I WISH that I was ready to “invest” into Hot Toys when this was up for preorder even before they revise the helmet to make it more screen-accurate. This would be the holy grail for me as I love Vader as a character the most, even with the lack of range in some areas. I’ll have X-23 next year as my first sixth scale figure.
Totally agree with what your saying about this figure. I have say though it's the best 1/6 Darth Vader out there. You can put both bases together so the light up is on top of the stairs. But still nothing to me is better than a custom light up lightsaber. I do feel disappointed that hot toys dont supply the USB cables. Other companies do if required. But overall it's one hell of a figure and coming with the Sebastian Shaw head sculpt in 1/6 tops it off for me. Great video as I know your into Star Wars a lot more than me and great to know your feeling on this figure. 😊
8:02 Him not being able to tilt his head down because of the chest armor getting in the way is accurate. In the Scream Awards 2011, George Lucas reveals Darth Vader can't see down there. Careful when handling the masked head with your thumb. Those tusks snap off easily.
Come to think about it, I can't look down in my costume either lol. I saw this pose in the comics where his head looked tilted down. So I tried to recreate it. That's where I was coming from. I'll be careful with the portraits. Thank you!
350$ 😮 !? Wowww !!! Good for you man 👍 I assume this is the price in the usa. Unfortunately, here in the EU we can't even dream of anything close to €330 as the price for this figure.
Awesome review man! I have the 1/4 Hot Toys Vader which nothing can touch along with this one......A New Hope and the Obi Wan.............no more Vader's lol.
Got mine in December 2024, by January 2025, its started cracking, fake leather, I knew this later after purchasing, but I prepared, coated it with three coats of Angelus finisher. It didn't work with a couple of poses, cracks by the shoulder cup and groin area. I then went on and purchased black leather paint by Angelus, touched it up and posed it permanently, sad to be on worried status to figure that cost me over $400.00 to be caution because Hot toys is too cheap to use real leather, nylon, or even polyester. I will never buy another pleather character that consists of 90 of his suit be made by fake leather. So sad and big regret 😢

Hot Toys 🎉🎉🎉 This is the way..
Yeah man!

Thank you! The 1/4 scale is so cool. I had it for a time, but swapped it out for a statue. Kinda regret selling that one off.
What about this one vs the OWK Vader?
@@Solosheep I can do a comparison for you.
@ that would be good - as lots of people could only prob afford one of these
Unboxing and Review ARF TROOPER & AT-RT?
Had to choose between this and the Obi wan Vader….tempted to join on the waitlist
Its a really good one. Just saying
@ there you going being a bad influence. 😂 as I join the waitlist
What Keyboard do u have?
Sooooo worth it!!!!!
Yes it is!
I chose the BD Vader over this one. The pleather aspect I can't deal with.
What is the website where you buy those hot toys?
@@vazquez341able I’ve used Comic Concepts but delivery has been slow. For this one I used Sideshow.. and it was also slow. 🤷🏼♂️
Unfortunately lack of flexibility and head movement is just something that comes with Vader, even George Lucas said he can’t see anything under him
