Oh.. I'm quite aware of the differences. I wear an ROTJ Vader for the 501'st. That said, I would love a PF ROTJ Vader... if it were accurate.
 
That is true they are close but there are differences. Honestly one of the things that piss me off is mixing both ESB and ROTJ by licensees to come up with one "Uber Vader". Cinemaquette looks to be doing that. I don't really are which Vader we get ROTJ or ESB (although I'd love an ROTJ to go with the Luke ROTJ PF and the on tap Emperor PF) but I definitely want SSC to stick with one and have it be accurate and not mix the two since apparently LFL could give a ____ about it

Cinemaquette isn't trying to do that -- I think it's just the reference suit they have -- I have a sneaking suspicion that it's the Michael Burnett lifesize figure they're using as reference -- that'd explain the smaller chest piece for sure --and the cod piece-- (except it wouldn't account for the lack of inaccurate bubble lenses).

The fact that they have an ESB base and backdrop, even says ESB on the plaque, but with a reveal helmet isn't the fault of bad references. Its taking artistic license directly.

ESB and ROTJ Vaders are VERY close costume wise. Most people I think would be hard pressed to see the differences.

I was just referring to pieces that are representative of the movie itself more than costume accuracies. We have a ANH representation which has a pose clearly from said movie, and I just hope that they do so for the rest of the movies as well (except for RotS, ewww).


Also, The Mike, who is that hotness in your new sig? And didn't you just change it recently, how fast do you go through them?
 
as much as i'm an old school vader fan, the new rots outfitdid grow on me its am more youthful version of him.newly machined, assembled...they pulled off the newness of it...its cleaned up
and streamlined...that said,i am most attached to the og versions the same way you are accustomed to seeing the face of a familiar personality in their heyday.
 
Another Vader PF will be cool to see. But I love and proudly own the 1st one.
