Darth Vader Legendary Scale Figure

[jkno]

On a HT Facebook group, there’s a guy who got this and says it looks better than the proto. Love is blind but whatever floats your boat.

There is also a friend on FB that was against Iron Studios Vader, but loves this and bought it showing on FB. Iron Studios Vader might have the big chestbox and green lenses, but otherwise it is way above Legendary Vader on all other aspects like accuracy, finishing touches and details, price, collectability, options for display, you name it. There is no comparison between these two, the only good thing about SSC Legendary Vader is its bigger size, but even that can be a problem in the end.

If someone just wanted a big Vader and couldn't careless about the design/accuracy and other important aspect of a high end collectibles *SHOULD HAVE* (especially for a $2000+), they should go that route:

My friend is into Vader accuracy, owns SL and TM Vader helmets, that is why his Legendary option is so weird.

Iron Studios Vader kills this one.

Iron Studios Vader kills this one.

That's a tough benchmark though, it is so good makes all others seem worse.

Agreed.

Even if we didn't have IS Vader, this piece would be a giant turd.

 

[Shoo]

The head looking the wrong way...WTF were they thinking????

He looks like he's displaying something to a crowd "And over here we have the..."

Yes, he does!

When the new Vader PF, which has its own issues, easily beats it, you can realize how "good" the Legendary is...

 

[The Chaver]

Yeah, I got attacked in the you tube comment section by a guy for criticizing the LSF.

Wasnt even being rude one bit about it.

He was though.

 

[Centurion]

Agreed.

LOL!
Quite expensive one too!

 

[Slacker292]

Haha, Rafael is one cool headed ******. Spends up to 3 grand and goes...it`s ok. I would have expected and tolerated no less then awesomeness, when spending that kind of money. It`s the last nail in the coffing for this LS as far as I`m conserned.

To Rafael

Wonder how many they will sell.

Meh...

I don't understand what they were trying to do with his left hand. Give it a year and you'll probably be able to save a grand on this.

Not sure either. Between that and Maul throwing up gang signs (very awkward position they have his fingers in) I don't see how anyone would want these. Let's not get started again on that oversized lightsaber either. LOL!

 

[jkno]

What is that gas pipe that Maul is holding?

 

[Shoo]

(very awkward position they have his fingers in)

Yeah, those are Sideshow's trademarked artsy-fartsy 'I'm having a stroke' fingers. Fortunately they haven't done them lately, but give them time.

I quite like the Maul LSF despite his huge saber. But yeah, his hand is seriously weird. It's still much better than this Vader however. It's a huge shame that the LSF line in general hasn't delivered what it would potentially could have. These could have been the ultimate Star Wars collectibles. But they just aren't, and add that to the high prices and lack of an ES. Now I'm just hoping that Prime 1 will eventually get the license and do these right, ideally in 1/3.

Maybe Maul's a Zeppelin fan?

I agree with Vader, disagree with Maul, well I got mine for 800 bucks and it looks bad ass in person, the fingers are a bit odd. But that statue is bad ass! Vader no way, pile of crap!
