Just the head. Funny thing too because the email I got from them mentioning that they want pics of the destroyed head said not to burn or throw items from high places.

Damn, that is a brutal destruction

Not much, but my figure on display... soon he'll be moved to one of Coco's 3 figures shelves.

Is it me or is that Stormie trying to sneak in on Vaders picture?

Darn it man get that smoke generator on the go and get some pics up LOL

A little off topic. But it just bugs me how bad Maul looks next to the rest of the figures. Looks hasbro-ish. (need a medi maul in there) Looking through pics of Vader in others collections i've noticed it more and more lately, it just looks like he don't belong i dunno.

Anyways, Vader rocks!

Managed to grab a couple more not so hot shots. Need to go out (Whaa wanna play with Vder)!!!!!

First impression: Speachless.

Just so cool.

None of the issues others have had with Tusks etc. Just damn cool...

GET THE SMOKE GENERATOR OUT YA WEST COUNTRY JESSIE!!!

got mine this morning. Just incredible. Consider me another VERY happy customer. Well done Sideshow!!!

It's just amazing as it is... but me being me... I'm going to lower the dome (slightly) and tilt it back. I'm going to lower the head itself slightly closer to the shoudlers, to get rid of the gap between the neck piece and the shoulder armour. (I know it gives better articulation, but it's all about the looks for me), I'm going to smooth the shape between his chest and his stomach.... so the chest box sits straighter (it sticks out further at the top than the bottom, more than it should)

and........ well, thats about it.

oh wait, I'm going to add the widows peak at the front of the dome. Thers a few scratches on the dome so it would need replacing/repainting anyway. I was considering extending the flare at the back, but after comparing it to screencaps... its the right size. (it might be slightly too thin when viewed from the front... but the side profile is exactly right... it just needs tilting back slightly and lowering)

so those things will give me something to do...... whenever... i get some spare time

I love this figure!!!

LOL

The smoke machine hasn't arrived yet! But when it does, and I get the red filters I have ordered for my new studio lights - (Haven't used them at all yet, been waiting for Vader!!!!) You can bet I'll re-do some of these in a Red-light-district-total-smoke-tastic stylie!

Here's a few quick pics on the Kitchen table... Oh yes indeed it's fun time.
