If you need to show him a other example of how he is supposed to look, here?s a picture of how mine is.

One the tunic is not tucked in to the belt, his under rode. Two the jacket is backwards, three the belt is upside down. So many problems here and I don?t know why. We live in 2020 we have Google 4K look up a pic. How hard can it be to get the look right.

Yeah that Vader doesnt look good. Looks like he got dressed after a really hard night out with Palps and the boys on Coruscant.

I told hims this: belt is reversed and too low (in ANH should be as close as possible to the chest-box), belt boxes too far apart, inner cape should be under the belt, and the most striking thing is the torso tunic which is reversed, velcro should have been in the back.

I also showed him these 2 pics:

He then accused me of raining on his parade... :lol

Me too, especially since he clearly declared Vader is one of his favorite characters LOL. I was simply trying to help him, but some people are not wanting any help, as "they know better"...

I dont know why he would intentionally want to make the figure look like **** considering how much they cost :slap

Yup, yup. Sad thing. Especially if it is his favorite character.

Don?t know, maybe he just likes the look? If so, I we?ll be worried to see how he has his other figures are. But oh well. So be it.

He bought the figure second hand from someone. The seller even had the audacity to tell him that the figure was unaltered and unmodified, that was new in box. But the changes you guys see in the pics above are after we (myself and 2 other group members) told him it doesn't look right and explained what to change. So the original was even worse looking than what you see above, if that is possible.
 
ANH Vader is quite a a cool figure despite its inaccuracies. After accusing me of "raining on his parade" he also decided to block me on FB, not that I would care, after all he is the one remaining with clown Vader. :)
 
That?s just weird. I guess the person in question may have issues other than .. err ... eyesight.

He might be, he also acted quite weird some time ago with another group member there.

Probably doesn't know the figure has sound effects :lol

I'm sure if he activated the sound effects, Vader would be like: I find your lack of futzing disturbing :p
 
On the one hand I don’t especially care about other people’s bad posing/futzing choices... but on the other hand I can’t fathom paying what we do for these things and being content with it looking like a mess. The guy clearly doesn’t ‘see’ what’s wrong with it. He looks at what’s on screen, looks at his figure and goes ‘looks legit’ :lol

He's probably one of those millennials who is not used to criticism. Home schooled, anti-vax, anti-mask, incel, etc. Mommy said if you hear something you don't like, just block it.

You can't help someone that doesn't want to be helped.

Just seems like a very immature person overall.
