The Best Animatronic I ever had. As a Star Wars fan, this is a must! At the beginning I thought it will look weak, skinny and poor quality looking like other animatronics from Home Depot but it did not. This thing is AWESOME and looks perfect as a prop in a collection/media room.

WOW, I ❤ IT!!! AWESOME!!! I AGREE with you. I'm a HUGE fan of Darth Vader, and I swear after all these decades he is still the hot ticket. Disney was an idiot not to capitalize on that and they still are...we need more of his backstory. If you look at the Empire State Building in New York and you look at all the Fanfare, and even KZbinrs still do all these "what if" scenarios on Anakin and Vader because he is still the most ICONIC and the most MEMORABLE and eternal part of Star Wars and will be FOREVER. As Vader would say... "Impressive, most impressive...!"

Very cool! Good review, too. I noticed that his outer helmet is warped on the left side, probably due to how it was packed in the box. To fix that, just take a hair dryer, hold it a few inches from the surface, and go back and forth over the warped area for about a minute to soften the plastic. You should be able to return it to its proper shape after that, and once it cools, it will be good as new.

“It’s not accurate” Look yeah, this isn’t an accurate Vader design. But also, I’m not buying a screen accurate suit, I’m buying a $300 prop to decorate my arcade with/Halloween decoration. Would I love if it was more realistic? Absolutely. The truth is that most “pretty good” Vader helmets will run you over $350 alone. The people buying this are people like me who know it’s not correct but have always wanted some semblance of this iconic character in their home or casual fans who see this as just Darth Vader. I love detail, I love being in universe (my Jedi outfit is Rebel Legion approved) but sometimes it’s okay to know these things are strictly for enjoyment and that’s okay. The attitude of some of these comments have the same energy at yelling at an excited 9 year old for having a plastic lightsaber instead of a legit hilt.

I found one of these for sale, they want $400. They say it's 'new' but the packing tape on the box doesn't look right. What should I offer? They sold new from Home Depot for $299 plus tax, so that would be $330.
@ViewsFromTheCrypt-lm2kz4 ай бұрын
I would get it and have them open it up in front of you to make sure it’s all there. $400 isn’t bad. I’ve seen them as high as $1000. Retail after tax is around $325 so not to bad. It’s still worth the $400.

I've had the weirdest problem with mine. After having Darth plugged in (on sensor mode) for about 2 weeks he started malfunctioning. His right wrist (his light saber hand) started twisting back and forth at the wrist about 1/4 inch. At first it went back and forth for about 20 seconds before it would stop. Then after about 2 weeks later it just twists non-stop after his performance each time. The only way to make it stop twisting is to turn the power off completely/unplug it. Sent vid to SVI techs and they are sending a new "right arm." Has anyone else had this problem? It's very strange and just got progressively worse over time.
