I didn't pay £75 as I used the 25% off promo code, which made it a more reasonable price for 6 buildable droids and a novelty box.

That's probably the best Star Wars toys I've seen in ages. Daft fun things.
Not as interchangeable as one would want from something called Droid Factory, but the individual designs are great.

I presume this is the thing I've heard mentioned as "The Star Tours Robot"? It rings no bells with me, but fair enough - I hope you enjoy it when it arrives!

Which also featured in an episode of Rebels, I believe. So it is perfectly canon. (As if Star Tours was somehow never canon…) Ah yes, I suspected we might have had this exact same conversation before. A nice little set for sure with that discount. And one I’ll be staying well away from - that’s the start of a dangerous path…

Two points: 1: The packaging states it actually has *7* Droids as one is mystery (shown only in silhouette). So on discount it works out at £8 a droid. Better than retail for regular droids. 2: The box cardboard feels very flimsy so the Sandcrawler may not survive being deployed for more than one Christmas. It looks fab though. -Ralph

Alas, RX-24 is utter shite. I made the mistake of not checking if it was Hasbro product or a generic "made by Disney Store" toy (which are usually poor quality). It is the latter. Biiiig painty scuff marks on the base. Plastic feels bad. It rattles when you move (not a good sound). The "motion activated features" mean you have to tilt it (rather than wave a hand) to get the same lights/sounds as per pressing the button. -Ralph
