I do think a Super Battle Droid would look great alongside Dooku... but it would have to be an AOTC SBD. Asta's comparison has convinced me to wait.

Besides, I suppose the best sidekick for Dooku is Jango.
And Ventress :)

A repaint on this guy could really put it over the edge. Needs to be a cooler, less shiny metal with more mottling and tone variation. It needs to look like it has weight. The current paint job looks like a toy.

You know what I'd love to see? A New Republic Security Droid. That was an awesome design
Yeah I’d kill for a HT of one of those droids. I think they look really cool.
 
They might just do it. It's practically K-2SO with a new chest and head.
 
I'll be very guttered if they actually stick to that design.

If they're going to bother making this figure at all, do the more detailed, more visually interesting, more canonical design from AOTC.

AOTC - CW - Mando

The Mando ones are closer to the CW version. Bulkier, rounder, simplified design.
Oh man I assumed that the PT and Mando SBD's were the same but damn the PT ones look so much more sleek and badass. Can't unsee now. Even droids get fat when they appear on Mando/BOBF, lol.
 
I would hope it’s taking forever because they’re retooling it to be accurate to AOTC. But then again, Hot Toys…

That is what I'm hoping for.

I don't think Lucasfilm would allow them to release this like it is as part of the AoTC wave.
 
Man seeing this in this scale...I never realized how poor of a droid design this is.

I feel like the KX Enforcer droid is what this wanted to be, but instead it's a paper shredder with legs.
 
That looks awful.

So it's the wrong design, the less detailed design, and not chrome because they used all their chrome paint up on two pointless special edition variants of troopers.

It also has a Mandalorian base (the sand type) but it's the wrong design even for the Mandalorian.
Total fail.
