StarWars.Com's Cargo bay has images up of the 6th droid in the series, R4-M9. While the name is the same as the white and green droid from the POTJ line, the coloring is different. His panals are a baby blue/aquamarine color, instead of green. They have him scheduled for a August release. So we have 6 so far, with another 3 to rumored to be revealed.

He's pretty.
Better paint job (so far) than the POTJ version, and the leg is retracted so the 'bent leg' problem is removed. The big difference is the lack of vertical stripes, which would make a POTJ custom harder.
I can live with two R4-M9s in the galaxy...I want him.

Journalists are mostly centrist in their political orientation. The minority of journalists who do not identify with the "center" are more likely to identify with the "right" when it comes to economic issues and to identify with the "left" when it comes to social issues.

I just spoke to an operator for the 1-800 number and she said there are only going to be 6 made. They will be selling them as soon as they get them in... possibly Late September. They are not offering them until all of the pieces are in stock.

The operator's don't know anymore then we do though, JEDIpartnr. Heck, most of the time they actually know less. Back when the first 2 came out, they said that would be all. And then R3-D3 was revealed. And then it was a set of 3. Then 2 more popped up, and then finally the 6th figure. I wouldn't be suprised to see a 3rd set of 3.

O.K. I know that Sir Steve is in good old Florida that I just came back from on vacation BUT.......I spoke with the lady at Once Upon A Toy and she told me that there were only THREE more figures being released at the end of September. I did pick up the first three that's how I got talking to her about the next three.
