Interesting if we get another Vader so soon. I'm happy with my ANH Vader, and after JKNO's pictures I'll have to consider sending him to JazzInc for mods.

That Snowtrooper though! Give me!
 
Is this ANH Vader???

Yes it is ANH. Look at the chest box buttons and compare it with ESB/ROTJ ones.
 
I'm hoping that's a Rogue One Vader that will be cheaper than the ANH version. I'm assuming it wouldn't need to come with the interogator droid which would bring the price down.
 
Could be rogue one. It's certainly not the anh straight out of box. And I doubt hot toys would mod their own figure before displaying. Tunic is under armour, cod piece and belts look raised.

It's definitely Rogue One.

Some merchandising images have come out of the Vader from R1, and a lot of folks have been annoyed that the tunic is under the armor because the movie is supposed to end something like 10 minutes before A New Hope begins. Why would he rearrange his costume 10 minutes before boarding the Tantieve IV?

This was a futz of their ANH Vader from September of last year. Don't think we can jump to the conclusion that this is Rogue One Vader just yet.

If this the old one then they armor-alled Vader's helmet. The ANH Vader already released didn't have that shiny of a helmet.

That blows!
 
Still doesn't explain why he's in a case with all upcoming releases. Might make sense if it was to complete an imperial display but yoda is sat there...

They're upset about the RO Vader cape placement leading into ANH - which there might be a reason for - but aren't upset about the stormtroopers looking different up-close compared to the ANH stormies (and yes, you can see stormies up close in ANH to pretty clearly notice the differences)?

The fact that RO ends ten minutes before ANH begins does make the stormie tweaks a strange choice. I like the tweaks (making it more "real",) but they are different to all the stromies that follow in ANH ESB and ROTJ.
 
When we see Vader in Rogue One it could be over the course of several days. Perhaps at some point his inner robe could be placed under his chest armor, but towards the end of the movie it's back over the armor.
