Hot Toys - 1/6 Episode II AOTC - Super Battle Droid

yeah,Oz has laws against it now,sigh

Strange ban. But I guess it will help a micro micro percentage of accidents/deaths from happening.

My C-3PO lost his batteries along the way from China. Someone in down under sneakily removed them.

Ordered my SBD last week just to pair with a battle droid and dooku. Has to be done.

Good, will make for a neat display.

Wow, this guy has no buzz at all. Either that or 1:6 Star Wars has no buzz at all. One review and not even much on Facebook or here about it. He is either going waitlist soon because nobody preordered or he will sit and join lando, Rex, and the mandalorian figures for eternity, as they gather dust in warehouses around the world. Part of me says cancel and wait for steep discounts next Halloween or just keep it and enjoy it when he ships.

Could be or could not be the case. Don’t let it slip of you want it.

 

[Freakazoid!]

The gold head and lack of metallic blue top on the same is just confusing. Looks really neat otherwise.

Idk I may cancel PO. Not really exciting enough to justify the price. Would prefer some more B1s or perhaps one of these…

 

[SOU7567]

I like it and the more I see of it I think I'll be good with just one, a nice piece for the droid army, but doesn't really have much presence like the B1s or a Droideka would have.

 

[Jammyjr]

Got mine yesterday. A little bit underwhelming but he does add the presence I was looking for with Dooku and Battle Droid so I can’t complain really.

I ordered one from my local comic shop with a $15 coupon so I save on that, tax, and shipping as opposed to ss. Hopefully it comes in soon. Surprised this one seems destined for in stock forever status. Seems like a nice figure. Glad i decided to just get one.

I keep my figures one per shelf. I do want to own this piece but I cannot justify the price ($350 CAN). I would rather spend that on a figure with a human likeness. With only AOTC Anakin on preorder for now. I guess it will wait to see what Inart has for future releases.

No Han?

Neat review by the he-who-must-not-be-named.

Two on order. No clue how to display them properly. Probably together with Dooku. The PT collection is harder to combine than OT figures.
ANH stormies together with Endor Luke or Vader or even Palps would be no strange, but pairing a BD with Maul or even Grievous would look odd. Or AOTC Anakin/Padmé with any ROTS trooper.

Lacking enthusiasm for this figure everywhere. Probably SSC´s next shelfwarmer. Doesn't bode well for any PT droid design. Bye bye droideka...

I’m going to eventually get this but I’m not chomping at the bit like I am for Kenobi Vader or AOTC Anakin. I think he’s one of those figures that will look good paired with a Battle Droid on a Geonosis arena stand or something like that.

It’s a good looking figure just not a “must have right now” kinda thing.

 

[DarkChocobi]

Must have for me, for now two it is.

Agreed. The Super Battle Droid is a figure I want eventually but there are other figures releasing that I want more. Plus to me it’s more of a filler character. I prefer the more standard or Geonosis Battle Droid designs.

 

[Brokenhandpuppet]

I'm getting 1 to go with my one geonosis battle droid. Hoping another run of battle droids in the TPM/ROTS color way and will get a few of those. A second super BD if they turn into shelf warmers. 1 being decimated by clones or Jedi and one looking cool.

 

[sithocan]

We need droidekas.

Just got the SS e-mail that this guy, Commander Fox and Battinson are charging on Wednesday...

Too much at once, going to at least call Sideshow tomorrow and ask to put SBD on a payment plan.

Battinson has been paid off for almost half a year but Fox, Vader, Padme, SBD is a bit much on the wallet at once.
