Wow -- baby Groot already replaced Boba Fett in the banner.

Sideshow doesn't pay out affiliate money to Star Wars products, so it's really of no use to Dave if Fett is in there. Groot will make the forum money, Boba won't.

People can't wait to wake up in the morning to get their next morsel of non info, it's addictive.

Star Wars booth at Toy Soul in the back. Maybe we'll see Vader and Obi there? Wish they would just announce them already.

And look what pops up.

EDIT: Here they are. Let the nitpicking begin.

They both look great. For some reason I like the Obi more than the Vader.

There's something off about Vader
Looks like he's wearing a diaper

Vader looks great. The "diaper" looks more prominent because his cloth isn't covering it. Generally we don't see the entire thing.

That's what I thought too.

I think they're just using another body as a holder for the prototype while they're making a more specified body for Prowse's build.

Kinda like what they did with the Man of Steel fig with the Terminator body in the promos.

Re: Hot Toys Darth Vader Sixth Scale Figure

Is Vader's codpiece a bit odd, or just oddly positioned? The gloves are kinda billowy and the bodysuit kinda pillowy. But looks great, I'm pre-pre-ordering the pair.

Proportionally, the best Vader I have seen. Overall, it seems like the best representation of a man in a suit. Body suit looks perfect too.

Sir Alec Guiness' portrait need some tweaking, IMO. I think the only things that make it better than the classic Sideshow 1/6 release are the sculpting of the hair and the paint.

Re: Hot Toys Darth Vader Sixth Scale Figure

The chest box seems too small. Other than that it's beautiful.

I'm not a fan of the sculpt as well. Something off with the eyes and it generally looks like a younger Alec. I think the eyes are throwing it off the most though.

Pretty good, he seems to be just as tall as both the SS vader's though.

And they f'ed up the helmet ... How come Hasbro got it right but SS and HT can't ?

Re: Hot Toys Darth Vader Sixth Scale Figure

This is ANH Vader right? What if Hot Toys got the unsymmetrical look of the helmet had in the movie, that would be pretty cool.

Can't tell from the pics
