Product Description Battle droids are the perfect soldiers in battle programmed to fight without hesitation and deployed in vast numbers that overwhelm opponents. Individually, though, their limited cognitive ability makes them vulnerable when up against the daring recklessness of Anakin Skywalker and the agile Ahsoka Tano; the two skilled Jedi can easily outwit and outmaneuver these mechanized fighters.
Step into The Clone Wars animated world with this articulated action figure based on the anime character. In full clone trooper armor, this figure comes with a backpack and a small blaster accessory, and a larger blaster that fires a projectile. Aim the projectile at your target and stage your own galactic battles.
Figure comes with small blaster, backpack, larger blaster and projectile.

| Customer Reviews: Good basic battle droid March 28, 2009 I AM YOUR FATHER This is a must have figure. Who else are the Jedi and clones going to slaughter anyway?
Hasbro is using a harder plastic than previous battle droids, so they've managed to make it look more minimal without sacrificing durability. There is better articulation in the shoulders, elbows and hips than older models and believe or not the head swivels on a ball joint. Its neck is very stiff, so you need to work it a little. The chest also rotates, which is nice. Unfortunately, the hands and knees dont bend. The blaster rifle isn't too tough, but my kids have a hard time getting it to hold rocket launcher.
The droids backpack sits well on the back and the antennae sits far away enough from the head so they dont hit, which is a problem with the legacy battle droid. Unfortunately, there's no slot to holster the blaster on the backpack.
It doesn't stand well unassisted so invest in those official Star Wars stands.
The biggest drawback is the cost. Its a good quality figure, but it takes a lot of abuse from the kids. We have two battle droids, and they get knocked down by the Republic forces as fast as we can set them up. An army of these things would be prohibitively expensive. The legacy two pack is a better bargain for the kids, even though they lack articulation. If you're looking for a collectable, this is your droid.

I AM YOUR FATHER
My son was thrilled. February 28, 2009 Dani (Harrisburg, PA United States) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This was bought as a Christmas present for my 5 year old son, who is a huge Star Wars fan. We call them "Roger, Roger" droids, because that's what they say in the cartoon. He loves them (I bought more than 1). I don't really see any educational value, but it does work his fine motor skills. They're not very durable, because legs and arms come off pretty easily, but if you've ever seen the cartoon when fighting the Jedi they don't hold up very well and my son thinks it great that they come apart so easily.
