That would’ve been really cool. But on the other hand - people wanted to see Darth Vader in Episode III. That was the climax they have build towards with the prequels. I'm not sure if changing his look, even for something as iconic as the McQuarrie concept art, would've gone over well. Also, marketing and merchandising. Plastering the classic helmet design all over the place gets more people hooked than something only fans are familiar with.

I hope they mix up the "image" of Darth Vader in the Kenobi series in a different way - let him remove his helmet! Hayden looks awesome with the makeup put on; the scenes in the Bacta tank are so cool. I want to see him actually act as Vader with that makeup on. No battle damage like in the comics, video games or when Ahsoka slashes him in Rebels - let him remove his helmet on his own terms. That would be awesome IMO.
