da-emn Mooncat, thanks for the pic. the cape is incredible. i can't wait to have my Hurc Vader, I've had a lot of bad luck this year so far but it's turning around and it will be capped off with having this bad boy in-hand. mine is an ESB Vader with all the lights. Don't be afraid to post more pics.

We are back, at long last after the completely mental and heartbreaking time me and Mrs H have been through she has now sadly moved out of our home, NOT for 'break up' purposes but for the unfortunate loss of her job and Vestas blades UK, so we ve had to wedge two full rooms of my crap into one room which i now eat sleep, share with the cats and make the figures in...and as some of you have seen im not the tidiest of people , anyway, im back on the ball, lonely, especially at night ,anyway heres Blakes long overdue Vader, built on a HT pred 2 body which gotta say is pretty marvellous ,the ankles offer great movement which i know been questioned with the upcoming SSc Vader,anyway, new body, new electronics, new helmet details, new sculpt, (shrunk hasbro Seb Shaw using acetone, casted and resculpted for a better (i hope) evil look Anakin ,the internals include some of the brass etched details created for Mooncats ROTS vader. The body offers alot of good qualities, nice bulk even tho it had to be slimmed down a bit, the wrists are especially nice ,on the whole very happy with this one, the body also after extensive dremel work takes the new voice speaker/circuit board,light circuits,saber invertor, one 9 volt battery and two sets of two Cr2032 lithium button cells, one set are in his butt
Ive also created a new left hand for the reaching out to Luke in the bespin duel scene. im hoping the headsculpts gonna go down well lmk your thoughts..
the crammed full body during building

head sculpt and revised internals including smaller machined microphones.

with the base body donor........

the metal spikes have been ditched from the neckbrace as they were a pain and kept snagging capes and being generally dangerous,instead ive using other metal components on the neckbrace to replicate the small tubes seen across it.

The inevitable shots with the 'lazy' SSc stormies (why wont they stand up???)

and just for fun with an ANH vader....

I will answer ALL pms and emails tomorrow as im going to bed now all of 3 feet away

Hope everything gets resolved for you and your lady in the very near future Glenn.

Anyway... that's what I'm talking about!:chew Nothing like a good update w/pics to ease the pain...

 

[Vader AL]

sorry to hear about tough luck bud. may the days ahead shine bright for you and the Lady Hurc.

INCREDIBLE work!

people do you see why the delay with these bad boys, do you see the work that has to go into every detail. it looks insane.

 

[Blake]

holy hell, just amazing.

 

[Entropy]

Just amazing work yet again! All those electronic bits are brilliant, Glenn. You are the undisputed master of that arena.

Sorry to hear of the hassles and troubles of job loss/move. I hope it all resolves and turns around for you both quickly. I know 09's been a tough year so far. I hope the second half looks up and brings you both much joy and good fortune. :chew

You must all be so bored of our troubles, thanks for your ongoing patience and messages of concern, please keep your faith with glenn and his overdue work, the trouble is he is an ott perfectionist who can always spot something else to tweak in order to make each one better than the last, everyone has had to make sacrifices even my 3 year old nephews who donated a present i bought them from harrods to provide the voice for blakes darth! Anyway thanks for listening as ever xxxx

 

[Ultramanimator]

I'm sorry to hear of your troubles. It's amazing that you can still create such works of art in the midst of a tough time. These new images are truly AMAZING!

I'm very excited to get my Vader, but don't want to add to your stress so please take your time.

Good luck and best wishes to both of you!

I hope he was not too upset!

 

[mrshurricane]

luckily the twins are only three so when presented with something else they completely forgot about the talking darth vader!

 

[Blake]

Ah, my little boy is just shy of two, so I completely understand. Toy is here today, gone in 5 minutes if they get distracted.
