I know it's an old comment, but I feel the need to point out: that's why I prefer Vader figures with no chain/molded on the shoulder armor chain. It's almost unnoticeable in the films so it's going to look clunky and cumbersome on figures smaller than sixth scale (which I honestly have no interest in for what concerns Vader, since they are way too expensive for me, the exception being the fantastic Disney Store ANH Vader. And even on that figure, the chain looks way too big and I think I'll be creating a wider cape without any chain).

I think the 1/6 Kaiyodo/Screamin Vader model kit has the best plastic Vader sculpt so far. I think it was actually casted and shrunk from one of the movie helmets if I recall correctly. The thing is it’s reversed for some reason, so the curves are on the opposite sides. Still absolutely gorgeous.

Glad to see a review of these as the prototypes looked pretty great but nice to see in issued form with no letdown. I ordered 2 Stormtroopers & 1 Vader a week or so ago & definitely looking forward to receiving. Thanks much for another HQ detailed review!

7:21 From what images I've seen of Darth Vader, he does have a chain holding the cape in place in the Original Trilogy, but it's smaller and black making it easy to hide under the neck portion of Vader's face mask. I'm not sure if it was always supposed to hide under the helmet, or if it was supposed to be visible.

Yay another Fwoosh review! This guy is my favorite reviewer on the web! He covers Marvel, Starwars, dc, and my personal favorite he covers transformers on his weekly Fwoosh! Thanks for all your hard work Fwoosh! I collect on a very low budget of a $20-$50 figure every 2-3 months so you help me to spen my money wisely! 🙏

Ah yes!! This is my most anticipated review of the year from you!! I just HAVE TO get my hands on those Stormtroopers, they scale so well with Black Series and I can use the other weapons for my Sandtroopers/Jump Troopers. Great vid, always glad to see you enjoying figs!

Great review. Glad u found the old Shf Vader I sent ya. I dont blame you for keepung that tiny guy in the box lol.

Great review Robo! This new Darth Vader head sculpt is the best and closet that I’ve seen thus far to screen accuracy in the 6 inch scale and the new Stormtrooper looks very good as well. Will be getting both.

I think I will get that ROTJ Darth Vader. He is the best Darth Vader yet in my opinion. (With the Black Series A New Hope One as second best) But I think it looks the best the helmet is the best yet. With good articulation to It’s very good to me.

Another awesome review, Robo. Keep up the great work!

I've been a fan of the Mafex RO Vader for a while now and I agree, I think this is my newest favorite Vader so far. Great silhouette overall and it feels nice to look at as a movie Vader.

I love that Vader. I just think it looks amazing, looking at the whole thing,the way it just stands there really shows the power for me. By the way your editing is becoming better and better and also more funnier, great job!

I have the RotJ model kit. I bought it after watching so many of your Vader reviews. I had so much fun putting it together, and painting It. He stands tall with the new Emperor from Hasbro. I just wanted to say thank you.

Yes it comes with all of the original kit plus 3 chest boxes, alternate cape and lower robes made of flexible rubber, a damaged wrist, and a prepainted Unmasked head.

The re release of the ROTJ Luke changed the head so it can go on this figure for that old man Anakin look. :D

I’ve been looking forward to the shf stormtrooper and was stoked to see this

I’m fine with the articulation simply because darth Vader was never very agile and his movements were limited so I wasn’t planning on having him in any dynamic poses

I've got the Vader and a pair of these troopers on the way. I'm hoping to find a good, third-party cape for Vader but it looks great! Great review as always!

This is the review I was waiting for, thanks!

I'm so happy you found your Darth Vader!

They look good! I’m excited for the storm trooper, I passed on the Vader since I’m happy with the last release. Man that unmasked head 🤮 the older one is so much better. I use the older unmasked head on my shf Vader

Darth Vader always had a silver chain attaching the cape. but alot of the time it was caught under the neck armor of his helmet.

If they made a Bespin Luke I’d pickup a Vader to go with. Until then I’m good. Nice vid 👍🏼

Thanks for the quick review. The small mound for me to die on, is why black socks. I always thought stormtroopers wore ankle boots so should be white. I don't know why it bothers me but it does 😣

I may have to pick these up. I have the storm trooper model kit but this storm trooper looks fantastic as well.

Yeah baby! Enjoyed it, I opted for a second trooper over the new Vader and sticking with the mafex rogue one for now. BUT definitely am tempted.

I had instant buyer's remorse when I preordered these, but I think I'm going to open both of them.

I have the original figuarts, which is dreadful, and the first mafex, which is slightly less dreadful. I think it's finally time to upgrade, thanks for the review.

I think the SHF one trumps those two Mafex ones. Helmets look took small on the MAFEX ones, THOUGH the red eyes are cool.

Hey Robo these both look super, especially the ultra-shiny -yet -detailed Vader head . Great review; also check out the Rebor Jurassic Park style dinosuars!!! Thanks man

Bandai's sculpt for Vader's mask is so good. Let down only by the fact they forgot to paint the alternating gunmetal grey patterns on certain parts of it.

Thank you for the nice review. Disappointed with the elbows of the stormtrooper. Maybe figuarts will come out with a rev 2, with double jointed elbow:)

Hey robo! I got that Darth Vader for Christmas and when I was posing it to put on my shelf the chain on the cape broke. I did some looking and found the old black series cape in my closet. I put it on (although I had to bury the chain under the head to make it look more accurate, and to make it fit in general) and in my opinion it looks better, because the cape doesn’t block your view of the figure underneath. It also looks more accurate because the cape is behind his shoulders not blocking them.

I know you had a hard time switching the heads, but I was really wondering if the SHF Luke unmasked Vader Head fit on this new Vader. Also thanks for the review!

Nice to see the improvements in each iteration. Good comparisons. Personally i like the Bandai model kit for Stormtroopers and the Hasbro 40th Vader is close enough...until the next versions come out :)

For drill you would want for that is small hand drill called a pin vise or pin drill it is normally used for models or jewelry and they normally for set very tiny set of drill bits come with them

Yeah, that Vader is really good. The new Stormy is pretty good, too. But the Model Kit one is still superior. They got a lot right, and a perfect helmet in my opinion. Still look at it on my shelf and see how great it is. But yeah. Think I will be picking both of these up.

The 4th anni is great for ANH, for sure. Some come with the helmet too wide, but some just right.

I will say, that is definitely the best Vader of the SHF line. BUT, I am still very much in love with Mafex Rogue One Vader. This new Vader is tempting, which I can't get anyway, but I would certainly like a Vader just to mess around with, and I think this would definitely be it. Too bad I'm broke. -_-

Just got my Figuarts Stormtrooper in today. For some reason his left arm doesn't hing up as far as the right one.

I rewatched the scene in rotj in which vader walks with palpatine and its really hard to tell if there is any silver chain on his cape. It looked like the cape was tucked beneath his neck. Maybe just remove the chain and glue it down?

Took them three tries, but they finally made a half-decent Stormtrooper. Still not perfect, but looks much better than the previous two attempts.

I guess I trust you enough cos I just spent my savings on it today Also, I found that the severed arm and alternate head fit well enough on the Model Kit so if you ever want recreate his final scene or just want Vader having a bad Monday, you can try doing that

Well I totally missed the darth vader boat - didn’t even know there was a new one or I forgot 🤷🏻‍♂️

Just received my SHF Ep IV Stormtrooper today ... and WOW! This version beats my previous favourite, the Hasbro Stormy. I'm VERY picky on accuracy, & this is now the best 6 inch Stormtrooper I own. I never bought any of the previous Mafex or SHF versions, because of either weird cod piece lengths or innaccurate helmets - but these design issues are near as perfect on this Ep IV version. The cod piece is WAY better/shorter than previous versions (or as in early promo photos). The helmet is beautiful & even better than the Bandai model kit. I would highly recommend this SHF Stormy ! A+ to SHF ... finally !

I received the Darth Vader today. Whoa.... Great figure. Also the seller already had a wired skirt on him. 😮

This Vader is just perfect in my eyes

Does anybody know if the black series vader cloak fit on this guy? I find it way too big..

Cloth for the cloak but plastic for the lower robe. Classic bandai, it seems like they actually messed up on purpose so they can sell another "renewal" version.

Yup never had a silver chain. Either no chain or 3-4 black links. That’s why when I did my Vader series I gave it to Mafex who...apparently watched the movies before making their figures even if they run on the skinny side.!

13:32 - weird that the stock isn't functional. I have some 3 3/4" Hasbro ones that work; so you would've thought a larger high end version like this definitely would have. Anywho, I'm playing catch-up, and gotta get me this definitive 1/12 Stormtrooper figure. I'm limiting my 6" Star Wars collection to about a dozen, but I just gotta have a Stormtrooper.

How hard is it to do a 3D scan of a movie accurate costume/helmet and shrink it down to 6" scale?

Whelp, at least I know that the Vader I preordered was one of the best Vaders around.

I'm going to still have to go with the model kit Stormtrooper as the overall best representation of the OT trooper in 1/12 scale. Especially if given a white base coat, some slight scratches since no stormtrooper was 100% clean in the movies and finally a top of clear coat. And for the hardcore purists out there who know by memory all the differences between costumes, the model kit's helmet can serve as the Hero helmet while the new Figuarts helmet seems more like the Stunt helmet.
