Sideshow 1/6 Imperial Probe Droid

[marker2037]

Just finished setting it up and I'm completely in love with it. First off, I wasn't expecting it to be so big so that was a pleasant surprise. I did order a clear rod for it, but it's back in the states so I won't have it for a few months, but I can live with the black rod until then. The light and sound is so cool and the engineering into all the movable parts is very well done sideshow. I really like the weathering too. It looks better in person.

I thought it was far better in hand than the pictures showed, also I was pleased with the sound effect..., to be honest though there's nothing I don't like about this figure.

So how many other people's Probe's legs split at the top when inserting them into the holes? Expensive, cheap *** ****!

 

[marker2037]

Not mine

 

[SilentSurfer]

Easily fixed with glue, but two of mine split. Did anybody notice that Sideshow swapped two of the smaller leg positions, and it's not correctable because the holes are unique? Lame.

A drill bit is like an eraser for unique holes.

You shouldn't need a drill.

 

[kevb0977]

Nope, mine didn't split at all..., maybe there was a bad batch?

No, but the guy that wanted to have a class action was chased off the forum, so what is man to do?

I know what you mean, I do a lot of work myself on my toys. But you shouldn't have to fix something. Or be easy going about it.
Not with the price of these things.

My one did but I fixed it easily with a bit of glue.

No issues on mine

Mine was all good as well... and of recent purchases the Probe Droid is one of the more fun ones.

So where does one order the clear rods, I can't recall if there was a thread or if it was something you order from a store

I am looking for a clear rod for mine as well...where is the best place to get one.

 

[marker2037]

eBay. There is a seller who sells 5 packs for like 10 bucks

Yep, that's how I got mine... I might still have his ebay name if anyone needs it.

 

[galactiboy]

Sure, that'd be great DM.

Or if anyone isn't hoarding all 5 of the rods I'd be happy to buy on off of them

 

[Reefer Shark]

I have that ebay link on my computer at home, will post it later if no one else has by then (still need to order my rods too)

oh by the way, my legs didn't crack either, everything was pretty perfect for the most part (just had one loose part, wrapped a little piece of tape around the post to make it snug)

 

[Fremen]

I still need to get this.

Yes, yes you do. And so does every other Star Wars fan who has yet to snag one of these.
