Oh yes! Vader is an absolute must have for me. I really wasn't a fan of his Mattel retro so I'm hoping this one's gonna knock it out of the park. And they're doing Galoobs!!! Bravo! I think its fairly safe to say epics will be ALOT better than mattels I totally agree. I cannot wait.

Epic, if you make a Vader Loob then I'll love you long time.
A Bulldogs set of Lubes would be epic, pun intended.

the Chella mould for Haystacks was good, imagine what the Vader will look like with Epic's stamp on it!
now we just need 3poajamie to get on at Luke to make a Super Invader figure too!

now Harley, Vader and Super Invader... that would be an awesome wave in itself!! (but could Epic get to do both a King Harley, and a suited manager Harley?)

The Epic Toys IG post says that the main 4 pre-orders will be available to purchase May 2024. They haven't been listed yet, right? I tried looking and didn't see anything.

Epic is just that…Epic! They are knocking it out of the park. That Bobby Heenan is amazing. I can’t wait to see Vader. No offence to Mattel, but Epic will make a better one!

The Epic team really did an absolutely amazing job with this! Fantastic and professional looking ad that hits the right notes of nostalgia, wonderful surprise announcements, and good artwork.
Have to get both Heenan figures as well as the Vader figures…sounds like a good candidate for the Deluxe Edition series!
It’s great to get confirmation on the Loobs line! Vader is a must for me. It will be interesting to see who else will end up in that style and what the price point will be for them.

Epic is really turning the tide and becoming the gold standard of retros. I've got PoP and Bulldogs and they are SOLID figures that blend well with the 'bros. Boris Zukov looks like another winner. Eddie is great but personally not the era for my retro collecting. Love what you guys are doing! Can't wait for Dr. Death!!!

Great stuff. I didn’t expect the Galoobs but now the prospect of a Galoob style Big Van Vader, oh man
Are Onita and Boris sharing a torso mold?
