20.. huh... I got my 18 day notice. Thank goodness since I have been drooling over Mauls pictures for too long.

That figure is going to look awful compaired to the SS vesrion ! I can picture
the SS Vader placing the Hasbro Vader into a Toy Truck / Wheelbarrow and then wheeling it out to the front yard and putting out on the curb to await the trash pickup!

To da trash!!!!!!

I kid.

18th time I've heard this...

 

[MaulFan]

There are 2 notices going out.

Regular Edition - 20 days
Exclusive Edition - 18 days

 

[dharper]

18 day notice for me too.

 

[guyver1]

I got my 18 day notice and my 20 day notice since I ordered both versions, I was going to cancel the reg version, but after seeing maul fans pics, I don't think so!! I will love to have a backup, because it's vader!!

 

[AngryEwok]

Got my Ex. notice... I'm giddy.

 

[MaulFan]

Small point, but I find the Ex. hand to be very useful to have with this figure. It's the best right hand that comes with him I feel, the fist and saber grip are ok but unless he's holding the saber it's not as interesting, and the open hand is pretty good but doesn't quite feel right for ANH Vader. It's a shame the Ex. hand isn't a regular part of the set, I really like it, it can easily be a pointing hand or a Force choke, which is nice too, it's not limited to looking like a Force choke.

As long as they don't get into a boxing match or slapping contest, if so the Hasbro Vader has the advantage!

 

[Darthrazz]

Oh well, Luke just found out my custom Vader was not his real father! His real dad is in the way!

I think its really funny, picture SS Vader walking up to Hasbro Vader asking him if he wants to go for a ride outsite to curb and saying the trash man wans to take him for a ride in his new shiney truck!

Not since Kenner back in 1979 has anyone been able to do Vader justice!
The Hasbro versions are awful and Medicoms are too small!

Thats still an awsome Vader !! Is that a Hurricane Vader? Is it composed of some Hasbro parts?

Thanks! No it's not a Hurricane, but it certainly is inspired by his work. I made him from the usual, Screamin Vader kit for armor, hasbro Ultimate Villain suit, custom cape, Hasbro dome. Sideshow Terminator body with height extension. Sideshow Boromir hands, dragon Tall boots.

[tomandshell]

Very nice Razz! I'm sure it cost some $$$ to put together but viewing the end product it looks like it was worth it! July is going to be an awsome month for SS with Vader and Han and Luke ST and the reveals at SDCC !!

Depending on what SS puts out next year I can see myself kicking the Hasbro 3 3/4 habit completely .

Ow I say Mrs, I do hope the SS version is as good as this... I don't know if we are allowed to say things like this, but if the SS is as good as this I may have a little accident in the down stair trouser department. I am sorry if that if found inappropriate or offends anybody, but I really am looking forward to the new vader.

Dorgmal

great custom BTW
