I picked this up at FANEXPO Toronto yesterday. These are due to be released in Jan 2023, but a vendor here had a limited supply. Apparently they corrected the undersized dome, but I don’t have anything to compare it to. The vendor also said they changed the eye lenses to red. If it has any inaccuracies, I don’t care… It’s AWESOME!

Congrats on the new helmet! I agree - it looks great!

I saw the prototype at Celebration and was pretty impressed. I’m no Vader expert, but I think the bucket will make a great display piece. I have one on preorder from BBTS. Glad to know they’re starting to get out there already!

Looks great! Can't wait to get one myself. Some quick notes RE: this new version compared to the original Black Series helmet:
-The dome is the same undersized one used on the original from 4 years ago.
-The new helmet has a longer front neck, and smaller triangular chin vent compared to the original Black Series helmet
-The eyes are now a red tint
-The faceplate now has the two-tone paint scheme from Obi-Wan Kenobi/A New Hope

Has it really been 4 years!?!?! Holy cow…
 
Looks great. Love the stand.

Could you take some pics from a little farther out and front, side, etc.

Thanks
 
This looks good. If only the eyebrow shape on the helmet and dome were less "mean" angled this would be an unquestionable buy. This looks great for a mass manufactured piece.
