So is the display helmet more accurate?

Huh? He comes with his regular Darth Vader helmet/head... pale reveal headsculpt... and a separate helmet that has intricate details on the interior for him to pose with. The exterior of the helmets should be the same with the exception of the portions that can be detached. They had to utilize separate Darth Vader helmets since one has a socket for the neck joint while the other has cool detailing instead on the inside.
 
I'll buy them all...

Yea I started thinking about it and I kind of want an ANH Vader to go with Old Ben. The one rule for my SW collection is to have all Obi-wan and Anakin/Vader incarnations. just missed out on the ANH version

Go to the 13:50 mark, Greg, you lazy ass. :lol

thanks for posting and saying the time. I ended up watching the whole video after I skipped to 13:50 :lol I'm a little disappointed they didn't talk about TPM Obi-wan, but was glad to hear that Malgus will come with a second sculpt :yess:
 
:lol
Actually my comment was really focused on Devilof76's reply, I don't mind people making observations about how things don't look right on figures. But I'm glad you didn't take it the wrong way. :1-1:
Yeah I know, & of course not mate - it's all good. :lol :hi5:

Hot Toys is not the answer.
I think it's the only answer to a lot of SSC's blunders actually, but each to their own certainly. :dunno :lol

welcome for the pics guys! I'm reserved a bit on this one, but still excited to see how it turns out! :) I just want this to be the last vader I ever have to purchase.. :/

Thanks Husker, those pictures were really helpful.

This is going to be (hopefully) the first and only DARTH VADER figure I will ever buy and I think I can quite easily live with the minor defects, seeing as how the rest looks to totally _____in'!!

I should point out this this would also be only my second SW 1/6 figure ever - when it becomes available - my first being Medicom's DARTH MAUL.
 
Awesome Vader. I have the first one and buying this next one for sure. Just wondering how anyone could forget to post pics of the mask and helmet. Baffling.

Well, you can judge for yourself. This is what the real ones looks like. :)

That is the Revenge of the Sith reveal. An all together very different helmet from the Empire Strikes Back & Return of the Jedi helmet.

This is the RotJ reveal face mask:

thanks,,, this is what i was waiting for....
just recently came into SSC and SW collecting 1/6
long time toy collector, new to this..

does anyone know the lead time from showing @ sdcc to actual production and sale?

i have my little display of 8-10 classic SSC stormtrooper and i'm so itching to put a vader in there,,,
anyone?
 
Well, it might be a couple months till the pre-order opens for this, then after that it can be anywhere from 6-8 months... Really though, with Vader it could well be about a year from now till it's in our hands.
 
does anyone know why i dont see my posts?

never mind, now i see it :/

@ Flosi, thanks, that was the question I was asking... i guess i'll try to get one second hand, so my display looks nice till the new one is put,
thanks

Darklord Dave had to approve your membership... I was able to see it because I'm a moderator.

It's hard to tell when we'll have this in hand, nicocato.. SS seem to take their time with important SW releases such as Vader and Boba.
 
Thanks FLOSI,
fortunately, i come from collecting Coarse and 3A, so i'm quite used to waiting month on ned for something,, even after paying 100% of it..

thanks, and can't wait for it, seems it will have some great additions, corrections and most important for me, a more comparable size to the stormtroopers, :D
