This guy showed up at a friend's daughter's b-day party.... does his helmet look accurate...?

We might have to take a dremel to that guy's head to see if we can fit the dome on right.

For ****'s sake Jazz that is the best dio I've seen.

No disrespect to the other good ones out there, but this is also versatile - all the characters look great placed in there.

My Vader

did some slight weathering on the belt , also repainted the grey buttons dark grey ( from the books i have about the costume I m pretty sure they are a darker grey then the hot toys grey - let me know if I am mistaken ) .
Other then the voice problems i think this is pretty much perfect except i want to chang ethe coour of the shoulder armour chest armour piece , it doesnt seem correct . I m sure Hot Toys could of done it but were worried that people would think it was shoddy paint and not buy it . ( thats my theory ). I think hes great , i wish though i kept my original ANH Sideshow vader, I would so use the gloves from that .

I also repainted the red square on his chest piece because the HT one was too dark

I used tamiya gloss clear on the shins, but used a light spray so it wasnt full gloss. My Costumes book says they are semi gloss to gloss

Jazz, that display is just...

 

[JazzInc]

Thanks guys! Here are two more pictures

 

[Lejuan]

So much life in that display. It looks so casual. Outstanding.

 

[Aliaz]

Jazz: that is so awesome I can't even find words for it!

 

[QuiGonFishing]

Very cool, GP! Looks like Vader is outside going on a hike. "After killing a subordinate officer, I like to clear my thoughts in nature."

 

[maru81]

Wow museum quality...speechless. Good job Jazz.

 

[inchy5000]

Jazz that looks unbelievable, I feel like I am looking at stills from the movie.

 

[Darth Fok]

Jazz that is *****king awesome, which body did you use for the stormtrooper Han?

 

[JazzInc]

Tall storm trooper body from the set. Short one is standing in the corner

 

[TurdFurgusonsHat]

I agree with everyone else jazz, that dio is fantastic! Did you custom make all those wall panels?

 

[Bmacattack]

I was okay with waiting but these last few pages are making me jealous. Sideshow needs to ship that next batch already!

 

[Space Jockey]

That dio is pretty incredible. Nice job.

Yes. I made vector designs that i had machined. Then I painted it
