Ok, it's a little late, but what with being in Canada and all, it took a while. Now, before you go on, as a big shock, I'm going to complain as a bit of a novelty for a geek board.
DBK was kind enough to pick one of these up for me to trade it to me. I was looking forward to getting it and we worked a fair deal and Matt packed it well and shipped it quick, so none of my gripe is with him.
I opened up the box and my first reaction was...
huh
It's kind of nifty in the package and all upon first glance. Upon
second glance it was more like
huh. That's about all I could muster. Matt told me ahead of time that the outer plastic wasn't mint and I'd heard other reports too. It wasn't in horrible shape, but I pressed out a pushed in section and I can't believe how ****** the case is. It's really soft, crappy plastic for a "protective"

case.
The Vader itself is I guess as should have been expected given it is a crappy old POTF2 Vader, but I actually liked that figure, both as the original (the first SW toy I ever owned) and the TFV version looked pretty nice too. But this one, um, sucks ****. Is that the right way to put it? I dunno, maybe it's cuz I have to go to the dentist today. I'm thrilled to have it and lame ass loser that I am, I'm getting another from Beth, but geez, I guess I was expecting more.
