Interesting use of the word 'characters' in this quote from Brian last year -
“By making deluxe versions of classic Star Wars characters, we can introduce figures like the Stormtrooper to a new generation of enthusiast and provide seasoned collectors with new types of toys that deliver an unprecedented scale and complexity.” - Brian Flynn, Founder of Super7.

Jumbo Vader to follow?! Going to need a bigger house!
(sorry if this is old news and been mentioned before)

 

It has been, but no biggie! Reiterating info doesn't hurt...especially for those not keeping up or otherwise too lazy to read previous posts.

Anyway, here's another pic that shows the detail of the blaster a bit better due to the lighting:

holy crap i had no idea that was going to be THAT big! whats it measure?

 

Judging by the small Le Merde in the earlier pic, maybe 28-30" tall?

 

Jumbo Machinders are usually about 2 feet (60 cm) tall.

 

I wonder if the Sucklord has a casting setup big enough to bootleg this. It'll look pretty in pink.

OK, is there a full link of those things? Is that like last years "Vader Project?"

Some of those are NUTS! I love the Mars Attacks and fat Con-Attendee versions most.

 

that vader unmasked has to be the most realistic figure iv ever seen. that is NUTS. i love the stormpop

 

All of the custom stormtroopers rock, that comic con goer one is great.

 

It's a LIFE SIZED BUST!!!! I asked my wife "What if I had that in the living room?" My wife replied with a dead stare than left the room. Perhaps that was a YES!?

 

Yea, the masked and unmasked Vader was pretty bad ass.
Here's the two next to each other.

 

Same bust, actually, you can pop the dome on or display it separate. I really want one, but I just can't throw down that money. Plus, I guess it'd creep me out a bit to have Sir Sebastian Shaw staring at me while I walk around the house.
