Do you know when you're going to have more Vader Tour pics?

Not sure. I'm busy with a few projects at the moment, but I will get back to this eventually. In the meantime, here are some pics I took of the PA ESB stunt and the Hollywood Studios Vader displays:

Just an FYI, the photo of Vader holding the little girl up is from the ROTJ era.

Here's a photo I took of a Vader tour suit on 10 December 1984.

ROTJ was screening in New Zealand, and I was a police officer in Tokoroa, central North Island. The cinema manager called into the station from his theatre over the street. He was all geared up as Vader, so I whipped him into the charge room and took mug shots. It was on a little half-frame 35mm which we'd send away to HQ when the film was full.

To my surprise Photo Section sent the picture back, and even enclosed the negative, which I still have. Dave Prowse was quite amused when I told him about it when he signed it some years back. I have posted this photo some years ago, and I remember one of the RPF members had it as his avatar for a while.

I remember trying the helmet on and being struck by the size and weight. Greg (cinema manager) was a short Vader and the robe must have been designed for ordinary folks or else it would have dragged on the ground.

Wonder where it is now.

Necropost! I finally found the one surviving picture of Vader's visit to Fresno in 1977 or 78. Probably not helpful, but now I can close the book on it.
