They had to have forgotten to mention it. No way it doesn't light up. That would be an epic fail.

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in half and put it back in your pocket.

I'm thinking maybe they're saving some of that reveal for the PO on Thursday just like they saved the lit up lightsaber from showing it in the video until today's pics. Just like they'll reveal he has a head you can rotate, but they didn't mention that today.
At least, that's what I'm hoping.

I recall that Asajj had her right heel lifted and you could see it in the promo pics even if it was really hidden by the dark of her skirt.
But those were the good ol' times of the zoom function  |
When I get on my mac I can lighten it up but I can't from my work computer.
Here. Best I could do:

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

At this angle with a turned head.. Looks great and I will PO.. It's not perfect... But it is in that shot at that angle.

It's not IMPOSSIBLE to be in that stance, it's just unnatural.
Of course, if you like it, there's nothing wrong. I just don't feel it and it's one of the (many) reasons I'd rather skip this one.

I think it's suppose to represent a moment in time... We can look off balance and strange in photographs... Having said that.. I don't think it translates well to statues.. It looks like Vader is getting ready to fly LOL... But I like the way it looks overall..
I could care less about light up chest.. I had the original Vader and I would say I used the light up feature on that for approximately 3 min total over the 4 years I owned it.

Ugh, can't really tell from that. But appreciate the effort, mate. Hopefully you're right and the PO page will have more details + light up shown.
Also, isn't it strange that the lightsaber is fully lit? I thought that the LED lighting only allowed for partial light up (with the tip of the blade left unlit).

Everyone who is clamoring for light up features seems to forget that once they fail and there is a fair chance they will, Sideshow provides no provisions to get them repaired. You are SOL.
I prefer that Sideshow do away with their light up features entirely until they come up with a way to repair them when they fail.

Its not led anymore. Not sure what you call it. It's like the Shaak Ti and the blue woman (I can't believe I don't remember her name. Starts with "A") statue where the entire lights up. Pretty bright too.

In the picture the foot is clearly fully placed on the step. |
His right foot is off the heal and most of his weight is on the left foot. It looks to me like he is walking or stepping up the stairs not down.

Yeah I think the helmet is off too. Looks like their 12 inch Vader. I think it's because Vader's helmet should be 2 tone color, silver and black.
The suit details look great.
