  62. SH Figuarts always set the bar very high for quality, articulation and detail and this Ep IV Darth Vader seems to also meet and exceed the bar ! The addition of the cloth cape enables better dynamic poses and combined with the expected smooth and solid SHF joints and sculpt make this figure a “must have” figure ! Great figure and a good review, thanks.

  63. Do not underestimate the power of the Figuarts! If this Sith Lord needs a home, I’ll happily give him one.
