We can always swap it for the hasbro one.

Hasbo Is to big for esb, old ssc is better

I think it's from the Robot Chicken Star Wars episode.

Sorry. Forgot to put the "LOL" in there. I meant the new one.

If its 1:6 it actually looks better for the from the front, though looks rots style

There is no way in hell that is the final helmet.

Which begs the question, why the **** show it as SDCC!?!?!?

Same thing with their very clearly early, unfinished prototype Cobra Commander

Seems logical that you would want to show only your finiest work at the biggest show of the year, not half assed mishmashed prototypes

Who the hell is making these choices inside Sideshow?

Has anyone asked SSC at the con, 'WTF?'

Somebody should be filming while they ask that.

Sorry.. DP.

 

[Wanderer]

So is that the final design or not?

 

[AusGeorge5]

That would be the production piece - final.
So yes..... but it looks like the prototype from last CC.... lol

Kotobukiya head / helmet apparently too.

I thought something had to be different about the head. I figured it was modded in some way or the shadows were obscuring the features. I don't like the Medi face sculpt. It looks goofy to me. A pity because I like the rest of the figure and the Shaw sculpt is excellent.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Yeah, the Medi head / helmet looks, for lack of a better description.. cutesy.

Tiny face & 'Dark Helmet' dome cutesy, almost.

It seems like it really is going to be either; wait for HT, or take my time & make a custom now.

 

[yongkykun]

Clearly the dome is tilted back a bit too much. Don't fret guys and gals...

The Medi Vader is cute.

Since there obviously haven't been any changes made since they first showed this a year ago, it's obvious they aren't going to change/fix anything. So disappointing. I don't understand how they can do something amazing and get so much right on Hoth Luke and Han and then do so much wrong with Deluxe Vader and Destro. Sideshow apparently has their A and F-Teams working on these.

Vader isn't due until March 2014, is he?

Wow 2 years and they haven't fixed a damn thing. Pathetic.

 

[Asta]

Wow 2 years and they haven't fixed a damn thing. Pathetic.

Even if they don't fix anything, at least he won't be a Medi-midget!

From SDCC it's obvious Sideshow has been pretty busy with other things.

I'm not going to start panicking yet.

 

[Wanderer]

They should be stripped of the licence because of this. It's almost unthinkable that with their resources,the advancements made in 1/6 coupled with 30 plus years of reference material they can **** up the most iconic villain in cinema is asstounding. Wow

Oh dude..

That's the LEAST of it's ills.

I agree the medi helm I would almost consider cutsesy too... Have always thought that
