Sideshow ESB/ROTJ Darth Vader

[Wake]

Holy crap! That looks amazing! Is that medicom? I can't really tell.

Has to be... i would think

 

[Craig77]

NOT sure which vader this is ? i think medicom's but thought was funny pic that was on fb earlier....

That looks like the medicom ver 2.0 body, looking at the hand, glove seperation. The face sculpt looks different...maybe better. Wondering if this is the ssc sculpt??? I know this is stated as FB but what FB site?

 

[galactiboy]

I assume that is also the Medicom sculpt... if it were Sideshow it would likely look a bit large on the body.

 

[Matt S]

Even Medicom can nail helmet/dome proportions! Sideshow: catch up!!!

 

[highlander1]

ITS FROM Beast kingdom fb toy site it doesnt say anything more on to which vader but pretty sure medicom 2.0 version.....

Medicom heads are in direct proportion to TINY medicom bodies though.

Nice! Great idea.

 

[budafett]

That's awesome!

It'd be better if the lower jaw section of Vader's helmet was already on the body and not connected to the rest of the helmet.

 

[jkno]

Nice image!!

 

[noisetrigger]

That's the Medicom Vader 2.0

Wake is right though, this head is only proportionate to Medicom bodies which are thinner and smaller overall.

When you compare the head to a HT head, you can tell it is about 20% too small.

That would really rock! Great pic anyways.

It all depends on what head you use though. For shorter characters like Luke or Bruce Lee they are the right scale.

Medicoms problem is they don't scale all their endeavors against each other.

I've always found Medi and HT heads were about the same size for certain characters. SS has always had really big heads.

 

[Matt S]

Proof Harrison Ford is impossible to capture in this scale, from either SSC or HT - both have their issues; at least HT is to scale

 

[Johnny Utah]

Except when Trevor Grove sculpts him. He's the Da Vinci of Ford.

HT's Indy could have received the kudos Keaton gets if only they had gotten him to sculpt it, combined with JC's paint.

 

[Darkseed]

SS has always had really big heads.

You can say this again, dayumn! I have Tusken on shelf by Dx Luke and it looks goofy the SS sculpt is so ...BIG

 

[jedijim3002]

They have gotten better, smaller, but are still scaled a little big for my taste. You would think the raider would be a good scale cause the head is wrapped up. Can you post a pic of the two next to each other?

 

[Wake]

THIS IS SO DEPRESSING. Amazingly the archaic Han sculpt looks 20x more like ford than the HT one. Wow it's really bad.

Especially because it's a jarring transition. First pic, hat down - not too bad, but not great. Second pic - AAAAAAAHHH!!

 

[Mr Walker]

They've heard it before... and still have sell-outs on their figures. People have screamed bloody murder for years about the ANH Vader; yet once it sold out it started demanding 2-3x retail.

Yeah, well I wasn't one of them before, and won't be one of them now. Wrong, wrong, WRONG!
