I really want this figure. I've always liked ROTJ Boba's look just a lil' bit better than ESB (I think it's the red gauntlets). Contemplating getting a Premium Membership here and maybe try to sell off or trade some of my collection for some 1/6 SW stuff and Boba is high on my want list.
I'm no Fettxpert by any means but my only gripe about SSC Boba is the lack of triangles indented above the rim of his visor. Other than judging by pics alone since I don't own either HT or SSC Boba, I think both figures are pretty sweet.
I'm pretty excited about this. If this particular Vader is only released with Tarkin, it will be a good excuse to get the 2 pack since I missed out on both ANH and RO Vader and this is a perfect excuse for me to justify getting Tarkin.
Admittedly I'll probably use RO Vader as a stand in for ANH Vader if I'm able to pick up Tarkin and some Stormies, but I definitely want a separate ESB/ROTJ Vader to go with Jedi Luke (who I hope to PO I this month God willing). I'm no Vader expert by any means so I don't know every little...
Fantastic shots IndyMOS. Makes me want the HT RO Vader even more now. God Almighty I really hope HT does a reissue of this figure or release their inevitable ROTJ Vader.
Really nice and looks more like McDiarmid than HT's current sculpt. And that's my biggest grievance with this sculpt is I don't see McDiarmid's likeness at all.
I just want a head sculpt that looks like the Emperor. Maybe I'm being harsh but the sculpt shown so far doesn't remind me of PT or OT Palps. It would be great if HT includes a 2nd more neutral head sculpt though but if they do I wonder if it will be an exclusive.
Re: Hot Toys Episode 3 Anakin
The more I look at this figure, the more I want Padme to go with him. If HT ever does make a Padme figure I imagine they'll go with her EP2 arena outfit but personally I hope they go with her EP3 nightgown outfit. Would look great having Anakin and Vader posed back...
Yeah this sculpt reminds me nothing of Palpatine. Really hope HT tweaks it (and I'm pretty sure they will) because I would really like to get this one.
