Sideshow 1/6 R5-D4

[Chakaman]

But man, this is fun today.

It really is.

Instant buy for me.

 

[Natedog]

But does he have a blow off top and smoke effects?

EU never fails to..... fail.

I read this and had to run to the bathroom in order to puke. "Skippy". LOL, so lame.

And people wonder why canon fans despise EU. Good Lord.

In the in-universe article Droids, Technology and the Force: A Clash of Phenomena, the legend of Skippy the Jedi Droid is mentioned. This means that while this Tales story is not wholly canon, the legend of Skippy does exist.

Skippy Lives!

I heard R5 and the Jawas were actually on display at Celebration, so.... Where are the pics?! LOL.

 

[XxStrait-EdgexX]

There's pics of both in the jawa thread

 

[SithThundercracker]

Skippy! I love when I read some weird EU stuff, then I forget it, and then it comes out again weird (and funny) like the first time. I love SW.

 

[GeneralZodLives]

Definitely getting this one.

 

[TK0083]

and here we......GO!!!!!!

 

[sithlord13]

Awesome. But in this current market it needs to be better price Than r2

 

[Joe Prince]

I like it but..may wait for Koto 1/10th instead.

Well if nothing else there should be far fewer quality control issues, since there won't be all those extra panels on the dome that can break or malfunction.

And does R5 light up at all? I don't remember ever seeing any on him.

 

[Puay]

YESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Puay]

Can he goes up in flame?!

Looking at these it's the first time I've noticed the 'crystal' patterns below his head.

Beautiful.

Now I just need a Power Droid.

 

[Misterscruff]

Was hoping this would follow R2 and I'll be ordering this one, definitely. My favourite astromech as a kid, purely because I liked the red colouring.

Yes! Power Droid is a must-have.

How many return requests for bad motivators will be made to sideshow? And will they refund or send me a R2 unit instead
