DARTH VADER I

CODE: sw004 SET/S: 3340, 7150, 7152, 7200, 10123

Complete with scarred face under it's brilliantly detailed helmet. No wonder this has probably appeared in so many sets, but what the hey, it's Darth!!!

DARTH VADER II

CODE: sw004a SET/S: 7262

This is what appears to be a rarer version of the one above, you'll note in the inset (when expanded) that whilst the face remains the same the head tone is lighter.

DARTH VADER III

CODE: sw117 SET/S: 7263

This is quite rare and has the light-up sabre fixed into place. Also check the head has the double sided scars on the head like the one below but without eyebrows.

On a side note about the cape with this version, yes it looks tatty, I've seen several of these figs and the cape looks roughly the same and the material is thicker than the standard issue.

DARTH VADER IV

CODE: sw123 SET/S: 7264, 6211

Exactly the same as above, you find that this has scarring both sides of the face.

DARTH VADER V

CODE: sw214 SET/S: 7264

Again from the Inspection set, but this variant this time appears with eyebrows.

DARTH VADER VI

CODE: sw232 SET/S: 10188, 8017

From the Death Star play set, here we're treated to a new torso design and a scarred head, there's hints of red in it. Over all a great progression in design for this fig.

DARTH VADER VII

CODE: sw109 SET/S: 10188

A variant for the above, both have the same features but this has eyebrows. I've also noticed this has a more solid gray colour to the torso design, whilst the previous version has a more metallic silver finish to the pattern.

DARTH VADER VIII

CODE: sw277 SET/S: 10212-1, 7965

The inconsistency continues with this variant of the above variant, Eyebrows continue. but this time Lord Vader has the WDP treatment. Released with the UCS Imperial Shuttle I'm kind of a loss here, I got this several months ago prior to the release of this set on eBay... Hmm, strange it was previously listed as not belonging to a set.
