1/6 Hot Toys MMS699 & MMS700 ROTJ Darth Vader

[matrix69]

No way to flatten the cape on the shoulders? Even water treatment?

I don't know if water will work, but it's worth a try. It looks like they've tried to stitch the cape shoulders to fit/match the contour of the armour underneath. It's just bizarre.

TESB and R1 capes are way nicer, but the collar is inaccurate to ROTJ and will need to be modified.

Maybe JAXON will make some better capes if he gets the numbers.

Is the body suit made of pleather?

Yes.

The suit is same as the OWK version, in that it feels tougher and more ridged that all the previous versions. So it may last longer.

The leather on my Tarkin Vader has started to go. Would this suit fit that body?

Yes it will, but if you care about accuracy you'll have to mix and match, as the chest box on this version is fixed into the vest, and can't be moved.
So you could use the pants and inner vest from this version along with outer vest on the Tarkin Vader.

That's what I ended up doing for my ANH Vader. OWK suit is not quite as tight fitting to the ANH body but it works well enough.

The light up helmet is a nice accessory.

I might stand it in the window this coming Hallows eve. It should frighten the little beggars away.

Thanks for that. It's only the pants for now that are flaking. Hopefully HT does another for the 50th with a full nylon suit.

Probably a good bet. Vader is the new fett and mandalorian.

And there’s an important one that remains: Ep. III Vader. I seriously hope they make it in 1/6. I recall they had that prototype in 1/4.

Personally, one of my grails and favorite Vader costume design.

I wonder what the 50th ROTJ Vader will look like

Lots of added texture.

No more pleather Vader for me. If they will ever release a nylon one or a full leather, then I'm in. Otherwise pleather is a no go in my books

I’m sure it’s on the way next year. I would like it to include the operating table.

that's why I might keep my R1 and not trade it in

$750

If that version is made I would get it. Iconic scene even though when I initially saw it I found it corny.

 

[HyperDrive]

Just some pics. Sorry couldn’t help myself. It’s a damn cool Vader costume design. Absolutely deserves to be made in 1/6, imo.

Worth the lining up.

I'm betting the up coming ROTS version will be the first to sport the new nylon suit in all it's glory.
