I planned on putting the interrogation droid on Leia's stand anyway. They can keep that cheap Chips Ahoy cookie tray they are calling a mini stand..

Damn u nice pic QUI GON i must meditate on this and decide i'd love a Empire Vader chamber on next Darth Vader.
 
Decided I will pick up the HT Vader but not digging the droid. Maybe I will sell it and get a SC Vader light up base with it.
 
Scarring the plot thicken's scarring. It's Some type of nipple pinching purple nurple device that's as far i go to the darkside on that subject on that probe device.:lol:horror

One thing that makes me wonder is why in the world they painted the raised center ridge on the chest armor black. That was only on tour suits that occurred and never on any of the movie versions. They also made the chest armor too slim. It should have a return edge all around the edges and adding that would make the armor sit more accurately on the chest.
 
I've got room in my collection for two Vaders. Happy to keep my SS Deluxe and have this Hot Toys version.

Great catch on the center ridge being black - didn't notice that. Seems like it's just an error.

And you mean the chest armor should appear thicker?
 
Me too. Three once hot toys makes the jedi with reveal version.

Yes. I was thinking that as I typed the last response. SS looks good with the SS bounty hunters. HT ANH will go well with the HT Stormtroopers or Obi-wan. A HT ESB/RoTJ will go well with either Bespin Luke or Jedi Luke or a HT Emperor.
 
Having studied all facets of Darth Vader, from fact to fiction to fantasy to fanboy fan-gasm, I have come to the empirical decision that this is currently the best Vader your money can buy.

WG says it's the best, that's good enough for me :lecture
 
Buying HT Vader means selling my SS for a loss and paying extra out of my pocket for a sound feature and light up saber I will never use. I went home and looked at my SS, repositioned him and placed him on another shelf. Looks ****ing brilliant!!

If I could do a straight switch with no extra cash involved then sure. But I think I will hang on to SS Vader for now. A HT ESB/ROTJ Vader might be the time I “might” take action.

FYI – HT Vader is very nice!!

That's sound logic Bo. I think I'll hang on to my already paid for SS Vader and his mods.
