So I got these in the mail today - and wow - I'm totally shocked, I hadn't looked at any of the online photo galleries close enough, I had just assumed that the outer shell part of the droids' bodies were all the same - nope - BB-9E is completely unique, while 2BB-2 & BB-4 do share the same body shell, but they have unique "domes".

Additionally, BB-8 and BB-4 share the same weighted ball sculpt, where 2BB-2 and BB-9E have a new unique weighted ball sculpt.

So basically, in the BB-Unit Droid Factory line, we now have the following unique parts:
2 Different Weighted Interior "cores"
3 Different Top & Bottom Exterior "shells"
4 Different BB Unit "domes"

So A LOT more variation than I originally thought there would be.

Just picked this up on the Parks App, along with the 25% off code. $27 total, so not too bad.

Is it confirmed that the BB-8 in this set is the same as the single carded Droid Factory BB-8?

Not sure if they made a running change on the single carded version or not, but my single carded version has silver highlights around the main eye that really shouldn't have been there and same goes with the secondary eye/scope (again, on the real droid it's all black).

Also, the smaller antennae on the single carded version is incorrectly silver, whereas the box set version is the correct white color.

So the Box Set version is more accurate than the single carded version.

My package arrived today (no thanks to a UPS/USPS swap). Fun little set!
