Official Sideshow 1/6 ANH Darth Vader PHOTO Thread

[jkno]

tis thread = too long to read. how tall is the bisnatch officially?

Exactly, I'm looking for MF's pics with his domeless Vader and I'm already tired

 

[MaulFan]

Well, it's all in MF's hands now...
Since the dome came off, he can adjust it and take pics to see if a) it is possible and b) it looks good.

Have a few minutes before I step out again, so here's a quick response.

A) Not without serious customization, B) not without serious customization.

In order to change how the dome lays on the head, you'd have to

1) Trim away/off the peg inside the dome that goes into the head
2) Sand or some other way smooth out the glue spot on his nose area of the mask so when you move the dome what's showing doesn't look like crap
3) Possibly repaint the mask after you smooth out the glue to make it all blend right.
4) Find a way to keep the dome in place.

omg....so u will set up it to the right angle...

 

[Valfar]

Might be a tad anoying to set the angle with that glue mark in the way..wonder if it can be removed easily, without damaging the surface.

 

[zeiss]

If the dome is high enough so that the area with glue is showing, it will look like crap anyway, glue or no glue. It will be too high. Not only the angle must be changed, but the dome has to lay somewhat lower on the face to look good.

When i see a pic like this i honestly wonder what everyone is ^^^^^ing about, this figure looks just fine to me.

I mean are you honestly gonna give a ^^^^ that the dome is just a little smaller when it looks this cool on your shelves? (it's like the people that ^^^^^ about medicom's scale constantly i don't get it, does it look awesome on your shelf? IT DOES? Great now GTFO!

Cool, thanks Sean.

Yup. He is bad ass and is the best production Vader figure period. But everything could aways use a tweak here and there.

 

[Valfar]

This pic is pretty epic..best shot IMO.

I couldn't agree more...the figure looks fantastic.

Vader's looking badass... and my only complaint right now is that I don't have him

I agree with both, this is the best 12" mass production vader out there and it's a great piece. We should be happy that we even got one this great. If he doesn't meet your expectations simply don't buy it, there are alot more fans that will love to have yours and sideshow didnt produce the piece just for you.

Looks brilliant to me! Can't wait for it!

I think if some people got a bit more fiber in their diet they may like the SS Vader more.

 

[AngryEwok]

I know he's going to kick the hell out of everyone else on my shelf.

 

[Memnoch]

I wonder if he can sit.. in a chair. May have the Don coming and asking Vader for protection

 

[zeiss]

Even with the dome issue, Vader actually looks better than the PF in almost every way. SSC has really improved in their ability to do armored figures.

 

[Amir]

I agree, that's why I can't wait for them to make a new PF Vader !

Maybe some omega 3's as well?
