Hasbro's C-3PX Build a figure sets

[Memnoch]

I have the Han Hoth and let me tell you, it's fantastic. Anyone want the C-3PX leg?

C-3px was a 3p0 Series Protocal Droid from the Old droids comics in the mid 80's he was a Protocal droid Rebuilt as a Gladiator for the star wars equilivant of "robot death-match" or "battle bots". Thing is, he, like all droids, went a LONG time without a memory wipe, and developed a personality, so he took off. Ends up as an assassin droid. it was a One-off, kinda goofy story, but the design was very cool. And yes, He DID have all those built-in weapons, they were just able to hide inside his body, like Robocops gun. be nice if the lasers were removeable, but we all know how hasbro is......

And yes, Luke looks like ass, but as All I'm gonna keep from these sets are the droids, i could care less. Gonna give the rest of them, ( luke included) to my cousin. Gives him some guys for his imperial troops to beat up.

C-3PX!? seriously, who writes this stuff?

What's next? R2-DTerminator?

Hey it was an OLD comic, like 1988-1990 when MOST of the Star wars comics were garbage. the story was VERY campy, but the character was kinda neet

Just another stupid EU thing.

Did everyone forget that he's Darth Maul's personal assassin droid and technically his sidekick...

So Darth Maul's sidekick is a protocol driod on its period? DM just went down a notch in my book.

 

[Blackhole]

He wasn't on his period when he was Maul's sidekick...he was badass...

He went all wussy about 30 years later...

Please tell me you're joking. You're joking, right? NO??

... And people wonder why the EU is so quickly hated.

Wow.

Oh, I always thought those were pics of people that defended EU only to realize that EU, does in fact, suck.

True, but Darth Maul was kinda lame anyways.

Kinda like those recent Toyota Celica's that "looked" fast.

 

[Blackhole]

Well, I liked those Toyotas...if they're the ones I'm thinking of...

And I like the EU too...

Except for Jaxxon...

 

[Homer Simpson]

the head sculpt has to be a joke, right?

Nope. That is what Hasbro submitted to Lucasfilm, who thankfully rejected it, so Luke will come with the Vintage style x wing head

No, EFG, Like usual, you fail.

Bah, enough of that foolishness, here's a new type of foolishness, C3PX's wookiepedia entry.
