He definitely is a lot taller, by the judge of the glint in the very slight preview pic he is 14 inches tall!

Anything over 13.5" is too tall IMO.

your comment makes me: and feel: at the same time.

13.5" = 6' 9"
14" = 7'


Prowse was 6' 7", so with the helmet and costume, anywhere from 6' 9" to 7' would probably be very close.

THAT'S the one I want! The first. The man! The Vader who yells at his troops. And chokes passengers with his hand.

Yep, I just think 13.5" would be ideal, pose and display wise... I'm guessing they may use the 13" Bond JAWS body. If they use that body, with helmet and boots, it will be about 13.5" or so, pretty close.

Actually Jaws was a 14"er. Jaws was 7' 2" or 4", so 14".

Really? Not even between ANH and ROTJ?

I guess I just never really paid that close attention to it. I think there are a few different lights / switches and a lot of minor stuff like that but I don't know which is for what movie.

Hm, guess I just assumed the difference between ANH and the others was most glaring: Ringed gauntlets, inner robe over the armor, red lenses, widow peak, overall duller armor. Guess I just watched the movies too much

And I didn't watch them enough... or at least close enough

Could just be my OCD, I tend to have an eye for details that have changed between scenes or films. I tend to get slapped a lot when watching certain sequels

Actually Jaws was a 14"er. Jaws was 7' 2" or 4", so 14".

Either they would have to make new body for him, which is warranted, or reuse that Jaws body. If they do it will be OVER 14" Tall.

That's what I want too.
