Hot Toys has recently announced a SUPER battle damaged Darth Vader.
Take a look at my thoughts regarding this recent announcement and what we can expect from Hot Toys in the future.
Apparently, anything and everything.

I’ve always been so fascinated with Vader’s Battle Damaged appearance. Hot toys definitely took inspiration from his look at the end of Force Unleashed when he got beat to hell by Starkiller. The damages seem to be on the exact same spots!
I never had a Hot Toys Vader before but this was an instant pre order for me because just like you Vader is also my all time favorite character and none of the other Hot Toys Vaders had as much of a wow factor in me as this one.
They are still great and I did see a lot of them in person. But as soon as I saw the images for this one I was absolutely blown away by its presence and how menacing he looks! I had to get the deluxe edition with the half broken helmet and the sculpted cape (yes I get it looks more statue like but man it looks wicked flowing like that. It also reminds me a lot of the mythos battle damaged Vader statue that I missed out on and it ate away at me for months lol)
@@thearthurmarston9897 I’m glad it hit you with that wow factor. This thing is impeccable. I don’t plan on getting rid of my Kenobi Vader as that will be my clean look but I can definitely understand how this one puts that one to shame. I passed on the deluxe as I wouldn’t display it with the sculpted cape but if you had the room. It would be a shelf stealer for sure. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts. 🙌🏻🫡
I'm just gonna get the standard battle damaged Vader and if I need the damaged helmet look I'll use the Kenobi damaged helmet head. Perfect. I prefer the full damaged Anakin face anyway. Like you I wanted a clean Vader as I never had one so I have no regrets getting it.
@@alibear73 Me either my friend. It’s nice to see someone who thinks the same. Not sure how I feel about that sculpted cape either. Very statue-like.
@@DarthTamarus yeah it looks cool but I don't need it. I'm also not into statues
@@alibear73 Me either. Too expensive lol.
The only thing that interests me about the new Vader is the fact that it has no pleather. But expect it to be 420-450 -ish. And for us in Europe even 100-130 bucks custom taxes more. I think I will pass and stick to my ROTJ Vader. Don’t forget ROTS anniversary is around the corner and we could be seeing Obi Wan and Anakin 2.0
@@malekith8447 Very true. This isn’t a piece you NEED if you already have representation. But it sure is cool. I’m interested to see the suit material myself as well.
@@DarthTamarus Have you seen The Chewbacca, Hardcase and Jar Jar leaks?
@@malekith8447 I have! Super cool but these latest announcements/reveals are definitely a little overwhelming. I think I’d pass on all three.
@@DarthTamarus Chewbacca is a must for me. I am still undecided on Hardcase and Jar Jar. Depends on the price. But I am leaning more towards Hardcase if I get Jesse, Echo, Fives and Rex
If I get Chewbacca I only need ROTJ Luke, R2 and Leia and I‘m done with my OT display
Totally agree with you on this one! Clean Kenobi Vader going next to this BD one. If I’m not mistaken, the base body used on this release seems to be the same as Kenobi Vader so that’s gonna be sweet!
@@TheDewdAbydes YES! The proportions look similar for sure. Some were saying they’d have liked to see a Sebastian Shaw sculpt but it wouldn’t look good on this body imo.
I still love my Kenobi Vader. That was an awesome battle between Obi Wan and Darth Vader. It was also a touching scene when Obi Wan Cut open Darth Vader’s helmet and you could see the pity and sadness in Obi Wan seeing what his former padawan has become. The new figure looks awesome but I feel like more of a connection to the Vader I have because of the Kenobi show. Be happy with what you have.
@@ValkyrieMagnus Definitely something that should go into how you collect and the sentiment you have towards a figure. Thanks for sharing my friend 🫡🙌🏻
This Vader is a must-have. It's a unique, cool look. I like the pissed off head sculp and battle damaged on this helmet compared to the Kenobi one.
"It blows the Kenobi one out of the water." I've been saying that this pass few days 😂
@@mitchelllawrence2798 Absolutely. This is everything we got with the Kenobi Vader in terms of battle damage but taken to the next level. 🙌🏻
Yeah its too much of a good thing. Tough decisions have to be made.
@@daren2501Very tough.
