Don't like the ESB Vader, and this is no better unfortunately.

You'd think after like 10 Vaders they at least TRY to get it right.

 

[Freakazoid!]

Probably been adressed before, but is the TESB helmet accurate to the ROTJ costume? The helmet sculpt looks like the previous HT release.

Pretty sure they just recycled the helmet.

Just like the Batman Begins figure, Hot Toys doesn't do the logical thing, which is to just shrink their already existing and superior 1/4 sculpt.

Let's just reuse an older sculpt!

So, is this the new base design we can expect to see for a while? Not sure I like the pedestal look.

The HT ESB helmet isn't even accurate to the ESB costume

Finally. Been waiting years for this Vader.

I must be either blind or one big phony because I’m not seeing the inaccuracies several people are claiming exist on this figure. It looks great, but I’m so torn between getting it vs sticking with my Kenobi version PO.. putting them side by side, the only real differences I can make out are the gloves and belt buckle

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 (similar to ROTJ Vader). They are different in body proportions (RO/Kenobi Vader have longer legs) and helmet (the tusks and eyes on the ESB/ROTJ vader make it look longer, more droopy, and less accurate). Keep in mind that none of the 1/6 Vaders look as accurate as the quarter scale version.

I won't preorder the ROTJ version unless Hot Toys changes the facemask part of the helmet. I can deal with the shortness of the legs but I can't accept long faced vader.

Pass due to the helmet. It’s so inaccurate. Kenobi helmet is much better imo. Shame too as I really was hoping for a shrunk down 1/4. Lazy Ht

So,what exactly is so inaccurate?

Wait is it confirmed this is the ESB helmet cause that thing is absolute donkey *****

i don’t think it’s “officially“ confirmed, but every photo so far matches ESB perfectly.

Much like their ESB, this figure will walk the double life of making a ton of people happy while rightfully sending accuracy hunters into apoplectic fits.

ROTJ v TESB

Same bug eyes, big mouth and droopy tusks. Maybe HT will tweak it, but i doubt it

 

[loki2371]

Even though the helmet is the same as the ESB, which is off in a few areas and not ideal, I still just PO'd this guy. Just finally gives me a reason to display Vader with the unmasked Shaw sculpt or maybe even with the cool light up deluxe Blue head.

 

[Chainedstream]

He’s up! $345, not bad. Only $45 more than their first release, the OG ANH Vader!

I can’t afford this hobby anymore….
