they made mutiple Rey's. What is the most possibly realistic way make you think they're not gonna make Deva, Reva or whatever the *** she is ?
I think the short term plan is a darth vader miniseries. But a 2nd OWK series wouldnt shock me.Not if (when...) season 2 is announced. I mean what else can they do in season 2 but another couple of Kenobi vs Vader duels - that will make Vader a bit damaged, even if he prevails this time andkillsbadly woundscrippleschops off a limbsays some very cruel things while standing over Obi Wan.
And HT will throw in a peekaboo-Ani helmet and crunched chestbox to make the second release the DX-DX Vader covering all his looks in Kenobi.
Their official reveal video should look like found footage shot by a Jawa behind a rock at the scene of the battle.This looks great, instant purchase. Wish it came with the shaky f******* camera for extra screen accuracy though.
That's without Sideshow tax. I think it'll be extra high on this one......View attachment 591219
Not bad pricing, it's looks like Deluxe will be really cheap. Factor in sideshow tax and I can see the pricing around $310 for regular and $350 for deluxe
Can you PM the contact details for the custom suit please? I’ve always avoided the Vader figures because of the pleather but if I can get a real leather suit…True, that’s why I bought a custom real leather suit replacement for my ANH Vader so I won’t have to worry about flaking when/if it happens to the suit (though it did happen to those little glove piece). Will have to do that for this one as well to be on the safe side.

Is it on sideshow now?That's with sideshow tax included
regular is 1880 hkd/$240 usd, deluxe is 2130 hkd/$270 usd without Sideshow tax (taken from hot toys secret base fb page.)
No but you can estimate whatll cost on sideshow, usually they charge 30% on top of HK pricesIs it on sideshow now?
Brah Obi-Wan literally rocked Vader’s world; he’s going to look worse than the figure does. Dusty at least.
I think it’s fair to expect more of a figure intended to represent this pivotal moment the entire show led up to. Especially considering the figure meant to accompany it.

Even if it’s dark, we can reasonably extrapolate that a battle damaged figure should look like this:

The damaged helmet looks great and it seems like a good clean Vader but it’s still mostly just a clean Vader. Feels more like a cutaway from a visual dictionary than how he’d probably look during and after the duel.
This is a half hearted attempt at representing battle damaged Vader at best, probably born from only having references to the clean Vader from LFL since the duel was likely kept a secret from licensees. They probably had a Kenobi Vader ready to go but whipped up these damaged parts last minute.
And then they made the clean parts the Deluxe to squeeze a little extra money out of people who are in need of a regular looking Vader for their collection.
I’m not hating on the figure per se; I have a couple of Vaders already but I’ll still likely get this if it’s all we’re getting. I definitely don’t appreciate the weird decisions and sales tactics going on though.
