Premium Format Darth Vader [ROTJ]

[JAWS]

Not to derail the Vader thread, but the Droids PFs were amazing! I hope everyone here was able to get them!

Yes they are great to have.. Glad I got mine

Not me. Hence my frustration.The price was so outrageous for a PVC R2 that I didn't get around to it until it was too late.

Anyway, on to Vader.

Price was the same and R2 was still PVC.... Why did the passage of time change your feelings? They were available for some time.

Now they are gone.

Why did you wait shoo... WHY!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, the Attakus one does nothing for me.

$500??!!! WAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!

It actually looks a lot better in the photos than in their preview video to me for some reason.. the chest and belt don't light up?

The Boba Fett PF looks more tempting to get now, but the prices!!!

The semi-profile (wide) shot still looks like a "Phantom of the Opera" pose as he's belting out a high note.

Well, I wasn't into film statues back then, and, while tempted, I honestly thought I had plenty of time. My feelings are still the same about price and PVC, though, I would just like to still have the option.

I thought the price was ridiculous too..... til I unboxed them. That changed everything. PVC or no. They knocked them out of the park. Still, I understand your POV.

I had the same experience. I bought the second last set that BBTS had in stock. I couldn't bring myself to pay for a plastic R2. Once I unpacked them, I was floored! That changed my opinion of the use of plastic or PVC in statues. Really, the important thing is how does it look on a shelf. Not how much does it weigh or is it or isn't it polystone.

Jesus 30 inches ... can't fit that anywhere in a besta QQ

 

[KingB]

Yeah, I'm not understanding the heights they are taking these PFs. I wish they would go out more with their bases sometimes.

 

[dao2]

I'd be more fine with the height if it wasn't really filler. The base can be quite easily halfed and look better :<

I like it more than I thought I would after that video and will order. It's probably my second favorite Vader statue out now. I rank it above Sideshow PF Vader 1 and the Cinemaquette. I have never seen the Attakus Vader 1 statue in person but the simple pose is so iconic to me that I rank it number 1 still. That said, I wish I could see it in person to really judge it. Love this shot:



I wish Sideshow would make one without the lightsaber. The plastic saber cheapens the look of the statue and I never turn them on.

Overall I LOVE the look of Boba and Vader together, ordering both!
