Title: TRU Clone Wars Assassin Spider Droid
Post by: Jeff on July 22, 2011, 03:40 PM

Looking forward to better pic of this - was a great episode and really neat to get the spider in figure form - looked like the set comes wth the big Assassin Spider Droid, two 'lil spiders and two clones.

I'd like to know who it's suppose to assassinate.

Call Hasbro out on their incomplete play scenarios.

Very cool and great execution.  Of Satine, if she were included with the thing they sent to kill her.

Hooray! Almost August, when the big box stores reset and we can easily find everything from he first couple waves before they over order on early stuff and never sell it through in time time to buy new sets in the spring.
 This has to be one of he best clone wars surprises of the con. I am nervous about what tru is going to want to charge, but it looks awesome. Looks like one of the clones is a new repaint as well. Of course I can only imagine what it will feel like when I step on one of those spiders for the first time the kids always leave the sharpest toys where you can't see them.

So what kind of a set is this, a battlepack or what? It's too much stuff to be in the Deluxe line.

I agree this is very cool, but this thing was rumored for weeks leading up to SDCC, so it didn't seem like news to me.

Good to get confirmation though.

I think it's considered a battlepack of sorts, more than a boxed set like TFU sets, or the Battle over Endor packs.

I'm so enamored with how well they pulled off that droid, I will have one of those.  Some CLones will be up for grabs from it, but that droid I must have.  It was sweet in the cartoon, and even sweeter as a toy.

$21.99?  That's hard to imagine.

I just saw this is on sale for $19.99 now at TRU. Hope it's not too late for a price adjustment...
