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

[JonEl]

mine should be shipping today, can't wait to get these guys, i do need to start planning my shelf situation.
Right now I have two droid shelfs
Shelf 1: OOM-9, Battle Droid and STAP, Sidious Holo-walker
Shelf 2: Battle Droid 2-pack, Repainted Hasbro Super Battle Droid
Im thinking I can add the Security Droids to either, possibly shifting or leaving the Regular 2-pack, however once the Genosis Droids are released, Ill need to shift all Tan droids together and have this outcome:
Shelf 1: OOM-9, Battle Droid 2-pack, Security Droid 2-pack, Battle Droid and STAP, Sidious Holo-walker
Shelf 2: Genosis Droid Commander, Dooku Hologram, Genosis Battle Droid 2-pack, Repainted Hasbro Super Battle Droid

Also, My Grevious is up on my seperatist shelf with Dooku(Custom) and Ventress.

You might want to pull those necks a bit more so they are fully extended and allow for more accurate head poses. Other than that, thay look excellent.

 

[Mazukou]

Oh yeah.. those necks do look a little short.. can they extend even further?

 

[Tee-Kay]

Yes. From the pic, i would say they are only half way through.

 

[jedibear]

Great shots, dartball... Looking forward to my set to flank the General.... Very cool!

 

[DarthTrafford]

The security droids are being released already?
The SSC site says expected in June.
Are they early?

 

[Tee-Kay]

Looks like they got a split shipment early.

 

[jedibear]

Mine arrived today....here's a quick shot of one of them giving a STAP Rider a security briefing....

 

[imaI2EAPEi2]

are these the ones that come with the hologram of darth tyranus?

 

[jedibear]

No...those are being released later in the year....

 

[imaI2EAPEi2]

No...those are being released later in the year....

kk thanks^

 

[DarthTrafford]

I wonder if I order them will they ship right away?

 

[Tee-Kay]

You'd better contact Sideshow prior to putting your order in. Even if status says it's in-stock, they might be busy processing the pre-orders right now.

 

[jedibear]

"Roger, roger!"

Do not pick up the security battle droids. The paint job is shoddy and horrible. The veteran security droid looks decent though but the clean one is horrendous. You can see visible paint streaks everywhere, especially the face. I called sideshow to see what was going on. All I got in response was "it's hand painted so it's suppose to be like that" bulls hit. the veteran looks just fine and past droid have looked great. This is pretty sad sideshow

 

[jedibear]

Sorry you are disappointed...
I think they look great and was glad to add them to the collection'

To each their own, I guess...

 

[Tee-Kay]

Yeah, production pieces, even though hand painted, will always look weaker than the proto. If those Security battle droïds look as good in hand as previously released infantry droïds, i'll be more than happy with them.

 

[jedibear]

Clanker confrontation....

 

[JonEl]

I received mine, no complaints on the paint application. I will say I prefer the veteran over the rookie clanker.

No backpack antennas that would rust. I like
