I was reading up in the Cobra Commander thread and noticed how his height in this pic totally makes Vader's height issue go away.

Has Sideshow been slowly scaling up their ⅙ figures? So the older stormtroopers now look too short but newer figures will scale nicely to him?

OK, I lied. One more just for fun...

People may be in for one hell of a surprise when those Hoth figures start shipping… ;)

That's a lot of history to undo with this new release, especially considering their releases over the past year.

And Hot Toys Luke becomes redundant because he'll be shorter than Sideshow Luke? :lol

Then the standard TT narrow and slim will no longer be the standard?

:thud:


How are other recent Sideshow releases for height? Is Cobra Commander just meant to be taller, in spite of Sideshow listing him as a regular 12"?

Hot Toys Man of Steel is also taller than needed. In 2 years, 1/6 scale will be 1/4 scale.
 
Lord Vader arrived yesterday... just now had a chance to have a look and... 1 word... WOW!

This figure deserves every bit of praise it's getting and then some...the pictures in here have been great... but when you have it right in front of you...I'm just amazed!
From the impressive packaging (more like this please Sideshow!) to the figure itself...everything is top-notch here.

Anyone on the fence about this one...get off it now!
My, my, my! After setting up my Vader, I have to say Sideshow killed this one! Hot Toys could not have done it better.
Wow, great to see praise like this. The wait until my final flex charges on February 5th just got longer.


Love this shot, King. Fun to see these two masters of evil, together. It's really lucky I'm not just a touch more of a GI Joe fan, or I would've bought CC and the Baroness, for sure.

I wonder where they got the idea for that hood style on Cobra Commander. I looks so familiar, but I just can't put my finger on it. ;)
 
Ok, I think I'm done finding a pose, I'm not a big fan of dramatic stances but I might try one at a later stags when I work out a scene to setup. Do here's more of vader for now in a strut pose. I've ended up redressing him as a few things where starting to move with all the posing I'd been doing.
