While there is some talk about the Vader's Apprentice Stats, I wanted to bring up his pose.
Vader's Apprentice, Unleashed....

Vader's Apprentice, Redeemed...



Clearly VAR has a far better pose, while VAU's is quite boring. Now From your Opinion, which of the follow poses do you think would be the best?

1)

2)

3)

If you have any others not posted, please share if you feel they are good. Now the discussion on his pose.

VAR(Vader's Apprentice, Redeemed) has an amazing pose. Truly fierce, and yet simple. Looking as if he is about you make his opponent one with The Force.

Now VAU(Vader's Apprentice, Unleashed) has one of the most boring poses I've witnessed. Standing there, simple looking at you...OH NO, WATCH OUT, HE MAY STARE YOU TO DEATH! Merely standing, slightly hunched over, well maybe he is tired? I don't know whether to fight him or offer him a chair and some lemonade.

im making a custom of the apprentice (not yet completed) Ill try to get pics up as soon as possible. Of the pics posted, i think 3 would be best for a mini since 1 would look kinda strange if no one was in front of him

I think numbers 2 and 3 are already pretty similar to the pose that we got, it's just that his left hand is more down instead of up actually pushing something. I would have preferred his hand be up like he was in motion, but the way I see the sculpt we got is more of a brooding look. Like he's standing there glaring at his enemy, letting the anger build up inside. I LOVE the lightning aroud his right arm and the lightsaber blade, so no complaints there for me. I guess it could have been a little more dynamic, but it didn't bother me too much. Would be a pretty easy modification, I think.

idk.....I think that the VAU is a good pose. He has his lightsaber back and drawn ready to strike down with furious vengence!!!

also I think 1,2, and 3 are very simmilar poses all 3 have him holding the lightsaber upsidedown in his right hand. number one is cool because he has moved his right hand to use the force lightning, but he still has the saber ready to throw some beats on people if they want to cause trouble.

of the pictures you posted 2 is the coolest followed by 3.

I like his pose; it captures the image of a brooding character who's about to unleash hell in a force lightning storm that rivals Palps.

If all Jedi had diving or overhead striking poses then that would become boring.

As for improving the pose by altering it to one of the 3 listed below.....

I'd go #2 since it's very similar except for the push hand being up and slightly more menacing.

However different this may seem, #1 is the most fiercesome for me. Whether you can see any target or not (just as for the Emperor Palpatine or Count Dooku fig's) the pose and the expression are all business. Some Sith Lightning issuing would be the finishing touch.

Thanks for asking and keep us posted, please.

My 2 cents...

I like number 3....but i would like it better if it had maybe a little bit of force lightning coming out of his hand. But thats just me.

Yes, regardless of pose, lightning from the hand (as with Dooku and Palpi)
