The Rise Of Darth Vader - 2 pack

GNT · Oct 13, 2011

This set appears to contain Darth Vader and EP1 Anakin. Picture

There appears to be a Maul pack in the corner...

darthsatan · Oct 13, 2011

Repack junk!

bigbarada · Oct 13, 2011

Why are all of these Ep1 threads being posted in the TVC section? Shouldn't they be getting their own "Movie Heroes" section?

matt292 · Oct 13, 2011

I can just see this clogging the pegs at my TRU.....

Cell · Oct 13, 2011

Are these packs the successors of the Saga Legends figures?

My thoughts exactly. Yes, some of it is coming on TVC packaging, but this clearly isn't based on the image.

Seems like it should have its own section.

This set looks a bit poopy. I hope for it's sake the presence of a Vader fig will move it off the shelf.

Masterfett · Oct 13, 2011

If they would have tried with an all new peasant Anakin, I'd have bought it.
Unfortunately these 2-pks are too expensive when it consist of repacks of both figures!

Orangepeace · Oct 13, 2011

P for PASS!

trandoshanhunter · Oct 13, 2011

Yawn. Wait, what? Oh, PASS! stupid repack....

It won't, Vader's tend to pegwarm.

AnthonyP · Oct 13, 2011

Definite pass for me...Good for beginners, though.

Trooper31 · Oct 14, 2011

Another waste. Didn't they have this pack a year or so back, Vader Evolutions 2 pack?

Because we don't have any other section for these figures as of the moment

As for the figures, Anakin is nearly as big as Vader

Tyranusspotting · Oct 14, 2011

They really should have tried recreating the iconic Episode 1 Teaser poster with a Tatooine background on the card.

What a missed opportunity. I might have bought it just for that.

EmperorPalpitate · Oct 14, 2011

True story: My nephews tried selling the Anakin being used in this pack for $0.25 at a garage sale last year. Not one kid in their neighborhood wanted it. Methinks Hasbro puts too much faith in this outdated figure.

So...is Vader short...or Anakin tall?

Which Vader is that?

That Vader is the Vader from the Saga Legends Line in 2010 (Originally the 2006 Saga Collection TESB Vader/ 500th Vader).

On another note, this is a definite pass for me.

Scockery · Oct 21, 2011

The Saga collection version was based on the Special Edition 500th Figure Darth Vader in meditation chamber.

And it's amusing that is the 500th release of this version.

Isn't the 500th version the last one put out with swivel elbows before they switched to the ball joint?

Michael_Knight · Oct 25, 2011

Only five hundred so far? Seemed like more to me.

GNT · Nov 15, 2011

A clearer carded shot can be found here. Interesting idea for a pack but nothing that grabs my attention and screams to buy it.

trandoshanhunter · Nov 16, 2011

Why does this have to pegwarm?!?!?!? :hopelessness:

AaylaSecurasMan · Feb 2, 2012

Found these today at Target. $15 for a couple of repacks = EZ Pass B)

Revanfan1 · Feb 4, 2012

So these are Target exclusives?

Yes.......

Revanfan1 · Feb 4, 2012

Okay, I was under the impression they were TRU, like those Anakin/Vader, Grievous/Grievous, Boba/Boba packs.

tauntaunweequay · Feb 4, 2012

That's some exclusive, huh? Target probably feels like the kid in gym class who got picked last for Dodgeball.

The should feel like the kid who got picked to BE the dodgeball. :whistling:

AaylaSecurasMan · Mar 8, 2012

As expected, these are piling up at my local Targets, I can see these going down to $4.50 or so.

OdinsDad · Jan 18, 2014

It took almost another year and a half, but yeah, these are 4.50 now.

did it out of boredom

edit:

looked up what exact figures these were, returning them now

only Sidious looks worth keeping.

Mike_S · Jan 19, 2014

According to Hasbro Australia in late 2013, these are supposed to turn up at Myer.
It's almost at the end of January 2014 and I haven't seen hide nor hair of this set.

AaylaSecurasMan · Jun 4, 2015

$11.23 "on clearance" at BBTS. Really?
