Celebrate a very special moment in Star Wars history with the introduction of the 500th figure in this legendary collection of 3-3/4" action figures. No character is more fitting to mark this significant event than the ultimate villain, Darth Vader. Designed with incredible detail and superior articulation, it's sure to become a cornerstone in your collection.
Collectible 500th Star Wars figure features deluxe articulation and detail. Comes with meditation chamber with claw for lowering helmet. Measures 3-3/4" tall.
While it's easy to admire the moviemaking craftsmanship of director George Lucas as the Star Wars series evolved from a comparatively low budget 1970's sci-fi picture to a massive sprawling epic of 21st century light and magic, one must also pay heed to Lucas's business acumen. Way back in Star Wars' early days, Lucas managed to secure a significant percentage of revenue in what was then a tiny industry: toys and action figures. The windfall allowed him to create the, pardon the pun, empire he rules today. For the 500th action figure in the Star Wars franchise, we have been given the series' central figure: Darth Vader. He is impressively articulated and sits in his isolation chamber where his menacing helmet is lowered onto his scarred body. It's a somber figure and would be hard to really play with in the classical sense but its hard to imagine anything more collectible. --Charlie Williams

" yes admiral..what is it?" celebrate the saga in style with this one !:
this is a excellent figure..what a way for hasbro to clebrate their 500th figure. with none other than the sith lord darth vader himself in his hyperbaric chamber.
this figure is well done, vader himself is seated with the mechanical arm lowering his helmet onto him(or removing it..with a lever on the back) the figure has this "snap lock seal sound" when the figure is lowered and locked into place...vader also has his cape, and of course his deadly crimson bladed lightsaber...whats there not to... more info

The ultimate Darth Vader:
This Darth Vader 3.75 figure with star destryer command center is the ultimate vader figure. it is very durable, very fun, reasonably priced and overall one of the best toys for 6-13 year olds who wish to play and a colectable figure for any age.
A Little Small:
I should have looked at the specs on this, but I thought the figure was a little SMALL, and I am going to have to open it up, as ole Darth's helmet fell off and is rolling around in the box. Other than that ... it looks pretty sweet!
