Re: 1/6th Scale Battle Droid

Wow, did these come out better than I would have ever thought. I had no inclination to purchase these....but just pulled the trigger on the EX.

Damn you SSC!!!

Does anyone recognize the environment they are standing on in picture 7 (couldn't snag a good picture of it), or is it possibly an upcoming item?

Isn't it the Reactor Station Alpha?

SSC has a Shop-Vac attached to my wallet this year.

I just handed them mine at comic-con in 2005.

The wallet I can kinda deal with..the rapidly running out of space is another problem.

Yep...looks like it. I haven't been buying the environments lately and didn't see that when I pulled up that page. Thanks.

Re: 1/6th Scale Battle Droid

Trying to keep my pre-orders at a minimum, but just couldn't pass up on this set. EX ordered!

I have the Power of the Force STAP with battle droid set by Hasbro/Kenner I picked up when first released.Would be cool if they made a STAP to go with it. It would be HUGE if they did.

Good thing I keep missing out. At least I still have somewhat of a chance to keep mine (glass half full statement ).

Buy a bigger house.

Me, I'm slowly converting my kids room into a SSC room. I keep telling my wife that the 1/6 figures are for him when he's older.

Hope she doesn't call me on my bluff someday.

That is reactor room environment that Sideshow came out with last year.

Re: 1/6th Scale Battle Droid

These are awesome, but I don't get the exclusive. If there was something different about the sculpt then I'd be interested, but I'm not going to care whether the pack says 1138 or 8675309. I'll definately be grabbing a set or 2 from Alterego or elsewhere. Good price, btw. Bless you SSC for throwing probably the biggest TPM fan on the board a bone.

We just bought a new house 4 years ago. And I had the library turned into my room. I'm running out of space already.

Those pics are almost two years old now and I've added so much more...maybe it would be better to just buy a house for all the collectibles.

It does seem to be one that only the most hardcore geeks that like the easter eggs in the movies (like me) would be interested in...but I am also thinking that it will be cool just to be able to have a third variation of the Droids to display.

Re: 1/6th Scale Battle Droid

Ex ordered, army building with these could get out of hand fast...must resist buying too many.

Re: 1/6th Scale Battle Droid

Its hardly a variation, imo. Its just a tad different paint...on its back! You won't see it unless you're looking for it. I'm ordering my 2, then waiting for the inevitable repaints.

Probably will pass on the AOTC scheme though.

A better ex would have been some busted up parts.

I'll handle it like the Clones. Just make sure to get paint variations. Different weapons unless they come with a different paint apps won't likely happen.

Great price on these guys.

Thanks..but it started SW and LOTR and has spread into some Iron Man and Hot Toys Batman.
