I'm with you, not digging that Utapau at all. The clear color way was sick but not that one.. the Vader on the other hand HOLY SHIP! I want that bad.

For the preorder I feel you on that. They tend to hit the market starting at a little under msrp. If it was a 300 run or lower that would be a different story.

The Holo Vader is gonna look perfect next to the infrared Vader. Gonna be a nice glittery contrast.

It looks like the holo vader is up on ebay for $69.99/free shipping, I think that may be as low as he gets. It looks like the other colorways are holding value really well unlike most other Hikari. I think he's just too popular of a character, haha.

Tell me about it... I've been lurking online for weeks and most just aren't budging. The best chances we have at cheap star wars Hikari is hot topic getting a bunch of these during hot cash.

I really hate how E.E. gives you free shipping on $79 but then adds it back on at checkout...it is $6.20 higher than Gemini with priority shipping.

I would like the Vader much better without the glitter. The blue holographic looks awesome! For me the glitter reminds me of that school project you did in elementary school when you used your paste and spriknkled glidder all over. I still may buy it to put next to the Infared Vader.

For those of you with the Lootcrate Storm Trooper, it looks like the Holo Vader has the same reflective strips in the vinyl as well.
