Kotobukiya Darth Vader (ROTS) Pics

This one has been in my collection for a while, but someone was asking me to post some of my Koto pics, so here they are.

Personally I think this is the better pose of the 2 Vaders available in the Koto line

Thanks for sharing... I've purchased one recently.

Seems like the cape makes it quite heavy and the statue seems to slant a little to the back.

Does this happen to all the ROTS models?

I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

If you just purchase your Koto ROTS Vader just recently chances are you got yourself an Asian version w/c compared to the US release is of poor quality!I know co'z I live in Asia&I saw for myself the poor quality!I purchased mine a few years ago US version&I've compared it to the newly released Asian version it's a no contest

Ive been searching for over 2 weeks wondering if anyone had similar problems. My vader is worse- he can barely stay upright. The lightest breeze and he topples backward off his stand. The back cape is too heavy, added to that the figure is naturally designed to lean back a bit.

Im sorely tempted to just gluegun his feet to the stand.

No one has these problems with their rots vader?

Not really. Below in the photo is mine and is there since I bought it years ago.
