You could always look for a new set of pants on ebay Sucks that it peeled off. I haven't had one peel that bad. Could also be your climate causing the issue. Give that shoe polish method a try. Probably the best bet is to wait and see if they ever do a nylon suit or leather suit version. 1/6...

I wouldn't mess with it. Chances are you will make it 10x worse

Good job. You're never going to notice that touch up at normal viewing angles

You could always try to repaint it. I bet you could get a can of tamiya gloss black that would work

Maybe HT will do a proper one in their artisan line

Everything is pleather on their vaders. The stuff that has peeled on mine(cape collar and boots), I painted with black liquitex basic acrylics paint and angelus black leather paint. The liquitex is pretty shiny, so it may need something to make it matte. After that, I put on angelus matte...

Yeah, all pleather is a ticking time bomb, unfortunately. It's odd that they did a nylon suit for the battle damaged vader. Probably saving it for an eventual super deluxe version...

It was 2ouble 8ight on instagram. They're in korea I think. Really fast delivery. The suits aren't perfect in that they can be stiff and tricky to get over the body due to the thicker material, but I'm pretty happy with them. Might try and really hitting them with a lot of leather conditioner to...

Tossed him on a shelf without messing with yet. No idea what pose to go with. I have another leather suit that I might put on him eventually like the OG next to him, but like the empire version, it's a beach to relocate the chest box. I put a RO robe on the OG vader because I hated the one it...

Decided to go for it since my waitlist converted. Yolo and all

I must have gotten your cancellation lol. My waitlist converted, but I'm undecided

Quick toss together of the original release with this one's robe and head sculpt(had to swap the neck pieces). I think the cape was a black series one. The one that it came with is even worse lol. Overall it doesn't look too bad with the original parts. The head sculpt is also inaccurate having...

It's actually supposed to be over the neck on RoTJ. It's wider than the previous versions

Yeah, all my capes have pleather peeling. It's because they're constantly rubbing against the neck of the sculpt. I peeled all of mine off and painted with some liquid latex paint

You can really see the orange peel in the paint in those pics. Still, you probably won't notice that unless the light hits it just right

Yeah, it's totally the empire armor and shoulder bells. Glossy armor with glossy, plain black bells plus the other parts. Really weird Edit: Here's a pic. I had taken him apart to mess with a mod. Also noticed that his shoulder bell won't attach on one side...

Looks great to me. My favorite comic version of batman. Almost went for that 3rd party one a while ago

If anyone was considering getting the new hope vader they rereleased, don't. They completely botched it by painting the armor and shoulders like empire, and the gloves/boots are glossy black

You could think of the paint flaws as being "real-world" accurate since I can't imagine batman being a professional painter with a paint booth haha

Up close I can't tell much of a difference on the ESB vs ROTJ sculpts, but zoomed out, it's like night and day improvement. ESB looks so bad haha Edit: Putting mine together and the cape doesn't have the nice weight the old ones did. Another detail I never noticed was the collar. I thought it...
