Sideshow ESB/ROTJ Darth Vader

[Deathstalker]

I think they realized they made a 100% accurate representation of it and it then struck them they had to go back and dumb it down in glaringly obvious spots so they can come back in 2-3 years and make the Ultimate ultimate Darth Vader

Where the heck is this!!? I want the best Vader possible but damn SS, taking forever.

I think HT is waiting on the next figure to see how Luke does in the long run. Seems they may have made too many of them.

So HT is helping them,

Anyone have any news on this? Sideshow.......come out come out where ever you are.....

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Yeah.. the news is..

There's no news.

Both Sideshow and HT's are playing dirty games with me, holding back on the only figures I am interested in: Vader & Batman Returns.
I am sitting here with "0" in my cart for upcoming 1/6 figures. My last figure was DX T-800...

I continue to save money for that one day....

 

[jedijim3002]

Good luck with that. I get figures to tide me over till the figures I have on preorder show up and those tide me over till the ones I really want are made.

I guess we are going to have keep waiting on this Vader, Malgus, and Grievous! I think I would rather see a prototype and then within a week or so have the PO for the figure. This waiting a year or two in some cases really sucks. We saw Vader and Malgus at last years SDCC, and we are quickly approaching SDCC 2013.

I blame Disney...

I blame Disney...

cant really see what disney has do with this lol

 

[Jay1138]

This can come out whenever as long as it has an accurate head sculpt of Shaw as Anakin. But I (we) would like to see this sooner than later.

I agree...blame Canada!

Maybe they looked at the prototype and said "Nice, but we'd really like this to be accurate, thanks".

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Maybe they looked at the prototype and said "Nice, but we'd really like this to be accurate, thanks".

If they'd done that with 80% of their 1/6 SW figures to date.. it would've been handy.

After the work I put into customising my SS Vader, not sure I'm quite ready to buy this one. Of course, the crazy impulsive part of me will be like "Buy, buy, buy!" No doubt when this comes out, there'll be people selling off the helmet/reveal head on eBay. Maybe I'll just buy that and pop it on my figure.

 

[OSCORP]

Will this be better than the Medicom 2.0? Probably not, but i'm willing to wait. (Scale? LOL too big or too small take your pick)

 

[Hollywood]

Still nothing.....................argh!!

Here's what SSC had to say THREE YEARS AGO about their announced 1/6 Rebo Band set: "The design is done, and the project is moving into the sculpture phase very, very soon." (January, 2010 Ask Sideshow)
:

Oh man....that's just bad!!

 

[pixletwin]

For what it's worth, Sideshow tweeted to me that they hope to PO the delux Vader within the next few months.
