HAHAHAHA! 
I'm only picking up a select few SW figures, not like my Hot Toys and Marvel addictions...hopefully...
I've always loved the movies (IV, V, and VI) and still enjoyed I, II, and III even though they are lacking in many areas...so I figured I'd grab my favorite characters...
My issue is the lack of articulation some of them have. I want them to be more like MU figures but one of the Darth Mauls I picked up today (Saga Legends or something like that) had only hip and shoulder joints. The other has ball joint shoulders, ankles, and knees so I was happy with that. Just wish the hips were better.

Actually the Clone Wars R2 doesn't look all that cartoony compared to all the other CW figures. I have the Clone Wars R4-P17(Obi-Wan's droid) and it looks good sitting next to all my other Star Wars movie droids.
pictures??

OK here you go.
The brown one is R4-P17 with R2 and a couple Build-A-Droids with a few other figs for comparison between CW and Movie figs.
(Ok, I know the Obi-Wan in clone armor isn't a movie figure but I think he's cool.)

That R2 does look pretty good. Sorry to hear about his broken tread. How you liking our dry December?

Yeah man, A ton of great stuff in the SW line. I'll give you under 6 months to start collecting the 1/6th figures
Have fun

The weathers good, I'm glad it hasn't snowed at all this year.
Yes it is, in fact it's the first electronic one and I can't believe the batteries are still good.
I'll try to post some more pics of my movie figures later tonight, today is gonna be kinda busy.
I bought a bunch of figures today including the Jabba barge R2...wasnt digging the Saga Legends light up R2...the "head" just seemed off a bit in design and color...
I do like the Commemorative Blu Ray R2 with the chrome dome but I dont want the other figures in the pack unfortunately

These aren't great pics as it was awkward to get a good angle but hope it gives you an idea.
The cape was hand made by Dark Artist (Deniz) and is based on the design used by Worgar on his Garrindan.
I think its a great figure.
