If there is one Action Fleet mold I would propose for the new Ultimate Titaniums line it would be the Homing Spider Droid.

This is one of the quintessential Prequel Trilogy vehicles that we have yet to have produced, and the Action Fleet mold already exists.

Homing Spider droids were in Attack of the Clones and briefly in Revenge of the Sith - they were in the Clone Wars video game - they were in the Clone Wars animated series (both of them) - they have been in both Star Wars: Battlefront video games - I would consider them BASIC vehicles to have been produced, and they never saw production.

I always felt it was a huge oversight not to produce these during the final wave of Action Fleet ships because AT-TE's were produced - releasing the Homing Spider Droids would have sold all the remaining AT-TE's off shelves as diorama-builders stockpiled on both.

Now, even at a $20.00 price point, I would easily purchase two Titanium Homing Spider Droids to add to my collection.

If there is any suggestion I ever make to Hasbro which ever gets through whatever filters exist, this would be the one I would want to get to someone who could really consider it for the company.

I think this would be a slam dunk. We'd buy it.

I agree.

I'd also like to see it as a toy for the 3 3/4 line.

It's REALLY simple. all the legs are the EXACT SAME, which means one mold for those. Then it's a simple sperical body mold with some radar dishes and they're done.

How hard can this be to make Hasbro?
