-Perhaps we could start a BAD tournament the likes of which was done for Cantina denizens and skiff guards? (And, Rune_Haako, Kalani would also be a great choice for a BAD)

You mean like.. ROBOT WARS?

From the ARC 170 Elite Squadron Battle Pack, this is the "Droid With No Name". Subtle differences, but Hasbro have done worse on purpose.

His name would B R4-C7 :whistling:

[Blitzkriegtrench]

Well un42nately, I can't edit my above posting:

I would like to see previously released Astrodroids redone using the B.A.D. format :
Screen accurate Astrodroid liveries please
Any non-R4-G9 based R2/R4 unit
Any non-B.A.D. based R3 unit
Any non-B.A.D. based R4 unit
Any non-B.A.D. based R5 unit
Xcept the oddball versions like Silver R2-D2 & Pertwee err-pewter R2-D2 & silver R2-D2
These can be knocked out in about a baker's dozen of 4 packs 2 packs a quarter for about a year and 1/2 o-o

I would like to see new & previously unreleased Astrodroids as pack-ins :awesome:

Not at all correct, the droid from the ARC-170 BP is not unnamed. It's the R2-C4 R4-C7 - Wookieepedia, the Star Wars Wiki

So, not the same droid... but thanks.

meant R4-C7, typo

 

[Masterfett]

I think Hasbro meant they had no plans of animated style Droids, doesn't mean they couldn't do them realistic.

 

[ZX3]

How about Z-X3?

 

[Hockey_History]

Z-X3 would be perfect for this line!

OK. Adam Pawlus needs to update his blog then.

400? Really? Different strokes for different folks I guess.

Oh wait.. he did.

 

[GAdmiralThrawn]

I'd love to see some of the droids from the Droids comic series. I'd also like to see I-5YQ from the EU.

 

[DarthJefe]

I-5YQ was done in the Walwart Droid Factory 2-packs.

I'd like to see a PK Worker droid, a Phase 2 Dark Trooper, CZ-3 with balljoint shoulders, a new Probe Droid, a transforming Droideka (surely that can be done now), a good Buzz Droid, a new EV-9D9, and a new 8D8

 

[DarthPaxis]

Here's some I want:

HK-24
HK-51
Juggernaut war droid
C-21 Highsinger
IG-72
4A-7
8D8
EV-9D9
GE3 series protocol droid
BX series droid commando
T-series tactical droid

 

[Meesa_Mike]

Where's the love for CW Commando droids? I think they have a unique cool design and are not portrayed as moronic battle droids. The choices other members here have been stellar. I'm just surprised there is no interest in them.

 

[Blitzkriegtrench]

I have a few more Droid ideas:

P2 Astrodroid 2.3 m or apporx 7 1/2' tall

PG-5 Gunnery Droid 2.5 or approx 8 1/6' tall

(Both Slightly Larger than R1-G4)

PLNK-Series Power Droid 1.37 or approx 4 1/2' tall

(slightly larger than EG-6 Power Droid)

S19 Astromech 1m or approx. 3 1/3' tall

V1 Pilot Droid 1m or approx. 3 1/3' tall

V6 Pilot Droid 1m or approx. 3 1/3' tall

(All roughly the same size as R4-M9)

Spencer?:>}

 

[darthsatan]

That right there is some crazy-as-tro-droid-ness!!

 

[my_kind_of_scum]

Yeah. I have never seen most of these - some really odd designs. I do kind of like that v6 pilot droid, though. And I wouldn't mind a PLNK series droid, but don't see it working that well as a BAD.

I'd love a realistic Commando droid, it's where we could get the Citadel version with the shield.

 

[Blitzkriegtrench]

I have the same thoughts as I peruse this thread.

Some suggested Droids are just to difficult to achieve in the B.A.D. format such as:

Sith War Droid Mk. I

Sith War Droid Mk. II

Now feasibly the P2 & PG-5 could be done like the Dark Trooper Mk. III in a range of 2-pacs and the PLNK could be 3 to 5 pieces depending how U separate it.
Spencer?:}

 

[trandoshanhunter]

After seeing the new Clone Wars episode, I definitly want to see Super Tactical Droid Kalani as a BAD.

 

[Rune_Haako]

Yeah, especially since we most likely won't get an animated version of him.

 

[Oddball_Fett]

KOTOR T3-M4
KOTOR Battle Droid
KOTOR Protocol Droid
KOTOR HK-47. A more accurate one would be good but a re-release would be fine.
Bollux and Blue Max
Xim War Droid - but PLEASE make sure it's the one from the original Lost Legacy cover, not the lame one from the EU reference books which makes it look like a 1950's wind-up robot.

 

[DarthJace]

KOTOR T3-M4

Hooray Bollux. Just look at this for awesomeness, from the great Chris Trevas:

Huge fan of the old Lost Legacy cover, but I do like this design for Xim's war droid:

 

[GKinCT]

Some really cool droids in this thread, but the one I want to see most of all is T3-M4. That would make me a very happy collector.

 

[Neuroleptic]

One figure I DON'T want to see show up as a build a droid is EV-9D9.

That is one droid that deserves to be single carded with decent accessories, and so does 8D8. I really want both droids, but only if they are done very well. Neither has seen a decent update since the POTF.

 

[Oddball_Fett]

Hooray Bollux. Just look at this for awesomeness, from the great Chris Trevas:

Love that one. That's his second droid body.

Huge fan of the old Lost Legacy cover, but I do like this design for Xim's war droid:

Ick! It's like turning this:

into that:

[Trooper31]

Bollux and Blue Max would be cool.

 

[Meesa_Mike]

C-21 Highsinger would be a nice addition!

 

[Choi]

C-21 Highsinger would be a nice addition!

-Here's a picture

[GNT]

Huge yes to C-21 Highsinger for the BAD line.

 

[trandoshanhunter]

^ yuk



(101010)

For once I actually agree with you Satan.

 

[DarthJefe]

Bollux and T3-M4 have to happen. There's no excuse anymore. I wouldn't mind a Betty Droid or the red TC droid we saw a couple years ago, either. Other ideas:

GH-7 Medical droid and the Midwife droid from Polis Massa.
Vuffi Raa
AV-6R7
Leebo
Dark Trooper Phase II
Guri
Juggernaut War Droid
PK Worker Droid
Podrace Cam Droid
Cook Droid
Rickshaw Droid
the Window droids from AOTC
MD Droid
SE4 Servant Droid
M-3PO
TDL Nanny Droid
Binary Load Lifter
Red Terror
Unit Zed
8t88
Q9-X2
Gorm the Dissolver

 

[darthsatan]

Bollux

Creases me up every time I read this name! Evidently means something quite different in the UK....:wtf:

 

[my_kind_of_scum]

The cook droid could work as a bad, but how do you think they would handle the arms? Six with one figure or make you buy more figures to complete him?

Maybe include two arms per figure?

Same here.
I'm familiar with the meaning of the word, so it throws me off whenever I see it on the forums because I'm not sure why it's being used.
I'm especially wondering who or why anyone use it as a name for a Droid?

 

[darthsatan]

I always assume it's somebody describing the EU.....:whistling:

Well the creator of Bollux was Brian Daley an American who probably never knew of the U.K. connotation
And why is it when U put "The Dog's" in front of it, it has a different meaning :wtf:
Conversely "***" "rubber" and "knock-up" have different connotations here in da U.S. but U all know this already :grin:
How is American actress Fannie Flagg greeted across da pond :wub: Along with blokes named Lou :\
