Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Those are awe fully rounded human looking toes for someone with robot legs. He was cut off above the knee on both legs.

Those are just mechanical toes, much like they gave Maul a human looking foot and defined toes for his Mythos. I'm cool with it, but ToeGate has begun!

He has a robot knee because we can see that, but you're very right Gra that those are very rounded human looking toes.

Which begs the question, they could make human looking toes but not knees?

I don't know what is going on here, but it seems like a really strange art direction to have Vader look so dope but then oddly give him exposed robotic/human toes. Why not just a the boot?!

EDIT: After Ice Dog's post I looked at Maul. His knees are rounded like a human. Why aren't Vader's? I am full of questions that have no answers

In revenge of the sith, when Anakin is on the operating table being put into the Vader armor, you can see that he as defined human toes on his one mechanical leg, which one could assume would be true for both his legs.

Gnarly. The little things I didn't catch. Thanks Lord Maul. Now I suppose I wonder why he kneecap is not silver in color. I'm sure it's been replaced once or twice due to battle damage

Most likely...any guesses? These are the ES numbers for the current Mythos line:

Ventress - 4500
Maul - 4500
Obi-Wan - 3500
Anakin - 2500
Sidious - 2000

The Maul mythos is $615, so that's already pretty close.

Yeah, it's a nice touch, no mistaking that T-65 X-wing engine. I could see Vader taking it down like he did with this Y-wing.
