Darth Vader Unpainted 4-up Hardcopy (460-013)
The unpainted hardcopy shown above was created at a 4:1 scale, meaning it is four times larger than its production counterpart. Sculpting a figure, particularly a Micro Collection figur of such diminutive size, at an increased scale beneficially enables the sculptor to add intricate detail; a vastly more challenging feat at a 1:1 scale. The "hands on hips" Darth Vader pose was included in the Bespin Freeze Chamber playset.

The Star Wars Collectors Archive is fortunate to possess the largest assortment of Micro Collection 4-ups found in any collecting resource. Bespin Freeze Chamber playset 4-ups featured on the site include:
