Sorry Hasbro, I am not dropping twice the cost for essentially the same figure with some giant cardboard backdrop.

1. This Vader is getting a separate release later this year at normal price without the giant backdrop.

2. I can tell you that, having this in hand, it's more than just a better helmet. Almost the entire figure is a new sculpt. Everything is better proportioned and shaped, and all the details are more accurate. It's not "essentially" the same figure; it really is a 2.0.
