    Me too. I own the SS ROTJ Deluxe version and can't decide if I want to take it out or wait. I'm leaning toward the HT version though.

    I am only in if that cape is poseable, that is the only I can justify a third 1/6th scale Vader on my shelf. Lol

    Pre-order sold out in half a day? Or is that just a website glitch?

    Addendum: BBTS confirms that their pre-order is full.

    I thought about jumping on the bandwagon, but I just can't justify that price point, not for any figure. I will be happy with one of the upcoming 1:12 scale versions - Medicom or Figuarts - whichever is best.

    Hahaha, perfect response.

    I have been waiting for a Hot Toys Darth Vader, but I'm still going to wait.

    1) I want a Empire Strikes Back version, the costume details would make it more appealing to me.

    2) Hot Toys always improves with additional attempts at a character, and while this version looks great, a second attempt will likely be even better.
