POTF Anakin Skywalker : old man in a robe

Anakin Skywalker. Darth Vader before, or after the suit. Now I understand he was a mail away, then part of the mythical POTF line but......
 
Seriously, its like someones Dad in a robe....
 

Cool, "weeeee" action......

 
Wheres a hug for Grandpa.....
 
 
On the right, awesomeness. On the left, his robe wearing butler.

 
"Back in the Old Republic.."
 
 
Vader strikes a menacing pose. Anakin looks like he needs a diaper change.
 

I know I'm beating this guy up a bit but C'MON...... a ghost with no accessories. Woo hoo. He doesn't even look like a ghost. He doesn't even exist anymore ! They couldn't have made a Moff Tarkin figure.....nope they made this. Wedge.....naw, make a figure representing a ghost that appears on screen for 5 seconds.
 
Kenner could have made a Lando in Han's clothes figure....... Now that would have been cool !!

  1. I never had this guy originally. I was sort of out of Star Wars by the time Jedi rolled around.

    1. So was I so that's probably the reason for my view on him. I got him later as a collector and am underwhelmed, he's pretty blah...

  2. Pretty un-exciting figure i suppose but one that needed to be made for the fans.
