Paint and sculpt are impeccable (as usual) as are\u00a0the articulation and accessories. This release shines in the fact that it includes a very cool light-up communications console that features switch out &#8220;caps&#8221; for varied display options. The Holographic Count Dooku is surprisingly large &#8211; nearly 3-3\/4&#8243; scale &#8211; and looks fantastic when illuminated. Finally, this figure looks great when commanding his other Geonosian Infantry Droids released earlier this year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CONS:\u00a0<\/strong>Be careful in the handing of the droid\u00a0right from the\u00a0packaging as the elbow joints for most battle droids I have encountered have been frozen (i.e. stuck) and the arms can easily break if the joints are forced. There is only one more &#8220;movie&#8221; battle droid that needs to be released &#8211; the blue &#8220;pilot&#8221; version &#8211; after that, I hope Sideshow offers a Super Battle Droid or Droideka as the standard battle droid sculpt is starting to feel a little played out.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.yakfaceforums.com\/TGuide2004\/html\/Sideshow\/ssc_geonosis_battle_droid_commander.html\">Head to the toyguide<\/a>\u00a0for the full\u00a0image gallery and to judge for yourself whether this figure\u00a0is worth adding to your collection.<\/p>\n<p>You can also weigh in with your impressions on the figures we add to our toyguide on\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pages\/Yakfacecom\/202559486798?ref=mf\">facebook<\/a>\u00a0and in our\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.yakfaceforums.com\/\">forums.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The\u00a0Yakface Toyguide\u00a0updates resume with a quick tour of\u00a0the new\u00a01:6 Scale\u00a0Geonosis Battle Droid Commander from Sideshow Collectibles.
