Darth Vader is one of the most iconic and revered villains in film, let alone geek culture, but Hot Toys Cosbaby version makes it hard to take him seriously as a threat.

That doesn’t mean he isn’t adorable and worthy of a place on your shelf, it just means his intimidation factor is greatly diminished, but let’s just keep that between us. Hot Toys previously revealed a regular version of Vader, but now they’ve introduced two special edition variants of the Star Wars villain, which includes a glow in the dark version and a translucent holographic version.
Both stand at 11 inches tall and come with bobble heads. The holographic version features a blue and purple tint, in line with how various holograms appear in the film, while the glow in the dark features a bluish green glow when under complete darkness, including its base.
No price has been announced yet, but the two special editions are targeting a quarter 4 2016 to quarter 1 of 2017 release timeframe.
Now all you need is an Obi-Wan and you can have a hologram battle, and hologram Tupac can be the special guest referee! Okay, that sounds like a fever dream and probably does require medical attention.
You can view more photos of both figures in the gallery. If you fancy yourself a Vader fan, you can also check out Hot Toys newly debuted Vader figure from the upcoming Rogue One: A Star Wars Story here.
