HOT TOYS QS 1/4 Darth Vader (pic courtesy Seanxlong)

[cokebabies]

I'll admit--I can't tell one version of Vader from the other. But, just knowing this is from the prequels means I have to pass on principle.

I'm not great with the "his chest box was .04% brighter in ESB" stuff, but the ROTS suit has some glaring grossness to me. The symmetrical helmet is the big one, but for me the shoulder pads are what bugs me the most. They look so restrictive - it seems like using a lightsaber would work as well as throwing a football in a suit jacket that was a little too small.

Are the quarter scale figures as articulated as the 1/6 scale?

I'd bump this thread with THX217 pics:

That's one nice looking vader..

That's one nice looking Hayden in cosplay..

Fixed.

It's ROTS Vader, he's skinnier

Hipster Vader.

 

[matrix69]

Fixed.

That's the downside of the ROTS version. Good old 'miscast/wooden' hayden forever haunts the memory

Hmmm I might wait for a 1/6 version of this

 

[tjdavis1138]

Has it ever been documented why they changed the armor for ROTS?

still no info when this goes up ?

 

[Johnny Utah]

Need preorder info yesterday.

 

[Chubs&Doggers]

Probably waiting on the 1:6 vader to sell out or get close to it before this goes up for PO.

Business 101

Because George Lucas.

Edit: I derped

Though there were always changes between the movies, it being symmetrical is a no brainer though (they were never meant not to be symmetrical or get warped like they did). Also it was obviously going to be smaller with Hayden in it, it'd be weird if it goes magically from Hayden to normal size Vader (which is a lot bigger ;p).
