I don't know why, but this figure and character is really speaking to me, so I bought one even on top of all my rhetoric how the figures are getting too expensive.
$12.99 for an accessory sized figure is high. Over $20 shipped is really high. But FOMO prevailed today and this Droid Factory announcement made me fear he won't show up in TVC at all, so I will bite before it becomes "hard to find" and even more expensive.
