Hi Tom & other Vader enthusiasts.
I started off thinking the Legend was the best there could be…..
following a progressive “re-education” from the content on this site & side by side comparison to a raw TM cast I now see the contrasting difference & look at the Legend in a different light (Dam- as the Legend costed a lot of cashish!)
But can you tell me something….
It can be seen and its mentioned that the efx has a smaller top of the Dome & the SL has a higher version. How can this be possible? Especially if they came from the same mould? Without knowing anything about moulding or making casts, I can’t understand how mould could extend in one place without having major distortions.
How is this possible, Do you have any reference photos that show whether the bigger or smaller dome top is accurate?
Don’t hit me guys (especially you tom!)—“cringe”… but from the limited observations I’ve made comparing to the dome on the original shown in this photo, it appears to me that the ANH Vader is closer to the smaller dome top look than the larger. Hey , I’ve got no agendas, it’s just from what I can make out, I’m just using my analytical eye & letting my observations be the judge.
Happy to be corrected, …. Please set me straight if I’ve got it wrong!
Thanks from the “newbie”
