Official 1/6th Darth Vader Thread

1/2 inch? According to the website he should be at least 2 inches taller.

 

[IrishJedi]

He probably is. I was just saying that he has to be AT LEAST 1/2" taller than any existing SSC 1:6 figure, from any line.

The entire Medicom RAH figure could fit inside this thing.

All the more reason I'd like some additional photos done, I'm finding this description mind blowing, I can't even fathom Vader's scale to other figures.

I think Kanamit and Jaws are the tallest so far... so good news if Vader is the winner. At 14" (his height listed somewhere) he'll be just about right in my eyes.

 

[tomandshell]

How tall was the Kurgan?

I know that The Knight Who Says 'Ni' was about 18" tall in the 12" Monty Python line.

 

[galactiboy]

Ah... forgot about the Knight who says Ni, thats the clear winner. Although, its kind of a cheat since he's up on a base.

Kurgan was about 13"... just one the regular Big Boy body.

maybe we can use the medi version as darth's younger brother "Chad Vader - dayshift manager"...............

 

[Cryoguns]

An accurate 1/6th Vader should be somewhere around 13.25" to 13.5" in height, depending on how much the armor & helmet adds.

I am thinking there might not be an edition size listed on Friday.

They need to get all of the SDCC orders processed first or else they run the risk of over-selling.

I thought they didn't except pre orders for the exclusive at the Con?

 

[OK SITHLORD]

My two cents is, VADER should be 1 1/2 to 2 inches taller than a normal SS starwars fig, and 1 fig plus a 1/2 as thick. looks as they have done this, from the pics, very nicely and it looks to be well done!!

 

[abake]

14" is the same size as the HT preds, right?

 

[MaulFan]

14" is the same size as the HT preds, right?

That is correct, at least by order pages, I've never actually measured one.

I was able to order one exclusive Vader and two exclusive Stormtroopers on Saturday. I had heard of some people being told to wait for the PPO on the exclusives, but for myself and some others it didn't seem to be a problem. I even asked first to clarify and was told it was OK. Hopefully anybody that was denied on preview night tried again later, or will have good luck on Friday.

 

[wofford29]

Sounds like everyone wasn't on the same page.

 

[Skiman]

Sure...I guess...

Thats the fighting for Vader spirit!!!

 

[OK SITHLORD]

Thats the fighting for Vader spirit!!!

Will be slugging my way in on friday, for sure!

Yeah, I ordered a Vader Exclusive and 2 Stormtrooper Exclusives as well. And I just received my email confirmation.

 

[The Mike]

I'm wondering. Since only the Exclusives are going up tomorrow and the estimated edition size is 1977 obviously slightly depleted from SDCC orders anyone really think that this will make it past only a couple of minutes Friday?

 

[tomandshell]

I didn't get my order in until Saturday, so I think I'm towards the bottom of the list and won't get my confirmation until later.

As did I.

I doubt the ES is 1977 but honestly I don't know how many people ordered the Ex. I know I did but Dusty took my order and knew exactly what I wanted before I started.
