If the next one turns out much better, I'll just sell this one. Plain and simple.
I'm gonna keep my pre-order. It still looks like the best sixth Vader to-date.
I sold my SS Deluxe Vader because I didn't like it. But I think this one is awesome. And I need one to pose with Luke and Palpatine now, not in 2025.
If those mistakes never were mentioned here, I would probably never have noticed them

(like Black Panther figure needs a bigger bulge.)
Yes, it looks like the best 1/6 Vader out there so far. Forums like this are good for pointing out areas of improvement though (like Black Panther figure needs a bigger bulge .)
Maybe for the meditation chamber scene
They normally receive stock 5/6 weeks after the Hong Kong release. I originally thought they'd get it the same time, so it's a heads up to get the other 80% ready next month.It looks good enough so I'll buy it.
no news from KG hobbies where I pre-ordered it and paid 20% already
My only worry is the ability to place the dome correctly since it looks very loose .Maybe it is a magnet after all though since it looks like a metal part holding it
Looks really nice, but like the RO version I don't feel I NEED it. I'd love to have all the HT Vader's on my shelf, but too pricey with wanting other SW figures and of course space.
My favorite Vader version is ANH, which I have (v1 with v2 gloves & boots). And since the ESB is nearly identical to ROTJ, I feel I should just wait since that will have a full reveal headsculpt. The base is cool, but not something I'd use and it would just stay in the box. I have enough SS rewards to get either ESB Vader or ESB Deluxe Fett for just about free. Was waiting to see final production pics of this guy. I think you get more for your money with Fett.
Still undecided.
I think I'll stick with my Rogue One/ ANH version 2 mash up. I have both helmets (one for the original beat up look, one for glossy), both tunics (hate hate hate pleats in his tunic, not accurate to any Vader that I can think of). I may spring for his gloves so I can have a pseudo Empire Vader. I just cannot justify the money when I am really happy with this Vader. I hope the stupid part of my brain doesn't kick in and say I need Empire Vader....

At this point I’m going with a pass on it, pretty much for all the points you mentioned.
Prices are too high and with other desired characters, space is limited to have multiple Vaders. Ideally, I think ANH Tarkin, ESB Vader and RotJ Emperor would make for the perfect triumvirate of the main OT antagonists from each respective film. And ESB is my favorite SW film. However, ANH Vader is my favorite look for Vader and already having the majority of the ANH cast of characters, it’d look incomplete without Vader.
I’m content with having ANH Vader as being my sole Vader.
