Just found this news of an exclusive figure that comes with Battlefront, being released later this year.

Yeah, except for that big honking gun he has. It must be awfully hard to steer a bike while holding on to that thing.

Hey! I've already got this figure. I just gave one of my Biker Scouts I-G88's rifle and it looks pretty similar. :D I'll post a pic later.

I like it! The Biker Scout is one of my favorite figures, and this packaging looks really cool to me.
I like these onesy items, makes a nice display piece, and you don't have to go nuts with a whole bunch of figures if your a completist.
I was planning on buying Battlefront too, now this sweetens the pot. I really hope I can get a nice mint one. :smoker:

Well, here's my pic. Of course mine is the dirty version but as soon as the OTC clean Biker Scout comes out, I'll be able to correct that little issue. Anyway, I may buy Battlefront and a figure to boot is nice.

I read on GH that this guy will also be available to the Fan Club later this year (sans the not for resale part), for those (like me) who won't be getting Battlefront. Still, I don't know if I'll get him, unless he's priced the same as regular figures.

I take it you're not a gamer evenflow?
The game looks incredible and its a dream come true for many SW/gaming fans. Looks to me like this will be even better than KOTOR and possibly even become the best SW game ever.

I am wondering if it willcome with the X-Boxgame,PC game or both?

Hopefully both.
Or in my case: if not both, then the X-Box version please :smoker:

I totally am actually, but since I am huge Zelda fan I bought a gamecube instead of an Xbox (if i ever get soem cash i will pick it up).

It'll most likely be for both Xbox and PC or PC only. But I highly doubt it will be an xbox-only thing. The PC version comes out first and will have the best sales out of all the platforms.
Also, it looks like you have to pre-order the game to get the figure. It doesn't come in the box, it comes in the pre-order box (or with it). The Lucas Arts email calls it a pre-sale figure.

Well, I found out some good news. The game will be released on PC, X-Box and PS2. Also, the figure comes with each version. I preordered mine today at EB Games.

kidhuman - did you preorder locally or online? and did they say you will get the figure when the game ships?
the one thing bugging me is that neither the websites nor the stores say you get the figure. I've only heard lucas say you get a figure.

I ordered locally. I went into Software Etc agctually. SOrry about that. I went into the store at the mall. It wasnt on the screen, but when I preordered it, it popped up on his screen that the figure comes with it.

Yea, I pre-ordered mine set from ebgames on line. Its up on their site and has a photo of the trooper in the packaging.
If you walk into a brick and mortar store to pre-order you might want to make sure the schmucks behind the counter know there's a bonus with a pre-order. I got burned on the tron action figure when I pre-ordered from my mall ebgames. Not taking a chance again, besides the game looks pretty cool.
I wonder if they'll do anything special for KOTR II and Commando...here's to hoping.

I went into EB first and asked them about the figure and the guy looked at me like I had two heads. Software ETC. wasnt sure, but he pulled it up on his computer and said it was there with the game. So now on 9/22 it will be mine. Gonna be an expensive week and all.

I'll have to check with my local EB and GameStop.
I would order online, but then I will worry about if the package gets there ok (UT2004 Limited Edition came in a beat up box and the tin cover was dented in a bit). Plus you have to wait a day or 2 for the game to arrive. I'm too impatient about new/good games like this, so I'll want it the first day it comes out.
