Wait, I can't tell are the cheeks asymmetrical? That dome looks almost like the SS deluxe dome - too small to be the HT dome..

Shoot, I just bought one for the hell of it.

Cheek seems simmetrical to me. But dome is bigger than ss one. More like hasbro size.

Sorry for the ot....I will post the same picture on my vader thread...
 
Question for you all. I'm putting this in here because it's about this Vader. I have HT ANH Vader and Leia but I have to sell one of them, medical bills are kicking my ***. They're both brand new. I have the RO HT Vader. Which one should I keep? I'm a huge Vader fan and would like both HT but I don't have any Leia stuff. But I am hoping that HT will do ESB Leia because that's the one I want. I'm torn on which one of these to keep. Any advice would be welcome. Thanks.
 
do what you need to take care of yourself!! these are just things that can be reacquired when you can, but your health cannot.
 
My wee army of vaders.

Great shot! :clap
I love your esb vader, and the kayiodo chest armour looks great on your anh vader. I' m waiting for a kayiodo chest armour and your picture remember me that I need it. I really need it. Great vaders indeed! :clap

Wise words.




Beautiful. And very interesting to see them all lined up.

I still like the 3rd best (HT ANH w- RO gloves but I know you did a lot of work on it).

Poor SS Deluxe pin-head Anakin... looking forward to the eventual HT version for sure. Hope they just go swap-out head and avoid the pin-head or over-sized mask.

I'd sell the R1 Vader. You can probably sell it for more money right now being that it's hot at the moment and people seem to be willing to pay higher prices for it than the ANH Vader, thus covering more of your medical bills.

Then you can just essentially replace it later on by getting ESB Vader at retail and having ANH Vader and ESB Vader.

Leia is hot right now also, but I'd personally bank on HT doing ESB Vader first before an ESB Leia. I have a feeling Vader for SW is going to be like Iron Man for Marvel to HT. They're going to make one any chance they get.

Yep what he said. The ANH one has a unique look, when HT do an ESB Vader, the R1 version will probably go down in price

Yes, been seeing it around.

Hahahahah sorry. I know...can you tell I haven't posted in a while. Also I've had that helmet since July and only last night was able to get the right head peg to put it on the figure. Love Darth Vader.

What is the recipe? Looks great

Thank you!

It is simply the Sideshow Return of the Jedi Darth Vader with the Hot Toys head on top. I used the Man of steel neck peg to get the head onto the body. It is difficult somewhat to get the peg into the Sideshow neck adaptor, but I put the neck adaptor in boiling water and it made it much easier to push the neck peg into it. I am a huge Darth Vader fan and I'm happy with the one I have now. I am eagerly waiting a 1/4 scale.

Thanks for both of your responses. My health isn't super terrible right now but it was. It's just the bills from that time is why I was needing to sell one or the other. HT Leia or HT Vader.
