*Nods in agreement*

Might be interesting to see him displayed alongside an Armada Unicron and Cybertron Primus....

There also appears to be 4 figures hidden in the body...1 on each leg and then 1 above each shoudler on the "inner death star section"

TBH The thing doesnt look all that bad at all!

Does that mean there's the possibility it might be a kind of triple-changer? Darth Vader, Death Star and playset?

It could be a mini playset... But then again every SWTF comes with a mini figure to sit in the cockpit. It could be that the Deathstar is so big that they decided to give it 4....the MF had a mini Chewwy and Han Solo figure. It will be interesting to see when we get more images of this guy.

Hm, yes, but the Falcon was also two figures, a Han and a Chewie, that combined into one vehicle, hence two mini-figs. As far as we know at the moment, this Vader appears to be a single figure.

Of course, it could be like you said, a matter of sheer size.

Huh. Whaddayaknow. For a SWTF, that doesn't look half bad.

Indeed. For once it's not a robot with a SW character head slapped on top of it.

Now I could get this and like it, but the plastic still needs to be better than was on the SWTFs previously.

Looks like the figs are Darth (duh), and a couple Stormtroopers (whether they are Han and Luke in disguise is yet to be seen). The fourth could be anyone, the Emperor, Tarkin, Obi Wan... who knows???

Pretty cool. 8)

Wow, that looks amazing!

I only have one little complaint... why the hell would Darth Vader need a gun? He's friggin' Darth Vader. That's so unlike him.

And at first glance, it seems like a new mold, or a very least a MASSIVE remold of the Primus design.

I never thought I'd say it, but there's finally a SWTF figure that I want.. hopefully there'll be enough produced so I can pick one up on clearance, but when looking that good, it might be hard to pass up if I see it at all.
