Wait so I didn’t realize until looking at the product page for Obi-Wan, but the exclusive on that is timed too? BS from Sideshow with that.
 
No issues on any of my pleather. Rogue one and 1/4 are in museum poses and still look brand new. 40th is boxed but I assume fine. I try to keep humidity around 40-50% though. @Enkinen
A dehumidifier or air conditioning is a must for prolonging the life of your figures. I keep my figures on open shelves instead of enclosed cases for better ventilation and to minimise moisture. Pleather actually needs to breathe as well or it just falls to bits.

I’ve found US and Asian collectors take climate control more seriously. Coming from the UK, I’ve recently had to return two figures bought from UK based sellers that were in less than amazing condition. One had sticky plastic, the seller trying to pass it off as near mint! British weather may be mild, but the humidity can get rather high at times.

I am always horrified to see these collectors on youtube showing off their super expensive collection with cats and dogs walking all over their collection. :slap

Every single penny of disposable income from me will always go towards a collectible and not a pet lol
 
No it's the other way around, RO is taller.

Not sure if the RO body is shorter as it could have ankle extenders to make it the right hight as it would need modified lower legs to accept the unique ankle joints that the Vader boots use. But from the knees up, it’s the Reeve body. I guess I should’ve been more clear when I said “bigger” as I meant overall bulk rather than height. The only HT Vader I’ve ever owned is the original ANH but I kept an eye on the bodies since they were usually the MoS body which is good for custom superhero figures. That’s how I know the RO body is the Reeve body

Thank you both for the clarification. I only have the Rogue One Vader and he is one bulky and tall figure. Looks amazing, too.

I canceled my order and moved my NRD (it always is) to a more imminent release i’m really done PO figures 15 + months away.

Just like with Hoth Luke i’ll just order it once released in HK.

Gorgeous Vader though best one yet at 1/6.

i’ve mostly started doing the same lately, makes the wait feel a little less painful.

this was an exception though and an instant pre-order. for thirty bucks i have something to look forward to in the back of my mind for two years, that’s how i’m looking at it.
