Title: # Corporate Alliance Tank Droid # Octuptarra Droid
Post by: Clonehead on May 10, 2009, 08:48:08 PM: Just found these images which are of prototypes as reported by Scum.

I have been wanting the Tank Droid ever since ROTS came out and hadn't even hoped that they would make the Octuptarra Droid, yet.

I want em and I want em, now!!
This news should please Alex as he is always needing some more firepower for his Corporate Alliance legions.

I don't know if they put that in the shot for scale, or what.

Post by: Tamer on May 16, 2009, 05:20:35 PM: They are coming out with some great vehicles thats for sure. Sometimes I do wonder too Greg. Still, it is a relief sometimes to only worry about TESB things. Sometimes with prices I wonder if I will be able to keep up with even that.

Post by: Clonehead on July 23, 2009, 05:59:26 PM: They didn't have it. I'll bet if I had that crazy stock code that they could have got it out of the back for me.
I did score there last clearance rebel pilots 2 Eco pack for $10.88

Post by: Tamer on July 26, 2009, 05:49:26 PM: Some rumors I have heard were that this thing was spindly and very tippy, but from what I saw on that SDCC panel, it sure looked good.
