Sideshow Teases 1:6 Scale Darth Vader

Sideshow TESB Darth Vader TeaserIt’s been rumored that Sideshow was working on a 1:6 scale Darth Vader from his Return of the Jedi appearance, but today, as part of the 2012 Spooktacular event, they released a teaser image for Vader based on The Empire Strikes Back.

According to the tease, he’ll be up for pre-order “in the near future.”  So, what does that mean for his ROTJ appearance with removable helmet?  Will this figure include a partially removable helmet?  Sideshow is calling the release “Deluxe,” so maybe there will be a lot of bells and whistles to the release.  More info as it’s unveiled.
