1/6 Hot Toys GONK Droids: EG-6 (Lars) + Mos Eisley Power Droid

That one appears in this Imperial workout video. Seems the Emperor ordered everyone to do a bit of mall jogging every day.

The finish is absolutely laugh-out-loud awesome!

JACK!!!

I love the "keep in the doorway!" bit as the stormie accidentally peeps around the corner.

There's the bugger back there -- with the stove pipe!!!

That's no stove pipe, it's what got him on the Death Star.

 

[Wor-Gar]

Big swingin' stove pipe.

Re: Hot Toys GONK Droid (EG-6 Power Droid)

I want the Death Star gonk. That one must have known whose **** to suck because the squat made it to the ultimate hi-tech base.

Now you're posting potential spoilers for Rogue One. It turns out this Power Droid played a pivotal role in securing the Death Star plans for the rebel alliance. He then made sure to put himself on detail on the Death Star and helped R2 gain control of the trash compactor. Later helping to disable some of the DS's defences only to sacrifice himself when the whole thing went up.

Obviously I'm just summarizing, you can later check the page on wookiepedia, it's 300 pages long.

Ok so now I need an undercover rebel Gonk with a stove pipe and ratcheting legs so you can hear him coming.

This Gonk may bring back the DX line. IM ALL IN!

 

[Wor-Gar]

Watch that all come to pass.

Just wait until you hear about the Jedi Power Droid that trained R5-D4.

Watch that all come to pass.

I certainly couldn't just make this all up.

I'm hoping TA breaks down a BTTF2 Delorean so I can kit bash a Gonk with a Mr. Fusion.

 

[Waste Time Continuum]

More confirmation of there being 2 Gonks.

Nice, hope they come in a 2-pack.

 

[Pixelpiper]

I hope the open up to store stuff inside.

Leftover hot toys bits that weren't good enough for your collection or just snacks?

 

[Pixelpiper]

Scooby snacks.

Held together with tape?

 

[VintijDroidGutzz]

I'm still coming to terms with HT actually making these.

Not so long ago, folks who dared to make the assumption that background junk droids would somehow be on their roster, would've been cast out as lepers.

Now? ****. I want R1-G4 yo.

 

[Pixelpiper]

There has to be a story to the presence of these droids. They otherwise seems way too random.

I'm liking these new photos. Eliminates that boxy look Gonks sometimes get. The camera makes them look fat.
