Their story starts in the New marvel Star Wars comics, specifically the Darth Vader comics.

Vol. 2 I believe.

well this is out of left field

There is also the Doctor Aphra book and full cast audiobook that tells the same story if you want to donthat instead.

Images up on Social media!

Can’t afford them but I love the murder droids they are very entertaining in the books

Looks like he will be limited quantity.

Whew. I know this is a less in-demand figure, but limiting him to 2K units (less than Artisan Anakin) when BT-1 is a regular release feels real scummy. Either they both should've been exclusive, or neither should have been.

Completely agreed. If I don't get him, I'm cancelling BT-1. I want all or nothing.

Honestly love it

Why make him limited and the other droid not. Very annoying

All the love HT gained last night just got flushed down the toilet.

They're a duo, making one an exclusive and the other not..just doesn't make sense. You'd sell more by making it a regular release. Instead a lot will cancel BT if they can't grab this guy.

I just don't understand the thought process here.

It doesn't make any sense.

They've practically killed sales for BT-1, and potentially Aphra as well.

Glad that a fourth announcement is up but agree that making half of a pair limited is just stupid.

Agreed. What an idiotic move. They could have just made it a coin exclusive like Revan and Starkiller but making one half of the pair an extremely limited exclusive is just stupid.

I can only hope Sideshow does something different and only lets those that ordered BT get first dibs rather than the usual random BS queue system they’ve done lately.

So BT is a normal release, and 000 is exclusive. What a dick move from HT, really ... jesus, InArt, just buy the SW license already.

Sorry but wtf are Hot Toys doing? I have no interest in this figure but making half of a duo a limited quantity exclusive is absolutely ridiculous.

Going to harm their sales of that astromech.

Someone in management thought this was a brilliant sales tactic. I think they take us clients for id*ots.
