His sabre fails to make sense. If it lit up then fine, the clear dark red makes sense. Since it does not light up, then they should make it look like it is lit up using bright clear red over white centre, or something like that

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

It looks good, but his Saber and Base should definitely light up.

Also mixed feelings about so much cloth. Such a pain to get right

I'm pretty happy with my current Vader PF, just waiting for a 1/2 scale Vader with lightsaber.

I think it's okay. Nothing really spectacular. The ribbing on the suit makes it look like a leisure suit. Something's off about that. Maybe a bit too baggy?

I don't think much to the pose. The hand out is fine. Combined that with straight legs, looks lacking in purpose.

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

That's hilarious because they were going for a combat look.

Not a Star Wars collector, but I think Vader looks alright, not impressive though.

Add generic to that, and out of scale. It is the sort of thing PCS did with Chun-Li and Cammy 1/3

I like bases to look in scale with the piece, and fit. The Sideshow Chewbacca PF is a good example.
I think there were two versions of the Chewbacca base, the later being the better.

I don't care for it. And I never cared for Darth Vader having a castle. I think its a silly concept.

There doesn't appear to be anything remarkable about the piece.
