Official 1/6th Darth Vader Thread

[Dusty]

I just put down when I ordered it at the Con... I don't know what the online order time shows...

SIGH. Way to confuse things even more

 

[MaulFan]

See, I wouldn't expect the most users on day to coincide with a big PPO, in fact I'd expct somewhat opposite. I'm sure alot of folks only open SSC's page during to make sure they get in and then go back to their business. PPOs are during work and sleep hours for a lot of folks so less can come on. It's more about just lots of things to talk about drawing lots on at once.

Oops, I read the PM as an AM for the 9:51 and assumed it must have been for a 10am pre-order. It's funny how forum numbers have dropped but here we have record sell out. Of course the edition size is a crazy low 1977.

 

[Billy]

Congrats to eveyone here who got one.
I new I wouldent make it in time at least ill be getting the regular vader.

So does the exclusive come with both a pointing and choke hand? It would be pretty nice if it comes with both.

Apparently some SSC reps said it would come with both and even made the two hand gestures.

 

[galactiboy]

It appears to be a pointy choke hand... a little confusing at this point. But either way, the Exc will come with at least one extra hand.

 

[BlueLeader]

Oh yeah, oh yeah...got both Exclusives!!! Now for those who missed out I had 12 family members order Darth Exclusives and will be selling those for $2,675 each so line up and let me know how many you want, but you better hurry cause I expect them to sell out fast.






Just kidding and bummers to all those here that missed him, best of luck with the wait list

What was for pre-order on 7-15 last year?

I was looking at that too. I figured today would have broken that record.

July 15th was a Sunday. I don't think they would've had a preorder then.

Old ben maybe?

looks like it was a sunday night.

Nope to all!!! Believe it or not, it was a bunch of "web search engine spiders" crawling the site indexing pages! We were confused about it at first, but figured out what was going on. Use the "Online Users" link and you will see that most of the "guests" are search spiders.

 

[galactiboy]

well that's no fun...

So how many hands does Vader come with? I though 6 for the regular and 7 for the exclusive.

But on the picture page I only count 5 regular, and 6 for the exclusive.
Theres:
Right fist
Left fist
Right saber grip
Left saber grip
Right open

And exclusive- Right pointer/choke

So, if there is a 6th regular hand... what is it? Maybe a left open, or maybe more of a choking hand?!?

That's what I want to know.

But at SDCC someone said that Vader comes with the pointy finger, so that would be the seventh in your breakdown.

 

[BlueLeader]

Does anybody have any high rez pics of Vader, SSC stopped putting them on their site. I know it was probably due to bandwidth and linking issues, which almost killed my own site once.

 

[QuiGonFishing]

actually i took the one of a kind prototype offer near the left of the page. says he will ship next week.

Yeah, I tried getting that too, but I thought $129.00 was a little steep...

 

[Darth Cruel]

Will Vaders pinky stick out like he is drinking tea like it does in the movie?

I sure hope so!

 

[Wor-Gar]

And now, your highness, PULL... my finger.

Yes, I need hi-res. The pics on the site are ^^^^ty, to say the least.

 

[pixletwin]

Agree. Does anyone have access to the hi-res? Irish? Josh? Frankenfan?

 

[galactiboy]

Hi Res is always nice... so any word on hands? How many... did I miss one in my list?

And in honor of his exclusive hand, I will reinstate the "Finger of Doom" signature

Love the new signiture mate

Love the new signiture mate

Too bad it now takes on a newer and more wholesome meaning than the one it used to possess. Aye me. The times are changing.

 

[galactiboy]

Thats okay, we can still hang with the double meaning
