Wow, VHS. I loved my VHS player and Dolby surround system on my huge 27" Sony Trinitron. Those were the days.

Can't remember the last movie I saw on VHS...either a music video or porn.
You're a betamax guy huh?
Ah Trinitron. That's class right there.
Full semi-fish-eyed CRT... even though they called my set a "flat screen". Oh yeah, no expense was spared. True letterboxed movies gave me over 13 inches of screen excitement.

And there we go, back to porn again.

Yeah I think I'll be ordering this with a coupon soon, does this months work on him yet?
Looks like they finally lowered the dome a bit, but it still doesn't seem to flare out as much as it should.
So guess this is yet another expensive Vader figure that could be improved with a Hasbro dome.

I'm not overly picky with these like some of you so I'm really happy with how this looks.

Looks like they've fixed the chest armor too. Or he's just futzed better.

I'd say futzed; maybe repositioned helmet and the face looks to have a more detailed paint job.

In the last picture his mask/helmet look really good to me, I just think the neck is too long, and the helmet skirt too long
If I get him and feel the same in hand, I think sanding those down would be one of the first mods I'd do

Very nice, looks like the dome is sitting a tad lower in that pic.

This Vader looks awesome but I'll be staring for hours at source material before pressing any order button. For the price I pay I want the dome to be 100%.

Hasn't happened yet. Won't for a long time if ever.
The Imperial Probe Droid by SSC comes in damn close...everything else, Hot Toys or Sideshow...has one issue or another. Many of which can be futzed or modded.

The way I see it, everyone who will be looking at our collections won't care or notice any inaccuracies. When I look at the above photo of Vader, I see a damn fine looking Vader and that's about all I need to see to know this will be a great addition to the collection.
