When you say something is too "short" or too whatever. What does that mean? It's like you are saying Vader can only have ONE exact look down to almost microscopic detail that is unchanging, when the fact is his look changed from film to film, even in the original trilogy.The helmet honestly looks better here than in the show. The cape chain is still too short which I think brings the cape too far forward and around but it looks better here.
I felt the shows helmet dome looked way too small, but here it looks much better, so I guess it's how it was shot because what Adam is shown here looks better than what was in the show even though it's the same thing?????
In the Obi Wan series to me many shots, especially close up, the dome looks undersized. Just overall too small. Other shots, wider out look better, although I feel the suit shown in this video looks just awesome. One nit pick is at this time it should have the Widows Peak.When you say something is too "short" or too whatever. What does that mean?

But I never heard anyone complaining about Bob Anderson, and I think hardly anyone realized that in ROTJ it wasn't Prowse or Anderson in the costume walking down the shttle ramp from the Shuttle on Endor when he heads to Luke's surrender.
This is the way that we as kids "thought" Vader looked back in 1977. This was our head canon.
I've gotten close with my ESB/ROTJ hybrid. Not there yet... still needs adjustments and upgrades

P.S. That's not Prowse or Anderson in the "I see you've constructed a new lightsaber" scene, the specific 2 second shot when Vader is examining Luke's saber up close. That was a pickup shot done sometime later Fall 1982 with stage technician Harold Cole standing in for Vader.
Love this photo
Well I loved the show, so whatever floats or not floats your boat.It’s painful to see just how much passion and care these guys have put into recreating iconic sets/costumes/props for Disney’s garbage movies and shows. If only the writers and producers cared even half as much about honoring the legacy of the source material as the prop teams do.
A super-cool recreation of the Vader suit…for a terrible show which completely shatters canon by having him fight Kenobi in-between films.
Sigh. It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.
