in the MMS 699 standard version box when you open it.
The description on Hot Toys website says the difference between Deluxe and Standard is Lightning head and extra Base only , but you say there's also no separate neck brace for the Shaw head sculpt too, correct? That would mean the description on the Hot Toys website is omitting this detail and it's actually important .Even if the tusks aren't broken it nice to have that spare piece just in case.
Nothing beats ANH Vader.
Very True…. I have em all but really only ever needed the ANH version.. All the others are sub par compared to it.. no real advancements at all…Nothing beats ANH Vader.
ok ,thanks for clearing this up. Then the Deluxe might be worth it to get that extra neck brace in case one the tusks breaks accidentally in the future so you have a replacement partWhere did you see that?

I really need to put matrix69 on ignore. I see his stuff and it just makes me sad to see my factory default figures.
The Death Star meets regulation for handi-capable Sith Lords.Matrix, I love your poses... but I'm maybe not feeling Vader using a handrail.
The handrail is important, as Vader's inner conflict has made him weak and unsteady on his feet.Matrix, I love your poses... but I'm maybe not feeling Vader using a handrail.
His ANH Vader is hands-down the best I've ever seen. Ruined sixth scale Vader for me. Definitively.I really need to put matrix69 on ignore. I see his stuff and it just makes me sad to see my factory default figures.
