I got my Anakin PF Exclusive

[The Josh]

Because complaining is his existence.
Why ask why?

I know. I know.

 

[My Lord]

Would it be feasible for Anakin to have swivel arms? I know the product description states the body would be cast in polystone, and it would help achieve the "space saving" downward saber look.

Oh wow I totally missed that too. Is it possible he changed in to black pants at some point after he became Vader?

 

[IronFingaz]

Actually, wow, I just missed one bigger costume issue as well, his pants are not black at all and are on the PF. Was too captured by the portrait and noticing from the belt up I hadn't caught that.

As far as colors on the costume go, it should be easy enough to match the 1/6.

Damn, the clothes look big in that pic.

 

[Darklord Dave]

Okay, so if I have this right, the changes that must be made to this perfect badass PF are:

-lighten the hair
-point the saber down
-darken the cumberbund
-change the texture on the robe
-get rid of the top stitching on the tabard
-check the pants color cause it looks like they should be brown not black.

Am I missing anything?

anything else?

 

[MaulFan]

Damn, he clothes look big in that pic.

Ya, that pic screams out of the box with no work on cleaning up the costume.

Has Josh posted some hi-res images of this one yet?

 

[paulcarson]

No, but I'm sure he is working on it !

 

[jedibear]

Hope so. I'm looking forward to a closer look at that great portrait.
Here's a collection of shots of the 1:6 version Sideshow presented earlier in the collection...

I still think the costume on this version is amazing...

[jedibear]

Thank you, sir!

 

[The Josh]

No problem

 

[jedibear]

Damned stunning portrait, I must say....could this be my first step into PF?

If only we knew they were doing a PF ROTS Obi-Wan to go with him...

 

[The Josh]

It really is scary how good the head is. As I said earlier it really gives power to the overall piece in how well the likeness and emotion is captured by Trev.

........that's what she said.

[Khev]

Thanks Josh, you rock!

One of my wife's biggest complaints was that his tabbards looked like cheap vinyl compared to the 12 inch figure. These pics certainly show that isn't the case.

Unbelievable sculpt.

 

[The Josh]

No problem. That's what makes the high res images so important is being able to really study the details that can be missed in the regular pics.

 

[Khev]

Yep, of course that doesn't mean that I'll be able to work two PF's into the budget in Q3 but at least Skywalker is now giving the Son of Arathorn more of a run for his money.

I also like how both portraits are painted with white showing under his pupils since that's a common distinction of Hayden Christiansen.

 

[MaulFan]

Much as Trev did a great job sculpting, his work wouldn't shine if the paint work on this wasn't so stellar, the eyes and skin really comes alive because of the talented painters too.
