Yeah, this was even a no brainer for me if you can believe it. Make sure you get the exclusive version as it has more stuff.

I figured you would eat this up being the King of the Astro-Mechs!

Yepper true to your Imperial Collection Serg, but this one really looks great. I figure they will repaint and offer all kinds of versions of it though.

I'm sure we'll see all kinds of colored astromechs, the same way we see SSC clones. :)
