1/6 Hot Toys - MMS 279 - Star Wars Episode IV: 1/6th scale Darth Vader

[QuiGonFishing]

Ah, I have mine posed based on that scene as well. However, my sentiments were the exact opposite. I immediately attached the hand with the one finger extended, but something about it seemed off to me. Even though he didn't have two fingers extended, I tried that particular hand something about the way the fingers and the thumb are angled with that hand seemed to look better to me.

Great shot, SS!

I'm a little disappointed in my HT Vader

That's awesome! In that pose I imagine him saying in Arnold voice, "Crom! Da hell wit you!"

I'm thinking of changing the cape connector to a real chain instead of the black rubber.

I wouldn't, if you want accuracy. The costume prop was a cheap garden chain, I believe. It was plastic or vinyl.

Great shot, SS!

Thanks, QGF!

 

[Wor-Gar]

that mask looks great there too. I forget, any helmet lowering here, or just good shadows?

Actually no, he's as stock as can be in that photo, it's just the shadowing. I've only since had to replace the belt.

My figure OCD was bugging me...back to ANH gauntlets with different gloves I found in my parts box.

I really like how yours turned out. After seeing your pics I decided to throw on the SS ANH suit (with HT padded vest) and I think it definitely looks better. Especially the arms and legs as the suit looks less baggy. Using the HT vest means that he is a little more built in the chest than I like but removing it would mean that the belt and codpiece wouldn't fit without modification and I like to steer away from permanent mods when I can.

If only I could get ahold of some better gloves. I like that you found gloves that allow the hands to be in a relaxed position. Not enough figures include that relaxed, open position anymore. Something I always liked about Medicom figures. They always had them.

it never ends! but... I was fiddling with getting the nose plug out. and here's the lenses... backlit.

and inside the mask. don't know how I'm gonna get that nose plug out...

 

[Wor-Gar]

WOW! That's pretty damn accurate. Crazy HT - gets some things just so damn right, then others.... (?)

 

[TonTon]

Does the nose insert just come out from the front? Even without taking the mask apart it looked like there was some kind of insert at the bottom (maybe the mouth grill). Hard to tell what's going in your photo there below the eyes. Is there another insert or is it solid?

Do the lenses seem to have any tint to them or is it just a smoke color? Can't tell if it's picking up the orange look from your light source or if that's the lens color.

 

[rhboyd]

that's all from the lens. the light is a white led. I thought the nose was a plug in from the back. but I can see seams to get in there. it's tricky!!

 

[rhboyd]

and my thumbnail is gross. sorry!!!

 

[rhboyd]

looks like the breather grill and the nose plug might be one piece. not sure how to get in there.

Do you guys think there's a rush to get one of these?

No. If you look on your own hands, chances are you already have thumbs.

Interesting.
