This certainly is not the best picture on earth. But it's only purpose is to shed some light on some earlier speculation that Darth Vaders height compared to the Stormtroopers might be the result of his being set higher in the case.
doesn't really look that way to me.
Also, I asked for some changes to the poses to show some more dynamics of the articulation and I was told that these prototypes were not good for that purpose. And the Darth Vader prototype in the showcase has a vinyl mannequin at this time and has no articulation.

Sorry, I have not been following this issue. So is Vader going to be taller than the troopers?

He's 14 inches.
How do you better PERFECTION...........................
Even the light Saber is accurate with the fine tip.. Medicom vaders are fantastic and I own the ROTS version he is awesome..............But they can never get the Sabers correct from the hilt up.. they are always the same thickness From base of hilt to the top of Saber when ignited...

Not a big issue. There was just mention that the height difference might be because Vader was displayed on a higher stand than the others and it made me wonder. So I made a point to check on it. And Vader towers over the troopers.
Edit - I just remembered that I have been saving up rewards points for a long time in anticipation of an eventual Vader. I could have gotten him for free. But in anticipation of the PPO madness to come, I ordered him at CC. So now I still have all of those points.

Well, considering that Accesories are usualy where sideshow shines, and his armor, chestbox and etc are all technicly accessories, i think he'll look more or less like he does there.

This picture instills complete faith in this figure and SSC's ability to make figures just as good as Medicom or Hot Toys.
Only if the final piece turns out as good and with Sideshows track record of not delivering on great looking protos that's by no means certain to happen.
I won't deny Sideshow can make figures as good as HT or Medicom because ANH Obi-Wan and the Jabba setup are proof that they can,the real issue is their consistency.
Right now they are doing well if they manage 2 or 3 consecutive figures without any issues which pales into insignificance when you look at HT's last 18 months-2 years and IMO it'll take much more than a couple of great armored figures before Sideshow can even be considered competition to HT.
