"Damn, this helmet looks badass."

A very Shakespearian look! I love it. I have always been a sucker for a good removable helmet Vader figure. I will display this one without the helmet on and keep the ANH Vader.

The future home of Vader and two Stormies!! With the Storm Troopers on the elevated platform on each side of him, any perception of a height problem is eliminated.

Now.. to find a Vader and two Stormies..

I was thinking about using the IM3 base as well since mine is sitting in its box unused.

Nice! Cover the glass under that platform with something and then add some red LEDs under the platform for some serious ambiance.

Exactly what mine was doing since it's too big for the detolf but using pieces of it this way may work out perfectly.

Anyone else not have their lights on Vader work? Tried a different set of batteries, no lights. HT might have a lot of QC issues but I've never had a figure with three different issues from them before.

Excellent idea! That would look sick.. I think I will do that. Thanks!

My Vader arrived today. It figures that it would arrive on a day I will have pretty much no time whatsoever to open it/set it up. It's currently sitting here in my office at work mocking me .....

That was me yesterday, I got home so late I had no time to llok at it. I finally got a quick peek this morning at 6 am before I headed for work.

Yup, but it sure beats getting water-boarded.

Don't take that kinda' crap from it, open it!

 

[BatBrain]

Using the IM 3 platform is a great idea! I think I'm stealing that idea too. It's sitting in the box unused.

I want him Death Star II Arrival shiny!

That's how I like to arrive at parties and weddings!!

Nice photo and in no way will I mock it, but this pose is so foreign to me because it relates to nothing I have known about Darth Vader in my 40 year life. Also the word "Tusk" in relation to Vader.

Question though what are you guys doing when you receive your Vader with "broken tusks"? Art you sending it back?

I must admit i was worried about this release but i ordered it anyway. Even in the reviews he didn't look very good. Im am totally thrilled with how he looks! his arms are a bit skinny but if u use a different pair of gloves and futz it better it don't look terrible. Im most impressed with the cape it looks like the vaders the reveiws got had prototype cape or something cause this one is very close to forigno's cape. The inner robe need major futzing i didnt have time but it might be able to be saved.

I havent had time to check his scale but he looks sweet on the base straight out of the box! Very please here concidering I have an amazing custom vader!

 

[Wor-Gar]

Is everyone having trouble with the "crotch bunching" on the undersuit?

 

[Darthrazz]

So just had a better chance to inspect this. Is the cape supposed to be frayed at the bottom and the tunic is not?

 

[Niceman]

Got mine today. Had to call SS about missing "tusk", but otherwise he's amazing!
