Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi - 1/6th scale Darth Vader™ Figure

[jedibear]

Just got this and pulled it out of the box...

A quick shot and a few thoughts.

Way better than I expected. The body proportions seem better than the HT ESB version. The Anakin reveal sculpt is really good and definitely not as garish and overblown as I thought it might be. The movable eye really adds to it. Poses well. The clean helmet is beautiful, again, light years ahead of the HT ESB one.

The only downer (so far) is the yucky material for the cape (and no wires). Doesn't smooth out or lay particularly well. This is especially true of the kama skirt.

I really hated the show, but the figure looks really cool and acts like a visual bridge for Vader, part of a cool progression of the character. I'll think of it more as a "mythos" type figure instead of something featured from that disappointing show.

More shots later...

Played with the saber tonight. I actually like this new system. A bit of a pain to deal with setting up, but it's better than the batteries...

Heads-up!

FYI, HT OWK Vader dlx & OWK dlx are now both “in stock” @ BBTS.

Just in case anyone is looking for either figure.

Terrible timing for me as I’d like to get OWK but Xmas dried up my figure funds. Excellent heads up though!

Thanks! I’m in the same boat. Want both, can’t find enough couch change to make that happen. Oh well.
