Darth Vader kitbash
This is the Empire Strikes Back body, specifically from the Masters of Evil 3-pack, which I have added the helmet and shoulder pads from the 1:12 scale Bandai model kit and the cape from the original Black Series Vader (the one with the sad looking helmet), and I also trimmed the robes a little bit
The neck connection for the head had to be modified to fit the figure’s neck, and to attach the shoulder pads, I lifted the chest armor from the figure, dremeled the inside of the shoulder pad, glued a strip of faux leather to the shoulder pad, and attached that to the chest armor
Since the cape already had a sewn edge, I simply cut a hole in that edge, fed some wire that I cut to size into it so it filled the edge, and affixed it to the chest armor with a couple dabs of hot glue
