Star Wars Rogue One Darth Vader Figure Review

One of the best scenes from Rogue One: A Star Wars Story was when Darth Vader arrived, with this action figure bringing that scene to life. This 3.75 inch figure comes with a cape plus a lightsaber and gun accessory.

Here is a look at the packaging:

Here is a look at this Darth Vader figure:

There is one part of this action figure that confused me, I don’t understand the need for the extra gun accessory, which seemed a little temperamental when trying to use it.  Darth Vader doesn’t use a gun in the movie and it just seems like a odd choice to include it.

I’ve been really impressed with the figure since it includes lots of detail, especially on the chest and on the head, plus it has detail across the entire body such as its arms and legs.  It’s a shame the cape isn’t made of material, rather than of plastic, so it would offer more movement, plus it kept falling off while I tried to position it, so that’s a bad sign that children will probably end up losing it.

The lightsaber is also a great accessory and for a budget action figure, this is a easy recommendation and one of the better figures from the Rogue One range.

OVERALL:

This Darth Vader action figure is a great addition to any ones collection and more importantly, great for children to play with.  This figure instantly took me back to being a child and playing with a figure, which looked similar to this, however it didn’t have the level of detail that this figure does.  Its a great budget Darth Vader action figure and well worth picking up.
