He says he's not dead

I enjoy Star Wars almost as much as GI Joe. The Star Wars figures have never had as much articulation as other current Hasbro lines (with the exception of wave 2 of the Vintage collection.... kick ass). So I took a Saga Vader and IG Destro and made my Ultimate Vader. No paint was used on this, I only used a black sharpie to color in Destro's gold neck. I also swithced the mismatched IG Destro's legs so they would be uniform. The only thing I have not done is give Vader shoulder pads. I might just leave him as is.
Well Tankers speak up Good? Bad? Suggestions? Edit: I know the Chest piece is not his actual one. I just got one in from a fellow tanker, thanks Konigstiger, and haven't put it on yet.

I used another Vader and IG Destro to make my Version II Vader. This time I used the original chest box plus fixed the belt. This version also features the old Anakin head rather than Dr. Rex Lewis head.

If it was not for the upper Destro legs I would not have known.

Looks pretty good. Try dremeling off the armor from a Vader figure's boots and attaching them to you custom.
