I like the one with the death star holoprojection.

[Action Figure Soundwave]

Man , I can't wait for these guys .

 

 

 

Oh, by the way Wheeljack... did you ever get the Target R5 remote Astromech ?

[Wheeljack35]

I'm loving these new astromechs

 

The R5 unit looks cool in these colors and the R3 units have clear domes like they are supposed to be

 

 

No on the remote

 

I have been broke for a while and have gotten only a transformer the only thing I have gotten this month

I wouldn't even consider buying some of these figures but I want the astromechs

[Wheeljack35]

Man , I can't wait for these guys .

 

 

 

Oh, by the way Wheeljack... did you ever get the Target R5 remote Astromech ?

 

Love how the blue , purple & green ones look in the bottom row & well... honestly you can not really go wrong with black either Can't really tell the differences too much with the orange & white/?redish? colored ones though honestly... I only feel the need to buy more or less the same toy in a certain color scheme so many times...

[Wheeljack35]

I added two more astromechs

R2 Whistler and R3-M3

[Wheeljack35]

I fianlly finishe R5-C7 he is the gray and white R5 unit on the picture about a few posts up

 

Now on to R3-A2 and R2-P44 there the two droids respectively next to the picture of the R5 unit

 

I have the torsos and I put the heads aside till I get some extra cash and then I will have to find there legs

[Wheeljack35]

Well so far I have near 50 astromechs and waiting for one coming in the mail and looking for one in the newest wave

 

I'm hoping to have pics up of how my collection has grown since the year began.

[Wheeljack35]

Here are some updated pictures of my collection

Nice man ..... You should just go ahead and open those others LOL Most of them aren't worth a lot anyway .

[Wheeljack35]

Nah I know they sren't worth much but I will wait a while before ever opening them

[Action Figure Soundwave]

I'm trying to get my Hands on Several (like 60 plus) of the Power Harness' that came with the R2-B1 , you know what i mean ? LOL

[synch]

Nice stuff WJ I always enjoy looking at you're droid collection :)I hope to see the new wave at some point...

Even starwars toys seem to run up dry here though lately @can@

[Wheeljack35]

I have two more I need

 

I don't know about a third one which comes with the X-wing and wedge

 

The two I need are the red astro that comes with Grevious in a two pack and the other of course is R2-X2 which I haven't found yet

 

I found the wave he comes in but not him

 

 

 

Action Figure Soundwave.....

 

I have two of the power harnesses as you see in the picture but 60? Damn...

Yeah , since there's a Good 50 or so Astromechs Already , I'd like to have just a few more sothat I'll have one for Every Astromech , but I think by the time I acquire even half of that , there will probably be 80 Astromechs LOL You know ? LOL .... I just can't seem to find anyone that has any they want to get rid of...

[Wheeljack35]

The astros without retractable third legs will have to be taken of care as of you have to take ther tripods off and put them somewheres because you can only stand these up in the power harnesses while there standing on two legs.

 

You will never find them all unless you contact Hasbro

 

Just get some teired stands like I got you can find some used for cans in your cabinet at any Walmart or Target

[Action Figure Soundwave]

Oh I have a place to keep the Third Legs of the Astromechs .... it's just an idea that I've been toying with for awhile .... I guess i've just have to look at alot of Ebay Lots and hope for the best. I just really want to make a Big Diorama and having those Harnesses would be a big part of it..... a big percentage of a Custom Droid Factory I've had in mind

[Wheeljack35]

I just hope that we will see more astros next year

[Action Figure Soundwave]

True , but NO MORE white ones with a little color Trim on it .... you know what i mean ? If there's any that are white , they better color up more panels on the droid , sorta like the Purple R5 we just got in the ROTJ wave... you know what i mean ?.... I want more Color Combination

 

-A Neon Green Body, with a Purple Head and Legs with a little Green Trim , and the Panels on the Body being Purple aswell

-R5's and R7's and the Coneheads having Clear Heads

-Mixing a Few different Model Parts with Eachother , but matching colors ... like an R7 body with an R5 Head (not that many of the current BAD part look that good together)

 

I'm sorry if I'm ranting ,it's just that I'm tired of seeing too many white Astros. Hasbro needs to be a little more creative.

[Wheeljack35]

I really would love to see an R6 unit and possibly ,maybe an R8 and R9 unit too

 

Only R3's have the clear domes

[synch]

 

I found the purple one & the blue one with the clear dome today! A complete set! But damn! cost me like $89!!! I'm going to have to be selective about these things, I'm taking the blue one back but keeping the purple one ... It would not hurt so much if they did not have such crap characters & aliens in these things... Give me some freaking clones so I can at least army build them too or something LOL! But most these figures look like trash & are characters I care nothing about! @loll@

[Wheeljack35]

Yeah thats my main beef I have to get characters I normally wouldn't get so I can get the astromech itself
