Picked this up for less than half price from ebay, factory second with no box and some chrome marks (damn I feel naughty, should I even be admitting that?

despite its flaws (the headsculpt is very stylised but it kinda feels ok in hand) it has a really nice presence that I'm sure is what makes the c3po owners so dogged about defending it, basically for what I paid I'm happy.
Also feel the need to keep the eyes switched on forever, never usually big on light up gimmicks - any idea how long the 2 watch batteries will last?
His height is ok, but build wise he is a bit skinny, but its such a nice package you suspend disbelief that a man has to fit inside a 1:1 suit and your mind just perceives it in SW terms as a droid, that could potentially be slighter than organics
