Official 1/6th Darth Vader Thread

Oh man, so long to wait...

 

[lerath666]

they need to take as much time as they need. There is no way I'll accept anything less than perfection. all the issues with the pro body hen they rolled it out? no. Take time, get it right.

 

[FlyAndFight]

Vader should be the pinnacle in their Star Wars line. It's such an important character/figure that they should not allow any preventable flaws from appearing in the final product. As lerath mentioned, let them take their time in getting it right...

-I don't want to see cheapy fabric (Luke's shirt) being substituted in...
-I don't want to see paint flaws (SIM) showing up...
-I don't want inaccuracy in shape (Utupau helmet) showing up...
-I don't want a floppy body (Indy, Stormie...) showing up...

I just hope they make the helmet a little bigger, it looks kinda small...

[Fives]

as long as the final product is kickass, i dont mind it being bumped to 3rd Q.

 

[abake]

See? They're fixing the helmet.
And the stitching.

 

[pixletwin]

Cool. This news maakes me happy.

Vader and MMS Joker for Pix's B-day.

 

[Odowankenobi]

Well crap. Still, I guess part of me is happy. There's a whole bunch of stuff coming over the next few months. It'll be nice to have one less thing to worry about.

 

[Mad Old Lu]

I can't say I'm not disappointed. But I've waited this long. Another few months isn't going to make that much more of a difference...

Looks like they'll probably parade him out again for SDCC.

As long as they get him right. Now I have money to keep looking for Hot Toys Batman.

 

[shockwave]

Heck it looks great. I can wait. Start saving & selling............again.

 

[Dally]

I'm fine with the delay as long as it helps turn out an amazing figure.
