Because I sure as hell ain't. We finally have the mastodon helmet. Yes its basically a repaint. But its Vader. My only beef with it is I don't have it in my hands yet.

I have his legends figure so I'll pass on this one. The helmet is cool and all but I don't really need it. I'm glad those who missed him the first time around will be able to get him again.

I'm disappointed that my mail man won't hurry THE UP so I can finally have this bad boy in hand

I'm just a huge Vader fan. I HAVE to buy anything pertaining to him. I don't want his memorabilia. I NEED it, man.

Is the head scan any different? Not in the slightest. The only difference is his beard and hair are a richer orange. They have moc and loose pics on RSC.

I love Vader, one of my all-time favorites. The legends fig is one of the reasons I started collecting mattels. E31 is a dream I never thought we'd see produced. Nobody should be disappointed. The attire is great and that helmet is incredible, and for that I'll let them slide on a new scan lol.

I don't know if the helmet is enough of a reason for me to buy a third Mattel Vader figure.

Have the Legends version as well, so this was an easy pass. I'm not against this kind of thing though. I want to see another Elite Kevin Nash happen and I think it would be great to see better versions of Sarge, Snuka, Dusty, and Rick Rude any way we can get them. So hopefully this does really well and we see some of the same situation moving forward, where applicable anyway.

Since I have a Jakks helmet, I am not sure if I am going to buy this one or not. Still on the fence.

Once I heard this version was coming out I sold my L3. Vader time is the 1 I grew up with.

I'm dissapointed that I have a Vader in my collection that goes with very few other figures in my collection.....
That said I may order one when I get paid as I'm looking to get back into collecting. I'm just sad that I have such a large gap in my collection as I have not collected since Elite 23.

Well it is just a Re-Paint with a Helmet & 1 Mask instead of 2 Masks and a Robe... So yes im somehow disappointed and because i already have the Legends Vader i dont think i am going to get the new one just because of the Attire, more orange looking hair and a Mastodon Helmet

I'll wait to say anything until I have it. I didn't grab the first, so I'm very excited about E31.

I am they could've made a new head or better attire I get where you're coming from as far as the scan. But he didn't have that many iconic attires. The only ones I can think of are what's been released already and that lightening bolt attire when he debuted with the full mask

Like mentioned before, the scan is not that big of a problem since we got his most memorable attire and the Mastadon mask. Thank you Mattel!

Looks great to me. No problems with the headsculpt and this is the outfit I wanted a Vader figure in. Even without the helmet, I'd be looking forward to it!
