Oh, I definitely bought it. Pre-ordered it the moment it came up on sideshow. I just know that some of you are very creative in finding solutions to these type of issues, so I was checking in to see if anyone had. I have tried lifting the collar and it helps somewhat.
Yeah, they had a good Vader, but flawed, figure with the 40th anniversary version and they just keep reusing it. They could at least redo the helmet. If they upsized the vintage collection OWK Bader helmet it would look so much better.
sorry for the necroposting. Has there ben any word of medicom re-rereleasing this figure or creating a new one for tears of the kingdom? Does medicom even do RAH figures anymore? If not, i wish some other company would take on BOTW or Tears of the Kingdom Link. The original figure has gotten...
My ranking would be:
HT 1/4 ROTJ Vader
HT Kenobi Vader
HT Rogue One Vader
HT ANH Vader (either of the versions but the Tarkin 2 pack version is better than original)
Sideshow ROTJ Vader (newest version with revised helmet--should order from sideshow directly to make sure you get correct...
Hot Toys has a way of making the Vader helmet and proportions look better in their promo photos than it usually does in person. Its the way they use lighting and angles. To really tell the differences, go compare in hand pictures of HT Rogue One Vader (similar to Kenobi Vader) with HT ESB Vader...
i pre-ordered kenobi vader today. I had been waiting for HT to reveal the ROTJ version with he hopes that they would have shrunken down the quarter scale helmet. Seeing that they are using the long faced ESB helmet and stubby body, i know that the Kenobi Vader will look a lot better on the...
I doubt it. With both the hot toys and sideshow versions frequently going on sale, I would imagine that the supply of the existing versions very much outweighs demand.
They had a 20% off coupon for boxers day that made the standard version around $300 shipped if I remember correctly. I got the deluxe version for around $395 shipped (after PayPal’s crappy currency conversion).
FYI: Gizmo is in stock at baitme.com for $340. even though it is a U.S. based retailer they did not charge me for sales tax (they should have). The price for gizmo has been creeping up on the secondary market so I thought I would mention this as it is the cheapest he will likely be unless it is...
From what I gather, a 1/6 scale E.T. would be about 6 inches, maybe slightly over that if his neck is fully extended. Is that right? The neca figures are 4.5 inches so they are 1/8 scale. I am thinking that they might work in a display though would look quite short.
I also decided to bite with the 20% off coupon. I got the deluxe and the total after currency conversion was $396 to Texas. I don’t think we will get another price as good as that.
i also got the life size grogu during a recent sideshow sale so it is going to a Mando month for me.
