Variation Information:

Darth Vader has been cast in six primary and secondary colors and then randomly selected and assembled together, but without reusing the same color for more than one body part. The lightsaber color matches one of the parts, but not the arm in which it's placed. There are potentially 3,600 different permutations (variations) to collect of this figure, but impossible to know if all 3,600 exist as there could be repeated arrangements. The basic rules for assembling the figure:

  • Each Darth Vader (Prototype Edition) has eight parts. These include a head, a left arm, a right arm, a torso, a left leg, a right leg, a lightsaber, and a cape.

  • Body parts don’t repeat colors.

  • The lightsaber repeats a body part color, but NOT the color of the arm in which it is placed. So, if the figure has a red lightsaber, it will NOT be in a red arm.

  • The cape is always black. 

The logical calculation for determining the number of arrangement of this figure is 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1 x 5 x 1 = 3600.
