Toyguide Update: Disney Store Exclusive Limited Edition Darth Vader Figurine

LE_vader_figurine_preview

The Yakface Toyguide updates resume today with our next entry in the series of Disney Store exclusives: the Limited Edition Darth Vader Figurine.

PROS:  The overall sculpt and size is good, making it manageable for most display applications. The deco has a nice mix of glossy and matte finishes (with a few paint application issues) to give depth and realism to the dynamic pose. The statue has some heft to it so it doesn’t in any way feel cheap or plasticy. Imperial cog base gives it nice presentation while making it very stable for displaying. No assembly required.

CONS: A bit pricey for the size and its limited edition (500 piece) production run is driving up the secondary price on eBay with listings ranging from $200-$1000.

Head to the toyguide for the full image gallery and judge for yourself whether this piece is worth adding to your collection.

You can also weigh in with your impressions on the figures we add to our toyguide on facebook and in our forums.

While new figures in MedicomToy’s Kubrick line seem to be a thing of distant memory, that doesn’t mean the releases have ended. JediDefender has alerted us to word of an exclusive carded Luke Skywalker (Jedi Knight Outfit) given out at the 2014 Medicom Toy Exhibition Preview Party. The figure itself looks to be a reissue of the DX series Jedi Luke minus the bone accessory. Click the image above for a closer look.
