Hot toys is just awful with the timing of announcements, this figure should’ve been Announced last year and it would’ve released this year, right when the 25th celebration of phantom menace. Same thing with return of the Jedi Vader. They need to announce these figure one year prior to the anniversary year then it would’ve released in the anniversary year.

[@JustinsCollection]

Agreed!

[@Quiet737]

After watching your channel for a while, this is going to be my first Hot Toys figure I'm going to order. I love the Droideka too much

[@JustinsCollection]

Noice!

[@Bamboozlenoodle]

I remember a (featurette) documentary about the Droideka and recall a concept artist saying they only cheated a little bit in terms of the functionality of the droid. They only had a few elements clipping in the model when animating the transformation. It seems HT delivered on that aspect with a fully transformable Droideka. I had hoped for this droid and now my wish has come true. Instantly pre-ordered it last week as a Hot Toys droid only collector. It looks fantastic.

[@JustinsCollection]

Oh interesting!

[@ArchangelKalEl7828]

😍 What a Outstanding Looking Droideka 1/6 Scale! One of the Best Detailing and Designed Ever Produced by Hot Toys! 👌👏

[@JustinsCollection]

Love it!

[@ArchangelKalEl7828]

@@JustinsCollection Me too! 🌟

[@ilCeTlimE]

well not a mandalorian, but still ordered! 😅🤣 looks dope :)

[@JustinsCollection]

Haha fair

[@VusiZungu-hy8bl]

This video is still on seconds

[@JustinsCollection]

Nice!

[@nm2358]

This thing is a nostalgic blast from the past. These Droids were probably the 2nd best things about Phantom Menace, first being Darth Maul (that fight choreography and look was too amazing), so its nice to see a high-end figure of them after such a long time.

[@JustinsCollection]

Agreed

[@the_cheap_ones]

Nick Gillard is the BEST star wars Fight coordinator !!!!!!!❤

[@Alvin123-zx_]

Justin do you have any plans for next video because i want to give you suggestions 😁

[@JustinsCollection]

Always! I have a content plan for the next few months

[@Alvin123-zx_]

@@JustinsCollection so do you want my help

[@Linda-hf7vr]

This is such a cool design! I think its my favorite droid design.

[@JustinsCollection]

I think so too!

[@StarWarsOwen]

No shield?!?! they coulda easily made it?? just a sphere thats transparent blue? Can't wait to see the fans and custom figure makers create it tho

[@JustinsCollection]

Yeah they could have easily

[@daviddezonie3012]

It’s always a great day when we have a new addition to the collection ❤

[@JustinsCollection]

Agreed!

[@gundamrx792]

looks good but dam everything is creeping up to around 400 bucks getting hard to justify

[@JustinsCollection]

Dang!

[@elitewolf5096]

I guess it's only matter of time that general grievous will release someday... I mean they made battle droid and this one, why not grievous? It just... doesn't make any sense if they just skip him🥲I really hope we can see him within this year, but next year is highly likely

[@Bamboozlenoodle]

Grievous and a magnadroid are also high on my 'wanted' list. Fingers crossed for the 20th anniversary of RotS next year...

[@JustinsCollection]

Yeah we need him!

[@JAMMD17]

Thankyou Ryan for making this video possible with these gorgeous pictures!

[@JustinsCollection]

He's the best!

[@Gatchaman01]

Ohhhhh don’t give me hope to have a Padawan Kenobi, that would blow my mind and finally have all of the Kenobi figures. If they do that how about a 2.0 for Old Ben? That would be awesome. Nice video & Tnx Ryan for the awesome pics 💯

[@JustinsCollection]

Yeah I'd cop that too!

[@patmanning9367]

Give us blast effects already

[@JustinsCollection]

Yes!

[@southernmercy5962]

They look so bizarre...

[@JustinsCollection]

Oh

[@liljimmy9201]

people hurriedly running to their front doors when this thing finally gets delivered will look like qui gon and obiwan using the "force run" to get away from these things ha ha...keep up the great critiques Justin!

[@JustinsCollection]

Always!

[@AndrewJaques-vo8sw]

He looks amazing 👍

[@JustinsCollection]

It does!

[@lynnpachano9847]

It’s amazing! Very great-full HT announcement it. Nice pics Ryan - cool video Justin

[@JustinsCollection]

Need it!

[@melchiah_]

perhaps use a blue tinted glass bowl upside-down for the shield, just an idea, you could see a glass maker?

[@JustinsCollection]

True!

[@charlietheunicorn5383]

One of the great entrances into a Star Wars film. An amazing pick-up for any SW ep1 2 or 3 collection.

[@JustinsCollection]

Agreed!

[@ImSorryWho]

There’s no way we would have gotten a shield as an effect part. Not only would it charge up the price significantly, but the box housing it would need to be big enough to house an inflated beach ball. Shipping/distribution and manufacturing costs would probably not be worth it for them.

[@JustinsCollection]

I mean the box already needs to encase the droideka itself, why not package it wearing the shield already. A translucent piece of plastic is not that expensive

[@ImSorryWho]

@@JustinsCollection the droideka might already be seeing new packaging since it’s the first 1/6 Star Wars figure that’s engineered to compress itself to a ball. You may be right that it could be cheap to produce but allot of logistics still needs to go into it. How thick should it be? Will it distort or break during distribution as a result of excessive heat or mishandling? I’d imagine these were headaches they deliberately chose to avoid. You could also think of it as the first time hot toys providing a “display case” for their figure which brings up the question should they charge extra for that? They’re a business after all.

[@DesignedAssassin]

Defiantly gives me hope for that tan B1 battle droid!!!

[@JustinsCollection]

Yes!

[@halfvader8015]

Customisers all out there itching to do the fibre optic thing...

[@JustinsCollection]

Yeah!

[@sierratrist9484]

Awesome figure preview! It's so cool

[@JustinsCollection]

Thank you!
