Exactly! Tarkin has been #1 on my list for years. And he turned out awesome! So excited for this figure.

I was actually thinking of selling my HT ANH Vader and this when I got it since I’ve shifted focus abit, but this will have to stay if it’d as good as it looks.

Some pictures from fb :

Looks like Peter Cushing sitting next to life-size Vader toy. Helmet doesn't look great there.

Man, all these early releases....

This looks fantastic. But I'm gonna have to hope to snag him down the road. Too many things coming out so close together.

Yeah, that's a great shot of it. My first thought was that this looks even better than the proto. So happy to have Tarkin on order. I initially had ordered the two pack, but the Vader looks nearly identical to my modded ANH Vader (I added the Rogue One belt box and gloves).

Is the chest box new on this Vader? To me it looks like the ANH version with those studs added.

But ss has reward points

The rewards points are a moot point if your saving money buying the figure somewhere else. The money you save is more than the monetary value of the rewards points in almost every purchase.
I’m in the uk and it’s always cheaper for me to buy from Hong Kong direct than use sideshow.
Sideshow charge $30 for international shipping then you get custom charges of £40 to £60 on top of that.

OMG. Cannot wait to get this. Have obi wan coming later this month too. So excited.

eBay also has rewards in the form of eBay bucks. I think they had a 6% promotion going on the last 2 days. That's how I amassed my SW HT collection last year, I only bought when it was an 8-10x eBay bucks situation.

Outfit looks improved.

Sculpt is amazing with little drop up.

Released very early.

Bravo HT.

Hot Toys' own estimate on their website still says Q2-Q3 2018. They've released this way ahead of schedule!

Maybe Hot Toys decided to stop wasting time and hired some long over due extra employees.

Looks awesome! Glad to see this is coming a bit faster. Usually these collectibles have all kinds of delays.

This is one of the fastest turnarounds. 6 months from announcement before SDCC and release.

Maybe finishing hulkbuster freed up some people? I wish we knew more about the process from prototype to production.

 

[Craig Walker]

That was quick.

Looks great.

Something definitely seems to be off with the eyes again, just like with Hoth Leia. But the rest looks really good.

Vader though just looks like crap. Hard to tell if it's the poorly futzed outfit or awkward looking body and helmet, but I'm suddenly very glad now I decided to keep my RO Vader.

Vader looks absolutely incredible !! I love the ANH look over empire . This is a grail set to own for sure .

 

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

Very excited to be getting this one, great early release. I considered getting yet another Vader with the two pack but I changed gears when the ESB Vader was put up for preorder. Hope BBTS gets the single in soon!

SIDE NOTE: I don't own RO Vader but I have seen him displayed and........DAMN NICE!!!! I have no interest in Tarkin looks good though BUT something is off with the eyes. It's taking the illusion of "alive" away from it. Nice figure though

Tarkin looks fantastic. Can’t wait to get this figure. Going straight to the top shelf.
