Wal-Mart Droid Factory Sets

Corran Horn with Whistler Droid

Awesome.

I can't wait for that set. I REALLY hope they put him in his X-Wing duds and not Jedi Robes...

EDIT: It looks like the Boba Fett and BL-17 set is a Droids throwback. That's pretty cool.

[Darby]

I don't know who any of these droids are...

Boba Fett and BL-17 has me most pumped for this wave of figures. Anything to get more Droids and Ewoks characters.

[Darth_Anton]

I'll get the whole set, but the only figures I'm looking forward to is the rebel pilot and the Darktrooper.

[David]

The Boba set is the most exciting, but I'll still get the whole wave to build the Darktrooper and then sell the figures that don't interest me.

[Rob]

Looking at the pictures, this round looks a lot more interesting to me than the last round... only 5 to buy and a few new figures in there too.  The only really boring one to me is the Anakin / Super Battle Droid.

I'm really only interested in the Corran Horn set. I wish we would get better pics of the Grievous, if it's the new Legacy one with a cape I'm all over it.

I was hoping the same thing, but it looks like the crappy ROTS version. I like the cape though.

[Diddly]

The sad thing is I'll probably end up getting it anyway for the Astromech. I'll also wait until I see the Maul and Boba sets in person.

I'm glad there's only five sets, since I want that Darktrooper but don't really want to buy that many sets. I wonder if these will be $13 like the comic packs, and I doubt I'll get lucky and find them on clearance as soon as they arrive like I did with last year's sets.

[Brian]

I kind of enjoyed last year's round of these, so its nice to see more on the way.  Plus, like mentioned, there's only five to buy this time so that's better too.  The last sets sat around here for quite awhile (although long gone now), so hopefully they won't be too tough to find either.  I was hoping the Grievous would be the Legacy version with the soft goods cape, but it doesn't look like it to me either.  We'll probably all end up buying it and just re-using the cape, if possible, and then Hasbro will re-release the good Grievous later on with the cape as an individually carded figure .

[Jesse James]

I've not had a moment to find the pictures for these yet but I'm excited for a Phase 2 Darktrooper (YAY!  Goes well with the new Kyle I guess), and really any of these sets sound pretty good to me.  I loved last years, even at full price.  I got a second set at $7 a pop and they were a pretty good bargain overall to me.

Will these new ones still chime in at a good price?  Eh, tough to say.  Everything seems like Hasbro's jacking it up, regardless of whether they have the toolings available already or not.  It sucks pretty bad, especially since some of their old excuses aren't there and they're just drumming up new ones for price hikes.

I am just happy to get more droids.

So to spare me the search, who has the pictures?  I'm not seeing the Droid Factory packs on anyone's site but I'd like to see what they look like since I too am unsure who any of the droids are.
