I suppose this deserves it's own thread
. Mods, please move posts here for continuity


anyways, already being scalped for rediculous price and only a few hours old...(note this is a screenshot, not a link to list so hopefully, acceptable....)

likely get 2, 1 to keep carded for "easter". not a fan of the bunny ears (wait----could be used for a jaxxon custom..see below... maybe)
nor the alt colors- i do like the unique color shades though if it were 2 separate droids.

I will have to get several of these for my Droid Playboy mansion diorama.

And yes, Droid Playboy does exist…

What else would Pit Droids read while having a pit stop? 😁
 
I don't think I've ever asked, but what do you use to make your floors and walls? 3D printed or just random plastic?
They look really good.
 
Thank you. They are actually Ubiquitous diorama building sets by Nova. They released them several years back & then the pandemic hit & their production halted. They are now releasing them again. BigBadToyStore is their seller
in the US. Here is the page for their kits.

I currently have 2 of the UB-01 kits & 2 of the UB-EX kits. When they were initially released I missed the UB-01LS kit (includes LED lighting system) but they finally reissued them with BBTS having just received them this week. I had them pre-ordered FOR A WHILE. They shipped yesterday & should be here Friday.

A while back on their Instagram page Nova previewed some design work for part kits that they were going to make. They are straight up SW elements. Hopefully they still do now that they have things rolling again.

Disneystore.com will 100% be selling this figure in the not too distant future. There has yet to be one holiday-themed droid that they haven't offered on their site.
 
I think it's just a bummer sometimes to learn of their existence so early that you naturally trend to forget by the time it rolls around, if we learned of it closer to release date maybe the FOMO anxiety level would be less?
Given past releases my guess is sometime in March since Easer is April, as it's generally about one month prior?
 
They have done a pretty good job at getting theses droids on shopdisney the last few years. The last one I can remember not getting on there was maybe the Ahsoka droid from 2022? Before that, the first pride droid.
 
^ In recent years it has been much better, it was the initial Droids that you could get via online and had to resort to ebay. Then they finally reissued them in a multipack. Thay have also gotten much better with not selling out in the first five minutes and never offering it again, with it often going on sale withing two weeks after I've already bought it. lol
 
Ah, not a fan of clicking links and scrolling down either, I presume. 😁
The sixteenth of February.
 
I believe the 16th was for TheDisneyStore.com website.

I did not know for sure that Disneyland was the same as the website and the parks do not always line up.
 
Ah, okay. I don't know that there is a specific date for Disneyland, it just arrives when it does, yeah?
 
It would just help out if the employee at Disneyland said when they would put the droids out, as I know several people that work there (not in stores) and they could pick one up for me. Or they could let me know, and I could drive over to Downtown Disney and pick it up myself. That's all.

Just really looking forward to this guy too.
 
Gonna grab a few of these for myself, and one to put away for my daughter's Easter basket when she's old enough for such a small toy.
 
I completely understand that the "BNE" is a play on "bunny".
But I still always read it as "bone".
Good ol' R2-BONE ..... :rolleyes:

Shouldn't Jaxxon and/or Jarjar be the Easter Bunny of the SWU?

TBH, if Hasbro were to ever make him, Jaxxon, it would be an easy thing for Disney to repaint for an Easter themed release similar to Life Day Chewie. Though I get that it's not exactly the same.
I wouldn't be against it happening.

You're the first person on the planet to post an actual loose pic. Well done! Very glad to see the blue panels are on the top of the dome as well. Was wondering if they might be pink under that bunny hat. Are they blue all the way around?
Click to expand...



Yes they are blue all around. I got him on ebay for a decent price.
 
How close is the StarSpeeder’s light blue front logo to the droid’s color?
 
Now available at Disney Store (US). $14.99

Got four. Will likely get more if it hangs around long enough to go on sale. My astromech addiction knows no bounds. Especially when it comes to R2 units!
