Yeah, I don't get it. Considering no one knows how much screen time Vader has and the figure doesn't come with a lit lightsaber, he will probably be like Phasma in this film so why bother with a new figure?
I seriously doubt he's going to have any presence aside from a few scenes, since I would assume they want to push these new characters in front of the camera as much as possible.
Having no saber blade is just silly. Same thing with the Old Man Luke figure having no saber too. We know he's got it...
I was going to get that Luke figure, but nope. I don't know who that is, but it's not Hamill. I got the DX07 set and so far that's enough for me. I was going to get the ANH version to get all the Lukes, but I seriously think they bungled the likeness on that one. I just hope the inevitable ROTJ version is good.
I hope we start seeing Empire figures soon... Yoda looks meh so far.
