Droideka

I have a new addition to my Star Wars figurine collections that I got from Kmart when they had the 15% off sale last week. Funny how sales always make me part with my money! My will power is not strong enough, must meditate on it!

The new addition is the Trade Federation's Droideka or commonly known as Destroyer Droid. Destroyer Droids are created to boost the Federation's Droid Army when their Battle Droids were found to be too weak in a combat situation.

There are other figurines in this series and I wouldn't mind getting my hands on the Clone Troopers and General Grievious next time there's a sale on! The other characters I'm not too interested in.

Upon opening the packaging I was a bit dissapointed that I cannot fold the droideka into that infamous "wheel form" where they can roll along to get from place to place. Oh well, it is just a toy!


There's not much involved in the assembly either, just clip on the head to the torso and that's it! I don't like the way the legs stand, they should spread out a bit more. And what's with those 2 red thingies that go with the guns? Missile launchers? Gimme a break! They're not supposed to come with those! Kena tipu liao!

What is it about boys and plastic figurines?

I suppose it's the same thing that afflicts women in regards to shoes, bags and clothes...
