I recently bought the 12" EP I R2-A6 for about $20. Good price for a very nice 12" figure IMO. Change the green to blue, and you basically have R2-D2. I suppose the R2-A6 and the R2-D2 are identical, save for the color of course. I haven't unpacked the figure yet, but I really wonder, what could SSC possibly do to improve this figure? I mean like a $40 to $70 improvement (taking SSC's current 12" prices in account)??? Sideshow would at least have to add lights and the obligatory compartments to the figure. And a sound ship. Not that I fancy having R2-D2 tweeting about all day long, I'm just looking for extra value... What could SSC possibly do to justify the $60 to $90 price tag? I don't see them touching the $90, anyway.
I just got the HT Dallas, and the helmet lights are very impressive. The figure is well worth the money, even without the lights. I usually don't care to much for these kind of gadgets, especially if they make the figure more expensive, or, are used as an excuse to raise the price. So, personally, I'm not waiting for a 12" R2-D2 with lights, but it might look nice if Sideshow does it right. I just wonder if a R2-D2 with lights is worth three times the cost of the old Hasbro R2-D2.
