Official Sideshow 1/6 ANH Darth Vader PHOTO Thread

[AngryEwok]

I'd eat monkey brains for a 1:1 Vader helmet.

As for size differences, to me the Fetts were always a shorter character in my head, so I have no problem showing Jango with SS Vader (if I get him, on the waitlist).

With Sideshow's Vader, Medicom figures aren't just a matter of height, overall size they look like a little kid. I won't even photograph my Boba Fett with Vader because it looks rediculous, and I'm not saying that to put down Medicom, just keeping folks from having illusion that some Medicom figures will work with Sideshow Vader. I've heard Medi Stormies and Clones are closer in size to a Sideshow figure so those could work, but the Fetts will not.

I actually would like to see a photo of Vader with Medi-Boba.

 

[MaulFan]

I can oblige, but it won't be pretty, I was hoping to do that shot of Vader and Boba from ESB in the carbon freezing chamber but it won't come out good, but just to show folks how it looks I will do it.

One of my favorite pics of Medi-ROTJ Vader is one where someone had posed him with SS Jedi Luke and had put the caption "My what a small head you have father".

Good times.

 

[galactiboy]

Yeah, I'd still like to see the Medi Boba with him... just for kicks.

The Stormtroopers are still short, but the Clone's are scaled like other companies so they would work... but since Sideshow's look better I'd just stick with them.

 

[OSCORP]

SS can and I think they will.

That's gonna be tough. Medi Boba is one of their best.

Yup, Medi Vader is flawed and left room for improvement, there's not much I can think that didn't turn out right on Medi Boba Fett, especially the helmet, that's perfection to me, at least the sculpt, paint might be able to look better. It will be nice that Sideshow Fetts will have hard armor though, I like that, and I imagine Sideshow's armor won't be stuck on by velcro with cheap glue holding it together.

 

[galactiboy]

Yeah, I wouldn't say Sideshow will blow the Medicom version out of the water... but I think scale wise it will be better and after seeing how nice Vader turned out I feel confident the armor bits will turn out very nice.

The hand sculpts will probably also look better on the Sideshow version... they still do some of the best gloved hands.

Yep, and I imagine that the belt, rope and holster(if they do ESB) will be leather versus plastic, or felt!

That's the one area I look forward to Sideshow Fetts the most, hand articulation, especially Jango. Old style Medicom hands are so limiting for poses, their new ones like Maul and Sideshows hands are much better, and the gun slinger pose options with Jango should prove very nice, and Boba can probably hold his gun in some new poses too.

Vader's armor is great, very nice fit to the base body, quality materials and finish. Between Vader, Boushh, Clonobi and the Stormie, I have no worries with Sideshow and armor.

Wow, look how far Sideshow have come. I remember the old "Sideshow can't and won't do armor" discussions weren't too long ago. Bravo Sideshow!

Of course they naysayers will say but it took them almost three years to get to this point and some people complained of loose joints and other nitpiks .


I've enjoyed what Sideshow has produced for the Star Wars Liscense from day one and sometimes to put out a quality product and to do it right it takes time.

Now that we're here enjoy it instead of complain about it .

I can't stand the pople that stopped collecting SS products a year or two ago but still come in her to whine and complain.

Anyhow enough of my rant, Vader will be here in a few short weeks and I can't wait!

Can't wait for Vader either, just think , armored characters can only get better from this point!

Hello Abake , if you read some posts behind , you see because i put the photos

 

[EVILFACE]

People were wanting to see SS Vader and Medi Boba in the same pic, not just pics of Medi Boba and Jango. . .
