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

Yes, I guess that's how it is. I don't know if that's screen accurate, but maybe Hot Toys got a cape from Anovos and just scaled it down: https://www.anovos.com/products/star-wars-darth-vader-premier-line-cape-accessory

Just got shipping notice from Popcultcha. Looking forward to seeing this one in the flesh.

Man, what a cool piece. DX releases are incredible unboxing experiences but nothing, NOTHING can prepare you for the wow factor that is a 1/4 unboxing. This is hands down the best SW figure by HT. Ready to see the stormtrooper now.

Nice pose, how hard is it getting the hands on the belt like that?

 

[K1NG J0RDAN]

Thanks, you definitely have to accept that it isn’t going to be perfect. I futzed with it for quite a while.

There's no hem at the bottom of the cape on mine. Like the 2 layers aren't sewn together at the bottom. Is that right?

All the capes are open at the hem...which works handy for ironing out the wrinkles on the inner silk lining

Mine is the same way. And is anyone else's base wobbly?

It's very wobbly alright but the back pole/post fittings should keep it secure...i still think it's a poor design but i guess it fits in with other 1/4 scale HT pieces..
I would've been happy with just the one standard base with a light-up feature...

The old SS deluxe vader stand works great as an alternative...

 

[DarthRusty]

Oh wow! That really looks great!

Can you post picks of how much you cut? It looks fantastic and I want to do it to mine!

That's the amount of thickness I used, give or take. Anymore and I don't think his outfit would close properly.

Figure looks awesome. But I am collecting one sixth and personally don't like different scales displayed together. So, I have to pass. But if I didn't have any one sixth, this would be the one figure I'd buy.

You just have to make it work in a way that doesn?t take away from your 1/6 stuff.

This figure looks so incredible--thank you all for your photo contributions. ...rushes off to place order ASAP...

Yeah I do tend to think these look better displayed on their own like that, instead of inserted into a detolf with a bunch of 1/6 figures.

I watched this up until release thinking it would be a relatively easy pass, but it's becoming harder and harder to pass this thing up. The fact that it's an action figure seems to pull it out of the uncanny valley most statues seem to get trapped in, being awesome but still somehow off, by making it look like an actual dude in a suit.

I thought the same thing at first, but after seeing everyone's pics and videos(and being a huge Vader fan), getting this figure was a must! The two scales are not that bad looking together.

Cool thanks

 

[BrooklynWolf X]

Cool thanks

Forgot to mention, I didn't undress him all the way. I inserted the foam under the first layer.

 

[sithocan]

You'll make me go bankrupt.

 

[ZillaFan]

Where are you stuffing that foam?

LOL. I feel the same way but once you have it in your hands, you will be amazed!!!
