1/6th Scale Sideshow Battle Droids (Clean, Commander, Security, etc)

[Avfin]

Got my ship notice---Not sure if I want to keep

 

[shocktrooper_au]

sooner then I expected, but looking forward to having the clankers in the house

 

[galactiboy]

Yeah, not used to just getting a 7 day warning

Definitely excited about them though

 

[LOPIE]

Oooohhhhhhh yes can't wait.

 

[The Mike]

I didn't order these but I'm really anxious to see them in hand.

 

[toystales]

Roger Roger.... Processing begins on 6 January 2012.

 

[HPGR_Thrawn]

When they said Quarter 1, they meant it!

Ready to have these guys for my clones to trash.

Now we need that General Grevious figure for the droids to flank.

 

[ezewok]

the super battle droids cant be far behind.

 

[jedibear]

Where's Grievous?

 

[Glennfett]

Where's Grievous?

"hiding...in the Utapau system"


seriously but JB....i was hoping his PO would come up in Sideshows 12 days of Xmas....
but,for all i care they can take as long as they want.He MUST be prefect.
So many great SW figures coming this yr...HT Luke,IG 88,Boba Fett,Bacara,GG.. etc etc...and that is only the 1st half of this yr.

 

[jedibear]

LOL

I agree...some cool stuff coming out (heck, some cool stuff just came out!) and when Grievous is finally announced and PPO'd, I hope he's as awesome as that proto that was on display at SDCC last summer...

In the meantime, have any early shots of the battle droids popped up from any far-east early appearances yet? Can't wait to see these guys...

 

[toystales]

When Grievous finally arrives, I have no doubt that he will furiously "slash" away at our wallets with all four light sabers in his hands.

"Wallet or not, you do realize you are doomed!" Heh heh spin on quote. Anyway, GG should be awesome. Though maybe they're holding him back for more droids. I wonder though, is there any chance for the Magnaguard?

I'd say that Magnaguards are almost certainly in the pipe (though that's sheer speculation). They featured prominently enough in virtually every scene with Grievous in ROTS that many collectors would want a couple to flank their Grievous figures in a display. Hell, they were based on concept art for Grievous himself, so they are a significant part of SW lore. So far as unproduced PT/Clone Wars droids go, I'd like to see SS announce Super BDs, then Magnaguards, then Commando droids - a welcome addition to the SW universe from the CW realm.

I really hope with the Battle droids and Grievous now coming that it paves the way for Sideshow to do some Seppo Leaders.
I would love a Nute Gunray,Poggle,San Hill etc etc...

Agreed. Nute is sorely missed in the 1/6th line of SW figures for sure!

Anyone know what these are made of? Hopefully out of hard plastic.

That is my assumption, but I can't recall getting an official word.

I think they might be made out of fondant - not very durable, but, oh-so-tasty!

Fondant taste like wet dog, buttercream all the way.
