1/6 Hot Toys - MMS 279 - Star Wars Episode IV: 1/6th scale Darth Vader

Helmet is still off...

The WORST futzing I've EVER had the misfortune to see..... Clearly futzed by someone who's never seen Star Wars or tried to copy a screengrab from ESB off the internet on a Friday afternoon whilst drinking AND having his girlfriend/wife nagging at them at the same time.

wow...uhhh looks great...which version is this suppose to be? lol

Might add those tusks are going all sorts of directions...

 

[SwitchStance]

Neck seems pretty long.

I'm amazed that HT doesn't put more effort into futzing something the will display at a show.

I'm thinking I might like my Sideshow Vader 2.0 more than the Hot Toys version. The new pics make the Hot Toys version look terrible. Granted it is very poorly futz, but after seeing this I'm not sold on spending $300 to own another Vader.

Odd that they would paint the entire mask black instead of the usual gunmetal-black two-tone.

 

[zeiss]

I think it is two-tone. The lighting is merely dark and the gunmental grey may be darker than on previous figures.

Aren't the boots horrible?

Also folks what's up with the boxes on the belt? Well the whole thing looks pretty bad indeed...........

I'm far from a Star Wars expert but wasn't the round part of the belt 'buckle' silver in the Sideshow pics, but now here it's been changed to an inaccurate black circle?

I think it's just the lighting. Light shooting up from the bottom. Just a total fail in regards to presentation. But I don't let it get to me. In hand and properly futzed, this will look better than what we're seeing. I also have the deluxe SS Vader too.

Yeah, these pictures should just be burned. Burned off the internet. Someone set this figure up like this as a prank.

 

[Space Jockey]

Yeah, it does seem really strange that they don't set up these displays properly. Especially when these shows are the only pics we see (and are a potential selling point, instead it puts people off) until we get them in-hand.

 

[Clutters]

This looks terrible. It looks like the inevitable bootleg Force Toys version. The mask and dome have actually gone backwards in accuracy and execution.

 

[The Jerker]

I really dislike the way they did the glove/hands. His fingers look boney. Half tempted to get the SSC Vader instead.

Looking at some of the pictures from Asia Pop Comic Con all I see is....

 

[cmiller99]

Considering the drama and fuss that occurs every time a badly futzed/lit picture of a HT figure shows up on the internet, you'd think that they'd take more time with setting up the damn thing... you know, not taking out of the box and throwing it into the cabinet from across the room?
