Premium Format Darth Vader [ROTJ]

[LOTRfan85]

Sideshow has not even received a factory sample they've been pleased with. How long does it take to manufacture a mixed media statue with light ups? I still think we won't see this piece until Q1 2017. I really hope I'm wrong!!

I am hoping it is a 2017 release if this is true since I am not getting it until 2017, nothing has been announced about a change in date, so probably expect this piece to be released this year

Nice! I wish I had snagged a few LOTR pieces back in the day.

But yea I think the Sith or Dark Side PF's are going to look great next to each other!

A few are always popping up, keep an eye out. I may add a 4th with the annoucement of darth maul

What added features could they mean? Just the light up stuff?

Saber, chest box and base light up.

 

[inchy5000]

Why do the lights on the chest box alternate on and off? Seems strange, is that movie accurate?

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

It's got 3 different switches

Pretty sure it is

Wow the light up effects especially the blinking lights on the chest is gorgeous. Only thing is the saber, looks kinda light, like the mech Maul, but overall satisfied.
Cant believe this costs $499 incomparison with current pricing(albeit this piece was announced last year)
Cant wait to recieve mine

Very nice! I wish they would have given a release update.

 

[Manhunto]

not sure about silver down base but I gonna buy him. worth 500$

 

[inchy5000]

Pretty sure it is

Watched some scenes on YouTube, it is indeed movie accurate (although in the movie it does not light up in a pattern like on the statue).

All in all it's pretty cool. I've said in other threads that I have never bothered with light up features, but the implementation here is fantastic.

"It will be a day long remembered. It has seen the end of less than $500 statues and will soon see the end of the hobby as we know it."

I think I'm going to wait until after SDCC and then order him.
