Iron Studios 1/4 Darth Vader

I'm not an sort of expert on accuracy but how is the PF "completely inaccurate" and conversely, how is the IS piece accurate? Because the PF doesn't fit in your detolf doesn't mean it's trash. I don't see how anything that is this majestic could be called trash. lol

I sold mine and majestic isn't a word I'd use to describe it. Once I un-boxed the SSC PF I knew it wouldn't be gracing the shelves of my collection room for long. Don't get me wrong, to each their own but IMO the sideshow PF doesn't hold up against the IS. (based on what we've seen in photos)

I think it comes down to a matter of preference, especially in the IS thread no doubt. Regardless I think both are awesome pieces. I like the option of having Vader in a standing pose and the other in a crouched action pose. They should look pretty good together regardless.

lol I thought I time traveled with all the Vader bashing and love.

One problem is simply saying you don't like it is never enough. It's always followed with reasons people think it is a POS. The truth is always in the middle somewhere.

SS is not as bad as hardcore people say nor as great as people who like it and the same goes for the IS version.

I'll own both(shipping pending) and love them both for what they are, flaws, no flaws, whatever. Idgaf what anyone thinks but me and sometimes MYC lol I just collect what I like.

Someone here once told me if I collect what others like I'll have a shelf full of things they like.

I have a growing Vader collection and I can say with confidence nobody is gonna come in and point out any flaws in them and I can live with them if I decide to buy it. One way is to just buy them all and then there's no complaints

I love my old and new SS Vaders, my HT Vader and I'll love my IS Vader the end. Now go buy what you like it's really fun and liberating to not care what anyone says just respect their right to say it.

Very true. Who cares what everyone else likes. Collect what you care about. That's what I do.

Never understood those people. Especially as they always ask to choose between two completely different characters/franchise. Not like between one Iron Man or another...

The IS Vader isn't released yet so we don't know if it'll fit or not.

 

[Hewitt89]

The Vader will definitely fit but Stormtrooper & this Vader together, probably safe to say won't. I'll be giving this guy his own shelf no problem. It's not space friendly but this piece deserves to not share the attention with anything else.

with the size of the new statues nowadays, especially the larger bases, I think the Pax system is really the way to go. I think I can fit Boba, IS Vader and SS Kylo on one shelf without it looking crowded.

 

[Hewitt89]

Pax might definitely be the way to go, especially for a new collector. I like Besta and they fit my collection but I might've chosen differently if I were to choose today. Things are getting bigger and bigger.

Which Pax are you guys talking about? Tried looking at the ikea website and all I see is wardrobes.

Yea that's what the Pax was made for but a lot of collectors have turned them into their statue shelves. Most using frames and custom doors.

I'm a Besta fan but I can see the appeal of the Pax for sure.
