Title: Not exactly as announced
Product review: I own a large collection of Darth Vader items. I was excited about this product since it was a high-end collectible instead of a toy.There are however many flaws in it, which I will describe in detail:1)The product is marketed as being 17" tall, but that is only if you measure it from the base to the tip of the raised lightsaber. The Vader figure alone is barely 7-8" tall.2)The statue is said to be made of high grade resin. I could not find a single resin piece in the box. The base is plastic with screws, the figure is made of something similar to ABS plastic (hard plastic).3)The price was fair for a resin statue 17" tall but not for a small, hard plastic figure. Think of it as a figure from the Unleashed line with a large base.I would recommend to stay away from it and invest instead on a real high-end collectible such as the ArtFX/Kotobukiya vinyl figures (do an Amazon search for kotobukiya). They are about the same price, 11" tall and feature awesome sculpt and detail.
Would you say this review depicts the product in a flattering or unflattering light?
