This Darth Vader action figure was released in
2011 in the The Disney Collection.
It was exclusively available at Disney.
Hasbro gave the figure twelve joints and included
four accessories (red lightsaber, hover platform, control panel, soft-goods cape).
Here is what we noticed when we took a closer look at the Sith:
- Vader's helmet is one piece and can't be removed
- The right shoulder armor is weathered, while the left one is not
- The soft-goods cape can be removed (it's difficult, but can be done)
- 10 out of 12 joints are swivel joints, which for 2011/2012 is outdated
- Vader can only hold the lightsaber in the right hand, the left hand is molded with an open palm
- The lightsaber doesn't fit all too well, make sure to keep the plastic rubber band in place
- The included hover platform is new and looks nice
- The platform has a groove, but there was no accessory included that could be placed there
- The control panel plugs well into a little hole in the platform
The articulation details are as follows: swivel neck, 2 swivel shoulders, 2 swivel elbows, 2 swivel forearms, swivel waist, 2 swivel legs, 2 ball-jointed knees
