The suit symbolically represents Anakin’s sealed fate, he doesn’t truly become Vader until the suit. There’s countless lore going into all this. Why would the ultimate version of Vader not be him in his suit? The current one in game is the RotJ version, they can make the GL variant his Rogue One/Rebels/ANH version with red lenses.

But I agree a Hayden Vader should be in the game. Just not as a GL. Let him be the JKL equivalent. Then release the suited GL Vader as an Empire GL.

Lord Vader as Hayden Vader it's making more sense, but I do understand that the most inconic Vader is the suited one. I'm just hopping his Ultimate will be like SEE or JML, where he "transforms", into the suit. That would be nice, thematical, and apropiate. But we will never know until the release.

Well, the most powerful SWGOH Luke is grumpy old man Luke, where I would have much preferred a GL jedi knight Luke myself. Or rebel pilot Luke. Both much more iconic to star wars in my opinion. But grumpy high belt, never uses his lightsaber Luke is the GL.

He becomes Vader when he was given the name. The rest is semantics. At least when it comes to this game.

Besides, one could argue that the versions of Luke and Palp weren't the most iconic versions, and yet here we are.

Oh and neither GG or Dooku have enough character change to warrant another version of them, not to mention GL.
