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

[zackg__]

For someone trying to build a custom Vader, does the Hot Toys cape work good for most of you or are you using custom capes?

I prefer the ANH cape over the rogue one cape. Drapes much better

How are all your tunics so straight and tidy! Mine is creased as **** and just doesn't sit right at the bottom!

Lol thanks buddy. I removed the wire from
the tunic, water treated it, and have 3 pieces of double sided tape holding it flush to the shoulder, cod, and thigh on each side!

If you search jazz inc Vader mods pt3 on YouTube, he shows how to do it. I just used a razor above the last stitch on each side and fished it out. Didn't bother sealing the stitch and even up close it's not noticeable!

I have a question, did anyone succeed in modifying the Rogue One Vader glove for the right hand to work with the light up lightsaber?

I don't think Vader's tunic in ANH was perfectly straight, no? Not as pleated as the R1 tunic, but not perfectly straight and ironed.

Wrinkled is more accurate but I had to iron them out lol. Other than that my Vader is pretty weathered and accurate haha

 

[SilverStar17]

Yep, it certainly is. I think it looks really good.
