Re: Vader has left the building!!

Out of curiousity, did anyone get their Fedex notice say 23 pounds? The sideshow site says 15 for Vader, but that could just be wrong. Or..... DID I GET MESELF A BONUS!??!?!?!?!

Well if you're getting a bonus then so am I. Mine also says 23 pounds.

Re: Vader has left the building!!

Vader does in fact weigh 23 pounds. The various weights on the website are frequently incorrect.

Re: Vader has left the building!!

He's really 23 pounds? Wowza, he's a fatty.

He'll just swagger over to Vader, and say, "Listen here pilgrim, you caused a lot of trouble this morning. Mighta gotten somebody killed! Somebody oughta belt you in the mouth, but I won't... I won't... The H*** I won't!"

Re: Vader has left the building!!

Yeah, and then the Pilgrim force-chokes him.

Re: Vader has left the building!!

Well, I finally got my Vader this afternoon! Got #0791/2000, lower than I expected considering the fact that I was in the second wave. It's always fun to get one that starts with a zero.

Thankfully, my base was in great shiny condition, without the blemishes I have seen in some pictures. My one gripe would be that the chain holding the cape on is so tight that when you attach it, the edge buckles up by the neck. That's just a small thing though, compared to the overall abundance of greatness on display here.

Everything about it is beautiful, and I can't wait to set him up with Obi-Wan next month. I am so thrilled with how this line is shaping up so far! Grievous will be amazing when he shows up in April.

Grats Tom, sounds like you got a good one.

Hey, this is the Duke we're talking about here! The Duke doesn't get force-choked. The Force gets Duke-choked!

That is a pretty low number for a second-waver. Assuming mine isn't going to have a number beginning with zero, I'm still holding out hope that I'll get #1138. That would be very special!

[Edited to add]

I just got my shipping notice! Vader arrives on Saturday! Woohoo!

Re: Vader has left the building!!

My Vader arrived yesterday after traveling from the west coast to the east coast then back up to the north west. Fedex So anyway I expected him to arrive all beat up after that adventure around the country.
He arrived in MINT condition and I got to say I LOVE it!!! He looks awesome!
The only Vader that might top him is Attakus I the rest I dont think hold up against him including AttakusII Vader.

He looks great next to Luke! Awesome job Sideshow.

Re: Vader has left the building!!

I'm glad there haven't been any base problems with the 2nd wave. That gives me confidence that my new one will be in mint condition.

Heh heh! No, that voice is much more masculine than mine. The lisp is pretty close though.
