I honestly am no interested in the SBD... didn't really care for the design and they kind of sucked on screen
But; I imagine as long as they are not too top-heavy they will be another well done figure.

As far as "iconic", I think The Phantom Menace was the best designed of the prequels. I think Doug Chiang did a fantastic job and his paintings are gorgeous. He really tried to do to Ep1 what Ralph McQuarrie did for the originals.
Then he had a smaller role in Ep2 and was off Ep3. And that's when you get an assortment of random, sometimes clumsy and less interesting designs.

Dunno why Doug left before the show's over. But at the end, it was Lucas who directed the artist and approved what he wants whatever to look like.

Yeah, I was surprised (like with a handful of Hasbro figures) how good it looked with a repaint. I know Dorgmal did one that was impressive and I think even had a few deco variations.

Just watch - Sideshow will release theirs and we'll change our minds about wanting one.
You callin' me wishy-washy?

If you had told me a year ago that I'd end up with battle droids in my collection, I would've told you no way!
And yes, you're wishy-washy.

Well, yeah, I am...If there's one rule I try to stick to it's no PT. That being said I was tempted by these when the first photos hit. I then ate some of Pixletwin's tapioca pudding and came to my senses.

Well, that'll do it to ya'!
But I was the same way; as soon as I saw the preview pics, I know I was going to order them. I'm totally glad I did. No pudding for me.

Same here... I actually had most of my PT figures up for sale, but after seeing the droids and then Grievous I ended up keeping all of them
Although I am sticking to a movie-only collection... so no EU or CW figures.

Nah, I did venture into the CW with the Kenobi and Anakin, but now I've sold both off and I'm purely about the films

I wanted these guys a few years ago but now with so many clones I don't know if I can get another set of colored figures. I might pick up a yellow and red one in time.
I totally understand these being sold as a 2 pack, but I'd personally only like 1 to pose with my Captain Rex. I'm hoping somewhere like Toy Anxiety parts them out, or that I can find someone to split a pack. Maybe Sideshow will release singles in the future.
