Kaws Vader !!!

IMG_2224 400x599

So I finally got my Kaws Vader thanks to a Skullbrain boardmember. You don't wanna know what I had to give him for it. Let's just say i've enjoyed these two pieces long enough and it's time to allow another passionate collector revel in their beauty. I believe it was a very fair trade as these Vaders are going for an arm and a leg. First thing you notice is how small it is. Although I've seen size comparison shots, it still looks small. It's only 10" inches tall so he's not even 1/6 size. But when you look at my size comparison shots below, they make him seem big....odd...

I'm not a huge Star Wars or Darth Vader fan. Nor am I particularly a big Kaws fan either. But I do dig this figure. Dunno, it's hard to explain, but he's pretty detailed, has a cool cape and has a presence amongst all the other toys. It would be cool to have more Kaws x Star Wars figures too. Kaws x Storm Trooper, Boba Fett, Tie-Fighter Pilot and of course.....Kaws x Darth Maul. That would be pretty cool....

Darth Vader Samurai Armor!!

ref1-7239

Since Darth Vader's armor was originally designed after traditional Samurai armor, it's only fitting to have it come full circle with a traditional Samurai armor suit modeled after Darth Vader!!! Part of the 30th Anniversary of Star Wars, we have a scale replica of the Samurai suit Darth Vader would have worn if he was part of the Shogun era! Details like the Empire Crest and light sabre katana make this nearly 3' foot tall suit of armor a fitting tribute. Details like this cost money though. In this case, nearly $3,500 dollars!!! This would look pretty dope in my Foyer!! lol....Die hard Star Wars fans only...
