The best Darth Vader figure it’s so hard to find
It´s absolutely amazing, really, that we have THIS figure at THIS scale. Just think about it for a minute.
I’ll indeed get two of this one because… wow! First, that cardback is unique! This is what I wanna see. I’ll keep one sealed, guaranteed.
Second, it’s the evolution of the “best” Vader. Love the features and the fact that there was even more to the upper parts of the lower body with the hips… and this one has much larger gloves and longer hands mean more posing.
I think it’s now debatable (or not) if this one is now the ideal/definitive Vader. VC241 was incredible, so looks to be VC280.
Tell your sister, you were right about me
…You were right
Nice 👍
@@joshadley father, I won't leave you

Yeah this figure is a definite must have for sure! Love the cardback and the removable helmet.
If they release an episode 3 Vader I hope they retool the body. The reason being is Vader didn't get this buff until the Original Trilogy and Hayden's Vader is slimmer. We'd also need a modified head sculpt with a hayden likeness but give us a freshly burnt Anakin head.
I can say the head looks more like his appearance from The Force Unleashed, because his head also looks thin in that game.
Beautiful version of Darth vader. 👌
I have both of them and I have to agree, they're nearly indistinguishable and they're the best versions of Vader ever made in this size figure.
What an iconic pose at the end Tim, so cool😎 This is a sensational figure and card combo - my most anticipated of the year👌Great job mate👍
Cheers Tony, this Vader will take some beating!
Wow he didn't make it lol
The removable helmet make this Vader perfect for place in a meditation chamber diorama
Great video, tim. Seb shaw had black eyebrows, and his head had a point, and moreover, he had aged after years in the dark. This figure doesnt look aged enough. As for the cape, the rogue one vader cape had lovely stitching on it. That head needs redoing 100%. It is simply not right. Vader in ROTJ is a weary old man.
Excellent figure! Ever since it was revealed I’ve been saying that to me the head sculpt looks like they were going for a morphed combination of Sebastian and Hayden and I still think that having seen him close up in your video. Thanks for the early review, very excited to get this one!
Greatest TVC ever !!!!!!!!
💥🔥💥🔥💥🔥
This figure looks great, can't wait to get my own and replicate Luke taking off his helmet on the ramp.
The definitive VC Darth Vader, in my opinion. It will be difficult for me not to buy every one I see out in the wild, to be honest.
Great review and figure, I am definitely getting 2. 💪🤓
Stunning!
Fantastic! I think this review breaks the record for the number of “wow”s spoken 😊
I just got my Vader today. I figured I'd put your video on again while I open mine.
I've only ever opened one figure before and it was not nearly as articulate as this new Vader.
Thanks for the years of entertainment man.
Amazing figure. Glad the helmet seals up all the way unlike previous version. Looking forward too seeing the next video.
This is my number 1 want of a figure and I hope I can get my hands on one asap!!
Nice review Tim. This is a great looking figure!
Great review. I've definitely gotta pick this up when I find it.
Great video Bossk🔥 the head sculpt looks amazing. Can’t wait to get my hands on one
Such an awesome figure and detailed design! You didn’t waste anytime reviewing the best one of the wave. Thanks for the up close review! Can’t wait to get a few of these in my hands.
Hey BB! Thank you for reviewing this figure. That head sculpt looks wicked, dare I say scary?! And yeah man, that card back is epic!
Best burnt Vader headsculpt I've seen since the potf2 version from the 90s. This one is miles better than other vintage unmasked Vader's we've had I think, and easily better than the last Jedi Vader figure we had where the helmet was just way too wide for me, this figure nails it for me. Pity cape is a lesser quality than the previous one, but otherwise pretty great figure overall
It’s a mixture of Hayden and Sebastian!
Think you right my friend
Got this at Walmart today for $11. It was an instant cop for me & he goes for way more on sites like eBay
What a great figure Bossk, looking forward to getting this in my collection. Good job you had nice clean nails with those extreme close up shots!
Always! lol
From the reveal photos I wasn’t certain about the headsculpt. Now I’m Shaw. Great vid Tim!
Thanks for the shoutout! Great work on this review. I can’t wait to get this one.
Great looking figure, nice cardback. And yes, his stump needs a few dots of colour on it 😁
Yet another great review! I can't wait to get this one, and as you said, most definitely a must to get 2 of!!
I was planning on getting 2, one to open and one to keep carded. But after seeing your review I am probably getting 4 because I see so much custom potential with this figure, wow!! I plan on folding in the cape if mine is frayed. Excellent review as always! MTFBWY!
If that Episode 6 Darth Vader figure was released as a 6 inch figure from Black Series, i swear i'd buy it right away
I remember having the legacy collection one when I was a teen. Then on with the stormtrooper card back. This figure brings many good memories of that figure
I just got mine today at Target, he was the last one on the shelf. I told myself not to open the package but still the more I looked at him the more I wanna get him out of the package and so I did. Amazing details, incredible paint job on the head sculp and his whole helmet. I think $14.00 for a mini figure like this is a must buy ❤🎉
One more difference between this one and the Dark Times version is the design for Vader’s gauntlets, too.
Great Vader!
This is a great figure
Amazing figure Tim , cannot wait to get this inhand . Cheers 👍🏻
Great review Tim!!! Very excited about this!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Been Waiting for this
Great review! I love that Hasbro is getting high mileage out of the fantastic Dark Times Vader. Looking forward to seeing what the battle damaged Vader and Obi-wan 2 pack is going to look like
Long awaited figure for the V.C. line. I have a Vader figure that has the exposed wires from his cut off hand. I think it was from the Saga Collection back in the earlier 2000's. This new one looks like the definitive Vader for sure.
Incredible figure and a brilliant, detailed review Tim. Cannot wait to get this one 👍👍👍
Cheers Scott
It’s fantastic. All be buying a lot of these Vader’s for sure. 😊 Fantastic. Glorious Figure. Glorious Cardback. Incredible, Amazing, Spectacular 🎉❤
Thanks 🙏🏻 Tim. You are the one ☝️
The one I got from Amazon 2 days ago is the same thing except he doesn't come with the hilt and the lightsaber, it's just all the accessories and the lightsaber, which the blade can be taken off and the hilt can be hooked on his belt.
This looks amazing
"Luke
Help me take off this mask... Let me look upon you with my own eyes... But you'll die...
Nothing can stop that now... Ive got to save you... You already have..."
Absolutely fantastic figure on a fabulous cardback. A must have.
Great to know this figure is not just about the cardback great review.
This looks really cool, although I think I prefer the Legacy Collection head sculpt. Iconic character from an iconic scene! Cool vid as always
Excellent review Tim! Also excellent ending! :)
Amazing figure, great review.
My preorder arrived when I was out of the country (Canada) and I just picked it up. For the first time ever, I did buy a protector so I can keep one carded and in the best possible condition so, yes, I did pick two units. THAT cardback... and I don't consider myself a collector... THAT cardback is amazing! I've yet to open one of the units but there's one with better paint applications which I'll pick for my shelf to go along with ILC Luke. There were five left in total including my preorder and they had awful paint apps on the chest plate and belt. Yes, I notice those details and I'm glad the owner of the shop did keep one of the better ones. That Vader figure has already gone up in price which is ridiculous but not really at the same time.
Awesome review.
RotJ is also the movie I enjoy the most and the first one I ever watched. The only nitpick I have about this figure is the name pill. To mirror the Mustafar Darth Vader from the first TVC run, this figure should be named Anakin Skywalker
Good point!
Thanks for the review Tim! I think it's just a matter of time they will do another variant of this Vader with electrocuted helmet.
On the wall for sure👏🍻
Amazing figure and excellent review. I just wish the face looked a tad more like Sebastian Shaw, but overall, this looks to have been incredibly well done.
“Oh it’s… beautiful”
Howdy! Great video as always..
A very quick pass with a Bic lighter across the edge of the cape will take care of the frayed threads.
That ROTJ vader looks decent enough to pass for the re-do of the POTF 2 line, nice job Bossk.
Easily the best Vader ever!
Great figure, need to get it. I have spoken.
I need 2 of these for sure. Then maybe get a custom David Prowse head.
Ha, I think the head sculpt looks more like actor Carel Struycken.
I have this and will sell in about 15 to 20 years on eBay for like 2k.
What would look great for your scene is using the gantry piece from the Jedi Luke Skywalker throne room duel figure in the 2003 line.
I have an older version of this Vader from build the Droid, and I have another one of these two in his star wars tire. One didn't have his lightsaber or helmet and yes it looked like Hayden Christiansen, and another with his helmet and lightsaber. And then there's my first Darth Vader toy from when I was a kid in revenge of the sith line from the rebuild Darth Vader set. I'm not sure if I want to buy this one I've got so many Darth Vaders in my collection more than the other characters. Obi Wan and anakin and Vader were my original toys almost 15 to 16 yrs ago. So was grievous and some clones but I lost those guys. Then I got grievous back later on. Still have them. I don't think I need anymore Darth Vaders. I'm good as it stands.
Excellent review Tim 👌🏻 hopefully I can get one now is is only available in the whole wave at SAF ?
They will be available as singles once they are released.
when and where can you get this in the Uk please?
This is a great looking figure, and makes me excited to see what they're going to do with the battle damaged Vader from the OBI WAN 2-pack. However, it irks me that they could put this much care and detail and tooling into this multi-piece mask, but they couldn't give the new Han barbell hips. Still, I wasn't gonna pick this figure up because it was too close to the awesome Dark Times Vader figure, but this review may have changed my mind.
I only just discovered this came out a bit ago while browsing eBay today...it's really nice though I still think my VC115/lost line Vader still has a slight edge over it despite that one is scene specific...the cloak does kinder leave a bit to be desired..all my other Vader's had neat folded sewn edges around the whole cape which made it drape nicely also very slightly posable..it's very close to being a perfect figure but I can't quite put my finger on it..to me it just doesn't look as crisp to me as previous versions..maybe it's me I don't know..the head sculpt is brilliant and the 3 piece helmet is very good too in comparison to some others like vc08
Great review, great details! From one BB to another, do you know when this is slated to be available for sale or pre-order in the U.S.? I live in constant fear of missing out on a drop that sells out before I find out about it!
You can order it now if you buy the wave/case. Otherwise you gotta wait for it to be in stock. No preorders for it
Awesome can you let me know which Anakin head fits on it please would be cool to see an Anakin EP3 head in it
The head was really my only gripe w this one. Not quite “egg shaped” enough to really nail the Shaw look. Otherwise another really great Vader, I like it a lot.
Strange how the face of the figure looks a bit like Hayden Christensen. Great figure!
the darrth vader 30 anniversery wave 3 a new hope has a better fit of the helmet. Got it in my collection. Although this vc vader is really cool and good enough
It's a shame that the eyebrows are removed. That would have been a nice "screw you" to george. It's also a shame that this head sculpt doesn't look like Sebastian Shaw. They did a better likeness of him back in the POTF2 Flashback line. It looks to me that hasblo was trying to lean to a likeness that resembles hayden more than Sebastian. That is unfortunate, but not a surprise.
It used to be you'd recoil back in horror at all his scars. Now with this figure it's because of the similarity to Hayden's likeness, intentional or not.
Vaders eyes where following me I swear
I have it and honestly I think it looks more like Hayden
Insane detail on the face,a truly brilliant figure.
That head sculpt kinda resembles a what if? Harvey Keitel was Darth Vader deepfake 😂
Boss Bounty where did you get the Vader figure? From Staractionfigures or some other overseas website?
I don't know Tim.... But that is a nice Vader
Sebastian Shaw force ghost for life.
Great Review!!! I'm in a tricky spot right now. I don't know if I should get this version or the Obi-Wans version. I'm leaning toward the Obi-Wan version, thoughts?
Get both. The Obi Wan "Dark Times" one looks like the definitive Vader, whereas this one (unmasked) is pretty much an Anakin Skywalker figure.
I have the Dark Times Darth Vader I found at Target.
I wanna get this Return of the Jedi Darth Vader figure too.
I have God knows how many Darth Vader figures I have.
I have the Power of the Force basic (green & yellow card), Power of the Force with Comm-Tech chip, Episode II era (blue card) Bespin Duel, Episode VII era & The Vintage Collection Dark Times from Obi-Wan Kenobi.
I feel like the Sebastian Shaw likeness makes more sense & they should've left the Anakin Force Ghost as Sebastian Shaw instead of using Hayden Christensen.
To me, Hayden Christensen as Anakin Skywalker's Force Ghost made absolutely 0 sense.
Like some other changes in the middle/original trilogy, this was 1 that was not needed.
Was there a Vintage Collection Return of the Jedi Luke Skywalker?
I know there's a slightly older version of him from The Mandalorian & The Book of Boba Fett.
I'm at 2:43 and the one on the right is the dark times Darth Vader. Could be wrong but to me it has to be since I own that figure and it it's the only Darth Vader figure I've owned since after the old school clone wars. It's kind of like a slightly duller black like he's had it for a while I like it. Interested in this and have my most anticipated Star Wars figure in this size and in general which is Starkiller!!
HA!! I was wrong like hell lol Guess that makes sense though The one on the right is more dull like I said so that should be the more modern older version of him and would make much much more sense. Also the buttons are more advanced like you mentioned. 👌🏽💯
I prefer the 1998 version as the back of the neck piece has silver paint over the detailed bits as in the movie + I think the face is better too. I might get this but it's inferior to the earlier figure IMO.
Love the card back. Can't be the OT
It will be unfortunate that it is most likely we will not get an Anakin Force ghost of Sebastian Shaw...
Hello! Great vid :) it is really 6 inch because looks a bit small. Thx!
Who said it was 6 inch? TVC is always 3.75
Literally preordered, already instock at BBTS . That 40th logo ruins the card back . My copy of Dark times had bad paint apps , hopefully I get good paints (2 incoming)
Is this figure exclusive to somewhere because I can’t seem to find it? :(
Any reason why Hasbro doesn't put the same effort into the 6 inch line? Lol Great figure!
