Premium Format Darth Vader [ROTJ]

[DerekDeS]

Yes, mostly because of Boba and also because I only paid $350 for the original PF and an increase to $429 would be inline with the increases to other PF's

Yeah, but this days are gone, i paid 230€ for my Talon (my first PF and day one Order ), 300$ for Shaak Ti and 320€ for Darth Malgus....and the € was like 20% stronger than these days...

Plus: Vader is in the films 2,02 meter (6,8 feet), so with the base and Vader himself, he will be roughly 24-30 inches tall plus (likely) Light Up feature
and "everyone knows Vader" Bonus and Ep7 Hype, i would be surprised to find a price tag under 500 bucks...

Price is $499.99

And there is no EX.

I don't see any mention of a light up chest box or belt. If these don't light up its an instant pass for me.

They only mention the saber and the chest box isn't lit in any of the pictures. This is an easy pass for me.

Link?

Do not underestimate the power of Sideshow’s Darth Vader Lord of the Sith

“You underestimate the power of the Dark Side.”

Ruthless and unyielding, Darth Vader stands at the height of his power in Sideshow’s Star Wars Darth Vader Lord of the Sith Premium Format™ Figure.

Inspired by one of the most climactic duels in cinematic history, Darth Vader descends the steps of a Death Star themed base. With his light-up crimson lightsaber at the ready, the commanding villain is prepared to engage in mortal combat and claim victory for the Galactic Empire.

Every detail of the Sith Lord’s costume, from his iconic helmet to his sweeping black cape, have been faithfully recreated as seen on screen in Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi.

The height and composition of this impressive piece make it an ideal companion to Sideshow’s Boba Fett Premium Format™ Figure, and the perfect centerpiece of any Star Wars collection!

I thought the pose was way off in the teaser video but I love this. Wow. I'm shocked. I like every picture. I'm totally getting him to go with the Fett PF.

 

[marker2037]

I love it. The pose is killer. So much better than was teased in the video. Points will be used

Price is what I was figuring anyway. Sold!

 

[Khev]

Turning the head to his left makes all the difference. Fett and Vader look insane together.

 

[slynger]

I don't see any mention of a light up chest box or belt. If these don't light up its an instant pass for me.

Product description - "With his light-up crimson lightsaber at the ready"

 

[Tuskeraider78]

I thought he would come with a switchout non masked /helmet head like they showed in the early concept art.
Also if there is light up feature in his chestplate it's a pass, I'm gonna stick with my cinemaquette then

It doesn't say whether the chest box or belt light up though. Wish there was an exclusive though.

A crimson lightsaber is not a chest box and belt.

 

[myc]

ok for $500 they need to confirm that the chest box and belt lights are working..

besides.. it looks much better in those pictures..

No EX is very disappointing at that price point ! So there is NO RUSH at all and I will wait out if HT comes up with one as well

 

[BurningRage]

Gonna wait for $20 coupon since there is no ex version.
