New Darth Vader pic?????

ok some of you people might have noticed the front page of SW.com 2day and it shows a pic of Darth Vader that i and many other people have never seen b4 is it possible SW.com gave us a sneak peek because from 1 year from now SW ep3 will be released in the theaters?it might be possible 😕 (already been asking some real SW experst if this possibly could be the new darth vader many said 2 me its very likely it could be 😄 well ofcourse i am not gonna say this is the new Dvader 100% sure but it is a possibelty you decide 4 yourselfs 👆 (i still havent found any1 who saw in past times this pic b4 so this is looking hopefull)

Could really be EpIII Vader as he wasn't on that kind of location in the OT 😄

This has to be new, I've never seen it before.

here are some arguments of why this veryy possibly could be the ep3 Darth Vader:

Haydens arms,although he has bulked up,are not as "thick" as Prowse's were. The arms are too thin to be OT Vader.(gloves look to big and arms 2 thin,hayden does have thin arms not as nearly as big as prowse were)

There is what apears 2 be on the left side of the pic a vertical arm?

The chestplate looks different then from the OT.(looks like new 1)

The background is nothing Vader has been at ever before.

episode3 and production seem to relate that this possibly could be an Ep3 image.

This could possibly be our *first* look at Vader???

I think this is a picture of the new Vader. I was hoping that there would be someone in the costume who would fill it out in the way that Prowse did in the OT. Prowse lifted weights, was a big guy, and created a big menacing form in Darth Vader. Upon looking at this picture, I get the impression that I'm viewing Darth "Crack Whore" Vader.

Seriously, though, if you want to compare this picture with the original Vader, I am attaching some pics for reference.

and this one:

and then this one:

Here's one:

Notice how much more "filled out" the arms are in the OT Vader than Hayden's Vader arms are. The gauntlet is actually filled out more as well. Honestly, if this is the way Hayden is going to look in the Vader costume, then I would REALLY like to see someone else in the costume.

Granted, the EIII Vader pic is taken at a strange angle, and Vader seems to be hobbling along in a "LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE TO ME" sort of way, with both arms outstretched.

Still, I have to say I don't like it.

Any other opinions?

Well, the picture's got me convinced, though his arms do look really scrawny compared to his bulky shoulders, but I'm sure they had this in mind. I'm even more sure that it will look better in the theater. 🙂

personally my view is that ive never seen Vader in that pose before. The only time ive ever see him reach out like that is the ESB whern he tries to convince Luke over the Bespin shaft that he is his father.

It looks new to me as well.

I also think that they made knew the arms were gonna be scrawnier as well...he couldn't just magically get buff once he has the suit on, Vader probably gets buff as the years go by, or he gets upgrades later on.

It looks pretty convincing to me.

That helmet looks very similar to the pics of the new helmet posted here.

Maybe both arms are robotic and they're just more like 3PO's under his sleeves coz that's the only technology they have. Look at how skeletal Anakins new hand was.

Looks convincing to me as well, but needs a little work on the arms.

sorry for maybe a disapoitment but it is possible that the pic that was shown on the front page of SW.com is probably some old marketing pic that wasnt released yet because the pic i posted below has a lot of simmilarities and this 1 below is a old pic (i was told) it even has fox video written on the pic and when you look closely it has some letters written on the back probably from a mag or something similar 🙁

I'm relieved.

he looks horrible in that 😬

At least we'll get to see the real thing this Sept, his Episode 3 look on the OT DVD's.

Yep looks like exact same costume as in that Fox Video....

it say's e.s.b but to me it looks new. 😈
