you can def see the red tint in his lenses in these pics. is the red more noticeable in person? or how is it

I think it's very noticeable in person, it's very cool. When I shine my flashlight into the lenses, I don't know if my eyes are playing tricks on me, but I think I can see his eyes as well.

Backdrop looks great. I had the same idea a couple days ago and ordered this similar one from ebay that will serve as the backdrop to mine:

That's very unfair. The only thing that's barely worth something of the Original SSC Vader is the suit. Everything else is off in every possible way. At this scale, the only thing of HT ANH Vader I find blatantly wrong is the shoulder armor (well...and the gloves). Out of the box is still decent, modded can be perfect.
Yeah the HT vader 'while not perfect' is still a huge leap forward from the old SS versions...

Love that light-up death star!
 
Here's the one I got:

It's 'reversable' so you can display it with the super laser on either side. This one doesn't have a remote although it's an LED so should
Be able to stay on pretty long without any heat issues.

Thanks for the link, I've also ordered one. That will make one sick Vader display, especially with a CCFL saber.

I am doing the Sideshow conversion to the HT ANH helmet (and the RO whenever I can get just the helmet) and I was told by other forum users to get the Man Of Steel neck peg (or a figure with that same type of neck peg). Mine is in the mail and I'll post a pic with the ANH HT helmet on the SS ROTJ Vader. After seeing your pics, I've been swayed to pursue a RO helmet.

Please do let us know how this goes. I've already shined up a HT ANH helmet in anticipation of doing the same thing.
 
Just cancelled my wait list. Local shop by me has for $10 above what I'd pay Sideshow. Even though I'm sure the wait list will convert, rather just know I'll have this guy next week and support local business at the same time.
 
Thought I would do us a favor and breakdown the key elements of this Juggernaut for those who want to compare and contrast or even attempt mods to the ANH version.

Chest is held by velcro easy







Same as the huge cod piece





Back how cod is attached



So before you swap the cod pieces don't forget about the velcro



Glove texture





Boots

It's baggy like ANH but looks like more solid leather IMO

So I hope this helps those who where thinking of futzing, customizing, swapping etc. :wave

BTW, look how even big boy Batfleck pales to Vader

 
For those of you that have him, are the legs loose on yours? My vaders legs go side to side with little effort at all, but are tight going foward to back.
