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

[matrix69]

Satisfied my curiosity as to how the Dredd gloves would look on Vader and I can say that the stock hands look much better, IMO. I can see why Hot Toys sculpted them the way they did but if they would have made the hands a smidgen bigger, with thicker fingers, they would be perfect. Anyway, here's a couple pics.

Nice job,they look great!

It's not the hands that are so much of a problem as the thick piece of fabric forming the back of the glove itself. That's just plain wrong.

They need to be replaced with a single moulded glove/gauntlet.

Why not a two piece, with the hand as they are now, but actually sculpted to look like the are part of the glove? I do not get why they just did not do that? Easy solution!

That works, too. Probably better. The way X-Wing Luke and the Hoth figures were done.

Has to be better than the too obvious fabric 'attachment'.

"Commander, tear this ship apart until you've found those plans!! And bring me the passengers! I want them alive!!" and "Now, Your Highness, we will discuss the location of your hidden rebel base." Love those pics!!

Beautiful and Vader should not be in the same sentence but that is one beautiful Vader!

The helmet is sensational! It really captures the ANH Vader. ESB Vader was too polished and symmetrical, in Star Wars he was big, rough and brutal.

There's something dirty about this picture.

Thankfully, Sideshow corrected their codpiece.

If not for the fat stitching on the cape, this could easily be mistaken for a movie still. Great photo!

Yes, I noticed that fat son of a stitch.
...Only bad part of the cape.

I guess those clutching hands are good for something.
