Official 1/6th Darth Vader Thread

[DarthTrafford]

I didn't want to wait for the exclusive I got the normal version

 

[MaulFan]

Is there an exclusive for this figure? I didn't see anything on the ordering page

Yes, there's an exclusive Force Choke hand, the Ex. version PPOs Friday, 8/1 at 10am PST.

Well, this is only the second 1/6th Vader (unless you count the Hasbro abominations). Minicom one still looks good, just too small.

 

[The Chaver]

Guys this is the single best Vader in 1:6th scale ever! Its that impressive and Medicom not only got its ass beat it got just ^^^^ing kicked across the universe. Same with the Stormtroopers.

Jesus Josh! Were talking about toys here. Yeah SS does have some cooler product here,but there's no need to be swinging your nuts around like you are. And didn't SS get some help from HT? Didn't HT basically do all the work??

 

[MaulFan]

Technically it's the 3rd if you count ROTS Medi Vader, which features different hands, shoulder armor and helmet finish.

I haven't heard or read anything detailing what, if any, involvement HT had in Vader, I'm sure they helped out though.

Hot Toys helped with the Trooper. Vader is 100% in house though.

Do you have any links or anything that confirms that?

Nevermind, just saw HT tops the Stormie team list, not in Vaders.

Even more bravo for them. I knew if HT showed them the path, they could do impressive things themselves.

I don't think they will detail anything.

Yup. My previous post.

Ya, I just ammended mine.

Impressive, most impressive.

What about the body? I thought that was HT's baby as well?

 

[DarthTrafford]

I have a question if I cancel my regular version of Vader and the Stormtrooper is there a fee?

 

[EVILFACE]

HT helped design the armor body. I believe Vader uses a modified version of this, but the rest of Vader is SS.

No....................
