Love it, you sold me.

I'll need one too. Hopefully it's available on the Disney Parks app. I'm pretty far behind on the last year's worth of droids

I'm still waiting on Chopper to show up on the app, so I'm not holding my breath.

The app is completely useless. It never has anything new. If you do get something, it looks like it was slam dunked.

Yeah I'm still waiting for that Rogue One Astromech 4 pack to return to stock. It has been sold out since Christmas.

I've had some ok luck between my friends and myself but they don't seem to be consistent with putting things on it.  I kept hopping for an extra Chopper just because it'd be cool for other configurarions on the shelf.  Alas he is still a Park exclusive.  I think I got a RO and TFA set on it though.

I found one these on ebay on buy it now for $19.95 plus free shipping. Snagged it. I'm also having my sister look for them since she still has an Annual Pass.

I grabbed this guy off of eBay this morning. $16.79 shipped which is better than the app with shipping. The app has it up but one of those "in parks" only deal. It's like they are teasing us!

Got mine.  Love it!

I just snagged one on eBay for $21 shipped.  For the $3 extra compared to the app it didn't seem like I should bother looking over and over.

That glow feature is pretty damned cool

This is on the app now, but listed as "In Stores Only"

Disney is taunting us with that "store only" label. Why bother even listing it if we cannot buy it. I'm hoping these things appear as purchasable at some point.

Got mine in the mail today. The glow-in-the-dark feature is great!

I finally got around to grabbing one off eBay for $19.95 + free shipping as well.  I think that makes me all caught up on Disney carded Droid Factory figures again...  until R3-H17 hits the parks after Halloween is over. :P
