Official Sideshow 1/6 ANH Darth Vader PHOTO Thread

[budafett]

Pretty much the best Vader I've seen so far.

Agreed! I hope V 2.0 is comes close to the King's!

Can someone please re-post Kings Vader for some reason the pic doesn't show

King's looks fantastic. Can't believe what he's done with the stock cape either. I should've spent the fifty bucks on a body instead of the custom cape

I put my ANH Vader on a Kaustic body a while back, I think it gives him a good height and size, without being ridicoulus like the Sideshow body.

King, that height looks perfect!

Which Kaustic body did you use?

Not looking good so far.

It does look good, the best Vader I've ever seen was ported to the HT T2 Body that was a thing of beauty the KP is close

the height does look good, but the proportions of the costume are relative to SST's massively tall body... the boots and gloves appear to ride very high and what seems to be an overly buff Vader...

 

[King Darkness]

Thanks for the comments everyone, much apprecaited.

Its a quick easy swap if you like the outcome.

@ Indiana Fett, its the KP-02.

I'll give you guys the boots (they do look a bit oversized), not sure about the gloves, but I think the "buffness" actually looks more accurate to Prowse than the lanky SS body.

So its a trade off: oversized boots or oversized Vader.

His ball guard was sitting to low before, with up higher you don't have that shorten leg look. I don't see the buffness. To each his own though


Ball guard sitting higher.

Not 100% with you on the Vader King, but thats one of the best Boba's I've seen posted

Vader looks brilliant man!

You're right - the cod piece needed repositioning, looks great now. I'm still not a fan of the SSC robes, but your tweaks certainly enhance the figure nicely - real ANH vibe now.

How dare you not be 100% with me on Vader

I'm partial to it like parents that can't see the ugly in their children and if you disagree with me about it I get angry. I refuse to admit my Vader is anything but perfect

Now that's more like it.

Thanks VDG.

Man, I really dig how you Vader looks on that Kaustic body, King! Are those bodies any better in the articulation department? How well did those SSC wrist and ankle pegs fit onto the Kaustic joints?

I would love to see more pics, especially without the cape. As Wor-Gar said, even with the torso mod, the Sideshow Vader is still too tall and broad-shouldered to be accurate. I was hoping to eventually swap it with the one from Sideshow's V2 Vader, but there's no telling at this point how that figure will turn out.

Is this the right custom body?
