Sideshow ESB/ROTJ Darth Vader

[devilof76]

Easy, now. Let's not get carried away.

I'm sure someone here can talk you out of it. Enjoying things that aren't flawless by the standards of others can be a dangerous thing.

 

[DeadLeaves]

Yep, concentrate on the details that others have noticed are wrong. That's how you enjoy that new figure buzz.

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

Whatever works for ya'z...

 

[shocktrooper_au]

I usually enjoy my figs until I see the mods come in, then I have to do the ones I can, something's can not be unseen

I'm not thrilled with the skinny arms. I'll wait until the reviews come in and i doubt i'll cancel because who knows when we'll get another Vader (not to mention the NRD) but for $250 i expect better. Everything else looks very, very good though so far.

Man i am also going through the same thing, although i did order with an nrd. Since its exclusive i am hesitating to cancel. Not that its a bad figure i am just a bit low on funds with some other investments and also a relocation coming my way, but just dont want to cancel and lose 25 bucks as well. Let's see...

Well I'm sure that since Vader is bigger then a standard figure they'll be fine, probably just the armour bulking him in other areas more

 

[devilof76]

Wasn't the point of a looser fitting bodysuit to enhance articulation? Or was that just supposition that sprung up here?

 

[SithThundercracker]

He looks skinny indeed. I'm not supposed to say something like that on a 250$ figure, but if a KP-02 body port can be easily done (like the old Vader) giving me a beefy correct scale figure, well...I will do it.

Costs if production have skyrocketed. That means we have to pay more. Don't like it? Tell the world leaders to pull their heads out of their asses and settle the economy and put the needs of the people that voted for them in front of big business.

Simple fact that the cost of full has doubled in a decade is indication that we are walking down a dark road.

Very true. I'm wondeirng what's going to happen in 5-10 years time.

Also, workers are demanding higher wages as well in production and manufacturing.

Be nice if they actualy got them, wouldn't it?

 

[devilof76]

It's not wages. It's purchasing power.

Two things that pop out immediately to me (dome being undersized aside):

*The bodysuit reminds me of the old vinyl clone bodysuits.. that ain't great. Sure there are actual 'pleats' sewn in, but where's the horizontal wrinkling immediately noticeable in every Vader suit? It also look thin. Ehh..

It's one sixth scale. Clothes do not wrinkle the same as adult sized clothes.

*The bottom of the cape isn't hemmed off - it's frayed & looks cheap. The folding looks nice though..

Even the custom capes people phap to on here are not hemmed and will fray.

I know, right? It's a action figure not a statue.

I must say, one of the most amusing things here at SSF are people who balk and criticize to the millimeter any imperfection on a $250 doll and yet will pay upwards of $500 on a custom that looks like crap.

 

[FLOSI]

Did any 30 day notices get sent out?

 

[EVILFACE]

You are quite right, my child.

People pay that?

 

[pixletwin]

People pay that?

That price is a on the low end too!

 

[Wanderer]

Wow looks crap! And why do his hands look oversized? Looks like he's wearing oven gloves.
Passing this like a fat bird in a night club
