Hasbro has reissued one of the Best figures of 2023 and that is none other then The Black Series 6-Inch 15: Darth Vader (Duel’s End). Originally in 2023 this was a Target Exclusive, but Hasbro decided to reissue it as a Main Line Release for late 2025.
I just received the Reissued 2025 Figure from Entertainment Earth and checked to see if Hasbro changed anything from the original 2023 release. First off you will notice that Hasbro changed the Box from the older side angle style Box to the current square style Box. Also the UPC was changed from 5 010996 211941 to 5 010996 366092.
As for any paint application changes, the most noticeable is Hasbro removed the Black Paint around his eye and the burnt flesh paint application on his head looks much better then before.
I have yet to open up the new 2025 reissue to see if the Helmet is glued on firmly or if it’s loose and can be easily removed like the 2023 release I received. I will check and see this weekend.
I have taken some boxed photos and added them to the Figure’s Page. Just scroll to the bottom to view the variations.
