Advise on a vintage Darth Vader 😊

[a banjom]

Hi,

I have a very clean Vader figure that I was given as a gift back in 2004. I was going through all my old Star Wars figures as I'm looking to sell them and found this one in there. He's lived his life in a sealed container since I got him in 2004.

I was hoping you experts could give me any information on him and current value? I am looking to sell him.

Cheers , Ben

Looks in really good condition if the saber is genuine the figure is worth about £15-£20

They were making reproductions even in the early 2000s so check the saber out

Thanks for the reply, I won't be retiring soon then?! I've seen these online for 150-200 , but tbh couldn't believe it myself so thought I'd ask the experts!

Anyway to tell if the sabre is fake?

I'd say it's worth £25-£35, so long as the saber is original and the cape has no splits at the armholes. Some info on sabers here... https://imperialgunnery.com/lightsabers.htm

Looks good. As above, if all original and no splits in the cape, I would say £35. The ones you are seeing for £150+ are either graded examples or from a completely deluded seller.

So many variants for Vader, collectors are going nuts for the lettered sabres these days as they were the early releases. If the Sabre genuine he's worth at least £30.
