Looks nice, but an off scale (if the 8" thing is accurate) line isn't for me.

It's ok but not really impressive for a $80 figure.

It's only $10 an inch, why are collectors so cheap? LOL

I want to see more photos, especially of the helmet at different angles, but the proportions seem very nice. Nothing stands out as particularly bothersome. I think I want one.

Definitely not worth the ludicrous asking price,

do we really need a new scale of star wars figures? 3.75, 6 and 12 are enough. I don't see 8 inch scale catching on at this point. People are too invested in the others.

Love the scale, not sure about the price.

Yeah, you're right. It doesn't really fit with anything else. I might splurge for Vader just because he towers over the other characters in the Star Wars pantheon anyway, and this Vader looks a lot better than the 6" version that It will replace, but I probably won't chase this new line for anything else unless it turns out to be particularly dazzling for some reason.

I wouldn't collect an entire line, but I might grab a Vader, Fett (either one) or Maul if I saw them.

I can't see the figure since Hasbro ordered the pics taken down, but I feel like it's hard to judge premium quality in a figure that's masked. It's like the Black Series Archive. To me, it's harder to tell the improvement in detail in a figure that has no face, just a mask.
