whats the best most accurate 6" scale vader figure?
>>
None, they're all wrong in some way or other.
>>
Mafex, Black series>> the rest
>>
>>6086212
Possibly the Mafex Rogue One Vader (yet to be released).

Otherwise Bandai model kit.
>>
Mafex.

Model kit memers please leave. It needs a lot of work to not look like a piece of junk, including a custom made cloth wire cape.
>>
Your mom. Only spergs care about getting the most accurate thing.
>>
>>6086238
Well, if you're gonna be a hamfisted, talentless, lazy and obese neckbeaerd with sausage digits and more rolls on you than a chinese restaurant and less dexterity than a quadriplegic horse, then yeah model kits aren't good.

What are the improvements on the Rogue one over the original release?

I'd like to know this too. I love my Mafex Vader but I'm curious. Better neck?

That's a pretty fucking impressive leap. The helmet looks loads better, Hell, everything looks loads better. Gonna have to pick this one up. When is it coming out, if you know?

August
>>
>>6086222
This

But with all the little imperfections I would say Mafex is the best out of the bunch.

That's the one thing that gets me.

I'm wonder how much of the shoulders can the cape cover too.
>>
>>6086212
I will never understand why people are so autistic over Vader. There will never be a "perfect" Vader since the costume changed in every fucking movie
>>
best Vader by price alone is the 31" Jakks version anyway.

>waah it's not articulated

big fucking deal. They go for about $30 and they're huge.
>>
>>6086291
Nice projection.

Some of us just want to buy our toys and get straight to playing with them instead of spending three hours cutting sprues, putting on stickers and hoping the thing doesn't fall over and smash into a hundred pieces.
>>
>>6086433
>>6086484
Hilariously, it's accurate to his Rogue One suit which feels a bit silly since they didn't even bother changing his inner cape and how it's meant to look similar to his ANH appearance.

Still the head alone makes it look so much better than their previous offering.
>>
>>6086212
Bandai Model Kit, just make him a cape.

>>6086222
Wrong, Bandai Model kit.
>>
>>6086950
He said in some way and you mentioned needing to give the kit a new cape, thus he's not wrong by your own admission.
>>
Hot toys, but I'm guessing your not a bajillionaire...
>>
>>6086212
the mafex one that comes out this august
>>
>>6086955
He's not wrong, model kits are made for you to put your own shit on them.

Proportion-wise and sculpt it's hands down the best.
>>
I made some edits to my Black Series Vader. IT looks better but I will be going to get the newer one that is coming out to replace it.
>>
>>6088600
oops
>>
>>6086429
Fuuuuck, now I don't even want to look at my old Mafex Vader.
>>
>>6086429
I hope they wire the cape.

It doesn't look like they did, but it would be awesome to have a vader like that with a wired cape.
>>
>>6089279
They obviously did. The first has wiring which worked really well so I doubt they'd back away from that, and the new one has the slight kinks on the hems that are telltale signs of wire.

Are there some good ANH/TESB/ROTJ comparision pictures? I can only find a wall of text opinion piece and some shitty, tiny photos where you can't spot any real details or where they make a puppet wear a costume (that may or may not be a fan replica) and isn't even worn properly like the blinking belt boxes hanging off the sides of his hips.

The helmet comparsions are easy to find but the rest of the outfit looks the same everywhere with exception of the chest plates being darker/lighter and ANH/Rogue One Vader wearing a piece of cloth above the chestplate and in other movies under it.

Oh I forgot, I am talking to lazy Americans here. Unless a toy comes with a cheeseburger and diet soda, you won't move your atrophied muscles.

The only main difference I know of is that his under cape went over his shoulder armor in some scenes in Star Wars and was always under them in the other movies.

Clear winner here. Roided Vader is best Vader.

Very nice comparison pics. Mafex seems the best to me, and since the new Rogue one seems to be improved, it should be the top of the list.

Can the unmasked Figuarts head go on the MAFEX body?
>>
>>6102218
4" Darth Vader has the best looking sculpt out of the bunch.
>>
>>6103079
It can rest for pictures but it doesn't peg in
>>
>>6100125
Rogue One or OT, thats currently on shelves.

ROTS is the worst Vader costume, especially the helmet.
Rogue One / ANH costume is nice but Mafex fucked it up with the cloth under the armor when that was the most noticeable detail of the Rogue One / ANH Version so might as well just buy the current OT one for like 40 bucks, at least it's accurate wto what it's supposed to be.

My favorite is still the model kit though because of the helmet, still have to get a real cape though.
>>
>>6102390
Yeah, figuarts is a close second. The figuarts elbow joints are kinda wonky looking and i dont like the way cspe swoops.

>>6103206
It is really good, but its holding hand is kinda crappy and helmet falls off really easy. I actually putvsome sticky tac in it to keep it on.

I saw a site once that went over the differences extensively, but I'm having trouble finding it. The changes are mostly minor, but the suit definitely got a lot sleeker and better proportioned in TESB and ROTJ. The armor was shinier as well.

Maybe the cinematography has something to do with it, but he just looked way way cooler in the sequels.

The R1 MAFEX should be good but it's Medicom so they'll fart around until November and then you'll have to poorfag for another year until HLJ clearances them.

>>
>>6086551
>fall over and smash into a hundred pieces
What sort of shitty-ass models have you been handling? I have a few of the Bandai kits, both Star Wars and other series, and none of them have been particularly fragile. The worst that might happen during a fall is a limb popping off. I can get not wanting to deal with the assembly process - that's part of the fun for some folks, but not everyone's cup of tea - but the end result isn't any more fragile than any other figure.
>>
>>6106032
>Muh movie accuracy

This sucks about higher end/collector toys. My preference would be to have a definitive version of a character, blending good elements of each, but these figures have to follow licenses exactly, and if the saber wasn't lit in that specific movie, they won't have it lit.
>>
>>6106032
>>6106532
Where could one get a lightsaber for it then?
>>
>>6106032
we don't even have a full accessory list for this thing yet, plus it STILL has the same restriction on display due to spoilers every other rogue one vader has.
>>
>>6105760
I think he just meant that Mafex is better quality. They are pretty much the same size.
>>
>>6106532
Except he has it lit in the movie.
>>
>>6106532

He uses his saber in the movie. I honestly can't come up with any justification for it.
>>
>>6106532
>and if the saber wasn't lit in that specific movie, they won't have it lit
>muh movie accuracy
>doesn't even know that he slaughter a bunch of rebels with it on screen
Don't post if you have no idea what you're talking about
>>
>>6108943
It was probably a mandated thing. The Hot Toys figure initially didn't have lightsaber as well, and they only seemed to include it after the movie had already come out. Unless I'm mistaken, the same thing seems to be happening with the BS Rogue One Vader and how they haven't shown it wielding a lightsaber.
>>
>>6095511
Eva Notty
>>
>>6109379
Probably right. But who would have seen Vader's lightsaber accessory as a spoiler?
>>
>>6110411
Some Disney exec that wants to make sure there's no masculine action scenes in any promo materials for Star Wars?
