While they look pretty decent, the prices are estimated at $216 US for C-3PO and $193 for R2-D2 (though he does have light-up features). I’d wait for Sideshow to release their versions of these figures instead, but for the rich amongst us that require these two for their 12″ collection as soon as possible, here you go!

At least with stormtroopers and the like, they have fabric under the armour. But with these two? Beats me!

Either way, great looking sneak peek so far.

Check the pictures, he’s looking sweet as hell. Optional accessories, opening and closing doors, 1/6th scale. Kind of expensive. That said, he looks like the best R2-D2 released to date and he’d go well with all the 1/6th figures released.
