I was a six inch Black series collector, i have been stalking hot toys for years now and when i saw this battle damaged vader it single handedly pulled me into a new scale 😂😂😂. This will be my be all end all vader. I pre-ordered the deluxe with the cape 😂
This is different, I went all in for this guy. Yes ROTJ is coming in too, ut this got my attention since its announcement and already have an idea for display in a separate display case jusy by himself with red led lights, lava display.🦇🦇🍻
I am picking us up. I think it will certainly compliment my return of the Jedi Vader that's coming soon and already paid off. I will have fun mixing and matching the clean vader with the battle damaged version. I will also have both representations of the character in Sebastian Shaw and Hayden Christensen so I can switch my display whenever the mood strikes. I didn't get the Kenobi Vader and I'm happy I didn't. If you're going with battle damage, this seems like the better option. Of course that being said, I do also want the Deadpool that just came out and at The artisan black widow if I can get it, so I might chop this off my list down the line and lose my nrd if I find there's a lot more that I want a little bit more
They also use a nylon material instead of the usual pleather on this piece here which caught my attention, it was mentioned on 4:20 at the costume section . Hopefully this will be the solution to all pleather issues for future releases .
It is also listed on the Sideshow site in the 'what's in the box' description. I only read the Deluxe version one but it specifically mentions a 'nylon suit'.
Um, maybe people should strategically pick their priorities better. It cost more to see a 2 hour concert or 90 minute sporting event. For $480 I will have a lifetime of memories🫶🏼
This does look incredible. There’s no doubt I would love this as a center piece to my collection. BUT…… I do have the DX28 and I love it. So if I do miss out on this one I don’t think I’ll be too upset. I’m fairly new to hot toys so I have a lot of older ones to still be excited to experience. Great video my friend.
I ordered this since I don’t have a Vader at all, I always hear bad stuff about his material. This one may be the same, but, the way it looks makes it appear more dynamic even while doing very little. So, I’m in. Only other Vader I’d buy down the line is maybe a clean ESB Vader.
Same for me. I collect droids only and made an exception for both Grievous and Vader as they are cyborgs. This version shows so much of his mechanical build that I needed to have it.
Fair points but the Obi won Vader never did it for me. Didn't like the show much ether so that didn't help. THIS is beautiful!! Must have and already ordered. Instant grail! This on display will be breathtaking
The price is expensive, but I'm pre-ordering it sooner or later, as I don't have a Vader in my collection. Now, I'm wondering whether or not to keep my pre-ordered ROTJ Vader? But like you, I'm only interested in the battle damaged helmet, clean head sculp, and helmet version. I didn't like the Kenobi damaged helmet. As an ESB fan, Chewbacca is definitely coming home. He looks incredible.
Why would you cancel the ROTJ? It’s a clean and Canon Vader from an iconic movie. The new one only has a battle damaged Style and altough it’s very cool, it‘s a completely different figure
@@mitchelllawrence2798 then Go for it. By the time the pleather flakes in 10 years there will be Vaders on the market that will blow every current Vader Out of the water. The ROTJ and New Vader Are two different figures for me
I am a huge battle damage fan, I didn't get the Obi-Wan version cause I didn't like the rest of the armor being very clean and knowing I would only display him clean since I don't have a clean one. Now I will get the 40th Anniversary ROTJ and this one, I think both will compete my Vader fix. I also want to note that all figure prices seemed to go up. The Deadpool and Wolverine figures have a higher price tag too....
i cancel the rotj version and went with the battle damaged deluxe.the intricate parts they put in it..with that cybernetic empire tech they infused to anakin/revenge of the sith is super cool..did PO the deluxe instantly.
This Vader is really amazing, expensive and beautiful. It is from the Force Unleashed Video game. I am not getting this. Yet…I have time to decide. But on the side of no..for now. Damn you hot toys lol
It's a great looking figure, but $430 for the deluxe special edition? I think I'll pass on this one. Also, I just received my battle damaged Kenobi Vader.
“Samurai predator” sums up the deluxe super damaged Vader.

HT are strategically pushing the price upwards 😊

Thank you so much!
Like this Vader, When Hot Toys makes Darkside Anakin Artisan and possibly 2.0 Sculpted. Over $400 and Artisan over $500
@@ericheinke2865 I would rather have Dark Side Artisan Anakin than this FOMO Vader
This might have been that though. That leak people assumed it was artisan dark side anakin but could have been this the whole time.

I wouldn’t personally cancel the 40th Vader
@@malekith8447
1) Possibly pleather.
2) I'm more of an ESB than ROTJ.
3) This BD Vader looks better.
4) I don't want or need two Vaders.
@@mr.momcollectibles I hear you. If it's pleather? I will. I don't need two Vaders.

That price, all of these prices has totally pushed me out. I'm done. I've canceled all my preorders. It out of the game.
ewww, those meat melt is disgusting, no thanks
