I think they have more success with Batman
How many Vader's have they made?

The 2019 Vader PF from Sideshow featured the lightsaber in his right hand. The piece looks better than their latest offering. The base looks way better. The lightsaber looks on but off (no white center light).






Maybe this is the best Vader from Sideshow. Atleast the lightsaber lights up
The saber is the right hand.

I didn't particularly like the RO Vader, but looking at it now and comparing it to this, it's a lot better in most ways. And the other one is better than that. This whole thread is just making me sad all over again about missing out on the Iron studios version by a day....

I think every Vader they have made has been good the "lord of the Sith" PF is very good, lots of light ups, great pose.

The Mythos is very good and i have no doubt they'll do another.

The only mis-step is the RO version just because of the pose but it's not a terrible statue in hand actually.

I've got a feeling this ne wone is going to have a very simple base and is gonna be pretty classic with not much flair...

Is this the 1st Sideshow Collectibles Darth Vader PF ? - i am pretty sure it is, given the simple base.

For their next Vader, Sideshow should consider a Vader who is holding his lightsaber with two hands, and include a light-up option. They should consider a sculpted cape. Base should represent flooring in scale with the piece. An action pose would be great. Possibly a swipe pose, complete with scenery/structure(s) falling/breaking having been saber slashed.

I think SS makes Vader way better than Batman.
The first batman looked like he had pajamas on and it would tip over by itself. Then they made one with Chronicles of Riddick blades.. and a hunchback of Notre dame neck. The latest one isn't so bad but the portraits suck. Just my opinion though.

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

They should make a BatVader, it would be fantastic.

Why didn't they try out the Rebels design to go with the Ahsoka PF?

I apologize if it’s already been stated in this thread but which iteration of Vader is the new one from TESB or ROTJ?
