Geonosis Assault Battle Pack
« on: October 01, 2009, 10:59:57 AM »
Here is one that I had been looking for. Purchased for $24.99 at a TRU, this pack contains One ball turret and two aotc style gunship pilots.

The pilots are super arty and have the same removable helmet/airbox combo that the original evolutions pilot had.
Both come with a dc14 blaster and in both cases, "I bought two of these sets", one of the clones has an unnatural spread to his legs. Could be in the packaging or it could be intentional and he could be the one that's supposed to be in the ball.

Now the ball turret is a great piece that has a swing open top and nearly plenty of room for a cramped clone to sit inside and grip the turrets detailed controls. "getting a figure to do this is no easy task, btw" The turret has a baseplate for posing it on it's own or, when you remove this baseplate, you can mount the multi-jointed arm of the turret to the receiving pegs on the inside of either side of a republic gunship toy. The arm has 3 joints and two pivot points and can be posed in several positions while on the gunship and that mounting point in the gunship holds the arm very well. "we have wondered for years why those pegs were there. Now we know"

Its a great set folks but keep in mind that at $24.99 a piece, It will take you $50 to equip your gunship with these.

Same as tamer..looking for ATST.

I saw this and the vulture battle pack.

Found a tie interceptor(with crushed box, since I know serious collectors would not take it home, lol) but not atst.

Did find Argyus, though, rad figure.

Clint, do you think his helmet could be cast?

I also really want 2 of these, and the $10 off a $75 or more purchase from TRU just may get me them before the 18th of October.
Great review and pics.
 thanks Clint.

I want an Argyus helmet.  Among other things.  Including the letter 'C' stricken from the alphabet.
