He and Sparrow look like Figure of the Year contenders.
Eager for your pictures...
Mine just came in. Took less than 24 hours to get from California to Ontario. Faster than Fedex, for sure. I took a quick look at it before packing it back up until I get home from work. Looks incredible.
Question about the body: how sturdy are these slim Hot Toys bodies? I couldn’t quite get the arms moving up at the shoulder joints but I didn’t want to use too much force and risk breaking it.
Thanks Wor-Gar
...yes i steamed the tunic...but due to how easy the material is to wrinkle...it will need another steaming when i repose him...
They're pretty strong...i've had no issues with mine...although the tight fitting tunic limits posability
Cool. Thanks for the info.
So forgive my annoying question I’m not reading back dozens of threads...
Vaders upgrades are that he has the rogue one belt hands and cape right? That’s it?

You talking about this Tarkin-Vader Vader... or Matrix's custom?
Definitely the best in-hand figure I've seen in a long time.
the standard Vader in the taken 2 pack. what differs from the first ANH release

The damn shoulder bells are black.
Its the ANH mask/helmet (same mask as all 3 but always new paint) and the same ANH body (complete with speaker holes but no electronics), also same original ANH robe, cape, body suit and codpiece. Not sure if the boots are the new RO boots or same old ANH ones. Gloves, belt + chest box are RO.
That's my understanding anyway, but I don't have it in hand.
thanks bud that clarifies it for me. And about all I kept from the RO one I bought to upgrade my original ANH. Specifically the gloves obviously and the belt.
I also replaced the cape with the RO one even though it didn't have the outer lining on it it hung much better.

Yep, I also have that same stuff to upgrade my ANH. I'm going to try the RO tunic/robe as well to better match the RO cape.
The only thing I never got was the RO belt boxes. They are nicely painted but I think the same other than that. I'll just need to weather mine.

I recently just got an ANH tunic/robe for my RO Vader so I can display as ANH when Tarkin arrives. I didn't want to take all the pleats out of the RO tunic.
I don't really care for the spongy nature of the material on the ANH cape and robe. And the robe is so tight on the figure that you cannot create folds or anything.
I've heard that the RO robe has more room. But yeah, if you don't want to undo the pleats than it doesn't really look right.
No ideal robe out there yet. Maybe the Empire robe will be the 'next try'?

As I was setting up my figure, I knew I had to try a pointing finger pose. This is what I settled with for now.
Showing up sideways for me. Eh whatever, you get the idea.

“Signature pose” is impossible with that uniform unless I want to dislocate Tarkins shoulders.
