Re: Life size darth vader figure

Good luck, bro! My eFX Vader came in a huge box. Wives equate box size to price.

Re: Life size darth vader figure

My wife was po'ed when she saw the Legend box. I could only imagine her reaction when someone carts up a life-size box...

"Is that a new fridge! Yay!"
"Um...er...no, it's a life-size Vader"
"What?!?" *scurries off..

"Where are you going?"
"To call the lawyer."

Re: Life size darth vader figure

I sent the picture to my wife witht he caption "Sideshow is making a life-sized Vader… I’m going to sell all my toys and buy this."

Her response:
"Are you serious????"

that could be good or bad

like "are you serious?"......that's awesome

or

"are you serious" & lands a shoe upside your head

He does need a bit of futzing... the inner robes should be closer to the chest box. But I assume that is not a design issue.

Cool piece, but don't think I need any full size items in my collection.

Option B

Re: Life size darth vader figure

Yeah, option B all the way... You need to take into account that my wife is 5'2", so having a 7' tall Darth Vader in the house would scare the crap out of her.

Do it!!! Someone in this group (with a significant other) needs to take the plunge!

Just make sure you video tape the response.

She keeps me in check...which is a good thing with my spending habits.

It'd be the size of a coffin, so at least she'd have something to bury him in.

Just Crumb, right?

It is very nice.

And I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole.

Well if Gino is involved, there won't be any issues with accuracy that's for sure.

Re: Life size darth vader figure

Looking good. I'm sure this will be a huge seller.

We need that kind of art direction on their scaled version in that stretch between prototype and production piece to really push that one over the top like this one looks to be from that slightly blurry picture. THAT in sixth scale would kick it out of the park!

Is it me or is Sideshow taking things to another level with these full scale figures these days?
