I know it's an old comment, but I feel the need to point out: that's why I prefer Vader figures with no chain/molded on the shoulder armor chain. It's almost unnoticeable in the films so it's going to look clunky and cumbersome on figures smaller than sixth scale (which I honestly have no interest in for what concerns Vader, since they are way too expensive for me, the exception being the fantastic Disney Store ANH Vader. And even on that figure, the chain looks way too big and I think I'll be creating a wider cape without any chain).
@@theundeadranger10 They're not inspirations, they're literally surplus guns modified. The prop team couldn't afford to make brand new weapons, so they just modified already existing stuff.
It's odd the chain is only visible In Rotj and your right it's a thin black chain, which means the silver chain featured in most of the other vader figures is inaccurate to the movies
darkfullgor 0_0 ok I had to go back and watch episode 4-6 and yup Vader has always had a chain. It’s a little hard to see in episode 4 because it disappears under the bottom of the helmet
I think the 1/6 Kaiyodo/Screamin Vader model kit has the best plastic Vader sculpt so far. I think it was actually casted and shrunk from one of the movie helmets if I recall correctly. The thing is it’s reversed for some reason, so the curves are on the opposite sides. Still absolutely gorgeous.
Glad to see a review of these as the prototypes looked pretty great but nice to see in issued form with no letdown. I ordered 2 Stormtroopers & 1 Vader a week or so ago & definitely looking forward to receiving. Thanks much for another HQ detailed review!
Yay another Fwoosh review! This guy is my favorite reviewer on the web! He covers Marvel, Starwars, dc, and my personal favorite he covers transformers on his weekly Fwoosh! Thanks for all your hard work Fwoosh! I collect on a very low budget of a $20-$50 figure every 2-3 months so you help me to spen my money wisely! 🙏
I think I will get that ROTJ Darth Vader. He is the best Darth Vader yet in my opinion. (With the Black Series A New Hope One as second best) But I think it looks the best the helmet is the best yet. With good articulation to It’s very good to me.
7:21 From what images I've seen of Darth Vader, he does have a chain holding the cape in place in the Original Trilogy, but it's smaller and black making it easy to hide under the neck portion of Vader's face mask. I'm not sure if it was always supposed to hide under the helmet, or if it was supposed to be visible.
I've been a fan of the Mafex RO Vader for a while now and I agree, I think this is my newest favorite Vader so far. Great silhouette overall and it feels nice to look at as a movie Vader.
Great review Robo! This new Darth Vader head sculpt is the best and closet that I’ve seen thus far to screen accuracy in the 6 inch scale and the new Stormtrooper looks very good as well. Will be getting both.
I have the RotJ model kit. I bought it after watching so many of your Vader reviews. I had so much fun putting it together, and painting It. He stands tall with the new Emperor from Hasbro. I just wanted to say thank you.
Yes it comes with all of the original kit plus 3 chest boxes, alternate cape and lower robes made of flexible rubber, a damaged wrist, and a prepainted Unmasked head.
Ah yes!! This is my most anticipated review of the year from you!! I just HAVE TO get my hands on those Stormtroopers, they scale so well with Black Series and I can use the other weapons for my Sandtroopers/Jump Troopers. Great vid, always glad to see you enjoying figs!
I love that Vader. I just think it looks amazing, looking at the whole thing,the way it just stands there really shows the power for me. By the way your editing is becoming better and better and also more funnier, great job!
I’m fine with the articulation simply because darth Vader was never very agile and his movements were limited so I wasn’t planning on having him in any dynamic poses
They look good! I’m excited for the storm trooper, I passed on the Vader since I’m happy with the last release. Man that unmasked head 🤮 the older one is so much better. I use the older unmasked head on my shf Vader
I've got the Vader and a pair of these troopers on the way. I'm hoping to find a good, third-party cape for Vader but it looks great! Great review as always!
Thanks for the quick review. The small mound for me to die on, is why black socks. I always thought stormtroopers wore ankle boots so should be white. I don't know why it bothers me but it does 😣
I have the original figuarts, which is dreadful, and the first mafex, which is slightly less dreadful. I think it's finally time to upgrade, thanks for the review.
Yeah, that Vader is really good. The new Stormy is pretty good, too. But the Model Kit one is still superior. They got a lot right, and a perfect helmet in my opinion. Still look at it on my shelf and see how great it is. But yeah. Think I will be picking both of these up.
Bandai's sculpt for Vader's mask is so good. Let down only by the fact they forgot to paint the alternating gunmetal grey patterns on certain parts of it.
For drill you would want for that is small hand drill called a pin vise or pin drill it is normally used for models or jewelry and they normally for set very tiny set of drill bits come with them
I know you had a hard time switching the heads, but I was really wondering if the SHF Luke unmasked Vader Head fit on this new Vader. Also thanks for the review!
My favorite darth vader is still the newest black series ANH one. I am willing to sacrifice articulation for the look of the character. Also I feel like the best stormtrooper helmet sculpt is the original black series sandtrooper. It nailed the eyes and the mouthpiece, in my opinion
I honestly want to know why Hasbro made a different sculpt for their regular Stormtroopers rather than reusing the Sandtroopers. They were by far the best.
I will say, that is definitely the best Vader of the SHF line. BUT, I am still very much in love with Mafex Rogue One Vader. This new Vader is tempting, which I can't get anyway, but I would certainly like a Vader just to mess around with, and I think this would definitely be it. Too bad I'm broke. -_-
0:45 I dunno, the Rogue One Vader from Mafex is damn near perfect. 3:15 The RO Stormtrooper kind of reminds of the Rebels stormtrooper snow that I think about it. The shape of the helmet is a little funky.
Thank you for the nice review. Disappointed with the elbows of the stormtrooper. Maybe figuarts will come out with a rev 2, with double jointed elbow:)
Hey robo! I got that Darth Vader for Christmas and when I was posing it to put on my shelf the chain on the cape broke. I did some looking and found the old black series cape in my closet. I put it on (although I had to bury the chain under the head to make it look more accurate, and to make it fit in general) and in my opinion it looks better, because the cape doesn’t block your view of the figure underneath. It also looks more accurate because the cape is behind his shoulders not blocking them.
Just received my SHF Ep IV Stormtrooper today ... and WOW! This version beats my previous favourite, the Hasbro Stormy. I'm VERY picky on accuracy, & this is now the best 6 inch Stormtrooper I own. I never bought any of the previous Mafex or SHF versions, because of either weird cod piece lengths or innaccurate helmets - but these design issues are near as perfect on this Ep IV version. The cod piece is WAY better/shorter than previous versions (or as in early promo photos). The helmet is beautiful & even better than the Bandai model kit. I would highly recommend this SHF Stormy ! A+ to SHF ... finally !
Cloth for the cloak but plastic for the lower robe. Classic bandai, it seems like they actually messed up on purpose so they can sell another "renewal" version.
Hey Robo these both look super, especially the ultra-shiny -yet -detailed Vader head . Great review; also check out the Rebor Jurassic Park style dinosuars!!! Thanks man
13:32 - weird that the stock isn't functional. I have some 3 3/4" Hasbro ones that work; so you would've thought a larger high end version like this definitely would have. Anywho, I'm playing catch-up, and gotta get me this definitive 1/12 Stormtrooper figure. I'm limiting my 6" Star Wars collection to about a dozen, but I just gotta have a Stormtrooper.
Yup never had a silver chain. Either no chain or 3-4 black links. That’s why when I did my Vader series I gave it to Mafex who...apparently watched the movies before making their figures even if they run on the skinny side.!
I'm going to still have to go with the model kit Stormtrooper as the overall best representation of the OT trooper in 1/12 scale. Especially if given a white base coat, some slight scratches since no stormtrooper was 100% clean in the movies and finally a top of clear coat. And for the hardcore purists out there who know by memory all the differences between costumes, the model kit's helmet can serve as the Hero helmet while the new Figuarts helmet seems more like the Stunt helmet.
Glad you take care of your cuticles for close ups Robo. Some reviewers have nasty looking fingernails. Devil is in the details. Glad I rolled the dice and ordered 3 stormtroopers. Another great Fwoosh video.
I have a question . I found a couple of Hasbro Black Series Star Wars figures at my local Walmart. One is the red Sith Trooper and the other is a First Order Stormtrooper. Both are in white boxes instead of the usual black. What gives?
Nice to see the improvements in each iteration. Good comparisons. Personally i like the Bandai model kit for Stormtroopers and the Hasbro 40th Vader is close enough...until the next versions come out :)
This is a good Vader...but that torsos weird, and the traffic cone lower skirt would totally hinder posing. Nah, not gonna replace my Mafex Rogue One Vader wit those menacing red eyes
I guess I trust you enough cos I just spent my savings on it today Also, I found that the severed arm and alternate head fit well enough on the Model Kit so if you ever want recreate his final scene or just want Vader having a bad Monday, you can try doing that
I’m thinking of buying this figure but the plastic waist cape has me thinking if they’ll maybe make a new version with all cloth capes. Should I wait or buy this one now?
I think this Vader figure is the most movie accurate out of the rest. Looks just like RTOJ Vader to me. The Mafex Rogue One Vader is the best looking in my opinion, especially with the red eye lenses. Hard to pick one over the other as the best.
THX for this review!! I'm glad that I held off on buying the previous releases, as I like these 2 versions better. BTW... When do these 2 figures become available? I'd just checked Big Bad Toy Store today, but I don't see them listed / posted.
Haha, every new Vader is the best 😂 Sticking with my R1 Mafex Vader for now, but glad I picked up two Stormtroopers! And now I can properly recreate the opening Tantive IV scene!
Till now, the only Vader I’m completely satisfied and in awe by is the hyper real version That sculpt and proportions looks way too spot on with the only drawbacks being the scale (but that one I’m kinda fine with) and the possible fear about the rubber
You are right and i have it and it the perfect Darth Vader (Just too big for 6 inch scale) my only problem is that his boot came off the metal skeleton and the squishy goo inside was a mess. I did glue it back in and it moves how it used to now which is good. I do enjoy my SHF more in terms of playability

And also, very confusing!
Someone probably already said this, but Vader did have a chain in ROTJ but it was small and black not silver.
It was silver in revenge of the sith, correct?

Never thought we'd get a WW1 Lewis gun with a stormtrooper figure.
Chase Berry Don’t you remember when the stormtroopers were fighting the old Kaiser and the Jerrys at Verdun with with their fellow imperial doughboys.
Pretty much all of the weapons in the original trilogy have some sort of ww1/2 inspiration to them
The dl44 looks like a mauser for example
@@theundeadranger10 They're not inspirations, they're literally surplus guns modified. The prop team couldn't afford to make brand new weapons, so they just modified already existing stuff.

I believe Vader did have a chain in RotJ, but it was black, so we just didn’t see it until they upped the quality to blu-ray.
It's odd the chain is only visible In Rotj and your right it's a thin black chain, which means the silver chain featured in most of the other vader figures is inaccurate to the movies

Yep
I’ve been looking forward to the shf stormtrooper and was stoked to see this
I’m fine with the articulation simply because darth Vader was never very agile and his movements were limited so I wasn’t planning on having him in any dynamic poses
S.H. Figuarts ROTJ V2 is the BEST 1/12...so far. Great review as always.
The re release of the ROTJ Luke changed the head so it can go on this figure for that old man Anakin look. :D
May the real Darth Vader, please step forward... AWESOME Review. You Rock Robo!
If they made a Bespin Luke I’d pickup a Vader to go with. Until then I’m good. Nice vid 👍🏼
I'm so happy you found your Darth Vader!
This is the review I was waiting for, thanks!
They look good! I’m excited for the storm trooper, I passed on the Vader since I’m happy with the last release. Man that unmasked head 🤮 the older one is so much better. I use the older unmasked head on my shf Vader

The photo at 0:02 is missing the brazzers logo
Darth Vader always had a silver chain attaching the cape. but alot of the time it was caught under the neck armor of his helmet.
9:06 Lol I liked that way too much
Haha, I didn't know where I was going with it when I shot it, but it worked out.
Yeah, that Vader is really good. The new Stormy is pretty good, too. But the Model Kit one is still superior. They got a lot right, and a perfect helmet in my opinion. Still look at it on my shelf and see how great it is. But yeah. Think I will be picking both of these up.

I had instant buyer's remorse when I preordered these, but I think I'm going to open both of them.
I may have to pick these up. I have the storm trooper model kit but this storm trooper looks fantastic as well.
Took them three tries, but they finally made a half-decent Stormtrooper. Still not perfect, but looks much better than the previous two attempts.
@Secret AgentMan I think those kits are still the best looking 6-inch Stormtroopers.
I think the Rogue One version is great tbh
I know you had a hard time switching the heads, but I was really wondering if the SHF Luke unmasked Vader Head fit on this new Vader.
Also thanks for the review!
There's a size difference.
Yeah baby! Enjoyed it, I opted for a second trooper over the new Vader and sticking with the mafex rogue one for now. BUT definitely am tempted.
My favorite darth vader is still the newest black series ANH one. I am willing to sacrifice articulation for the look of the character. Also I feel like the best stormtrooper helmet sculpt is the original black series sandtrooper. It nailed the eyes and the mouthpiece, in my opinion

I think the SHF one trumps those two Mafex ones. Helmets look took small on the MAFEX ones, THOUGH the red eyes are cool.
Have you actually held a Mafex Rogue One Vader?

This new Vader is tempting, which I can't get anyway, but I would certainly like a Vader just to mess around with, and I think this would definitely be it. Too bad I'm broke. -_-

definitely worth it for the stormtroopers so much so I impulse bought 2 on the spot when I first saw them.

End of my dilemma, thanks again Robo, best Vader for you is the same for me.👌🏻
These Vader bois look pretty nice but I think ima stick with my 40th anniversary vader

Yup never had a silver chain. Either no chain or 3-4 black links. That’s why when I did my Vader series I gave it to Mafex who...apparently watched the movies before making their figures even if they run on the skinny side.!
I'm going to still have to go with the model kit Stormtrooper as the overall best representation of the OT trooper in 1/12 scale. Especially if given a white base coat, some slight scratches since no stormtrooper was 100% clean in the movies and finally a top of clear coat.
And for the hardcore purists out there who know by memory all the differences between costumes, the model kit's helmet can serve as the Hero helmet while the new Figuarts helmet seems more like the Stunt helmet.
