Finally someone is able to pose this droideka correctly. Every other videos I've seen of it they are incorrectly standing/balled up and look sloppy and drunk. Good video
I managed to get him in a very nice wheel mode by lifting up the "sternum", that way it allows you to bend even more the spine thing, then I disconected the font "neck" joint, and adjusted the back one
Let's hope Hasbro makes a vol. 2 of the Drioideka figure where the Wheel mode can be done and maybe, this could be made as a custom, but a base for the figure where you can attach the bubble shield. I love Droideka's since I saw Episode 1 for the first time as a kid, and also I love to go full on De4th Machine when I play Battlefront with the Droideka's even if I lose the game sometimes.
This has to be my favorite Black Series figure yet. My favorite SE Canon droid since I was a kid. I can't wait for the Phantom 3 Pack. Maul is also my favorite character all time. Very happy with this droid, easily 8/10, the ball mode needs work unless someone finds out more.
I think it could've been bigger wit more articulation to roll up better. I would love to see them do a holiday edition and or credit collection of this🥳 They should've included instruction or make a video bout it. Am I the only one wondering what the 2 silver dots on the the chest are for. First I thought they were metal pins for the arms to hinge but they're not metal and have no connection to the arms. I still think it looks like something should attach to the chest🤔
I think the 2 silver dots are metal pins for the arms in the cgi model. It's interesting they seem to just be painted on the figure, probably so they could reposition the hinge slightly to give it more room.
@@TheArtOfActionFigures Actually I feel like Droidekas prefer to be either alone or hang out with their own kind. They always seem to only appear after the other droids are destroyed, retreated, or otherwise fail at the objective.
Why is it that everyone else is getting theirs already? Who did you guys order through? I was a super early pre-order through Hasbro Pulse, and mine's still not arrived! It's been sitting in the same location for about 5 days now...and from the tracking info I have, DHL still hasn't even given the package to the delivery service (USPS)....is anyone else running into this problem as well??
@@TheArtOfActionFigures Thanks for the info and the well wishes! I'm hoping it'll arrive soon too! It give a broad, general estimate of tomorrow (6/1/24), but when I called Hasbro about it, they basically told me I shouldn't count on that being super accurate, and that if I don't get it by the 5th, then they'd attempt to look into it (one reps actual words were "well we're not worried about it" in regards to my concerns about why it's been sitting in the state right next to mine and hasn't moved in 4 days at the time; less than stellar customer support from that person for sure haha). Thanks for the AWESOME vid though, this is a really well done one with LOTS of cool, useful stuff! Appreciate it!
Hiw soes hasbro release a figures with no instructions mine didn't come with instructions when I got them I had to come here and I'm glad I did because I got both with no instructions
@TheArtOfActionFigures ahhh makes sense they could have at least included something though because some of us fans would have attempted to do the ball form

I never seen a Droidika ever posed like that before!
A droideka in a gun kata pose is wild.

Thanks! Fun figure to pose, but definitely doesn't pose itself.
Mate what a great vid. Lovely to see someone willing to put the time in to work this out and share it. Good on ya.
Thanks!

That droideka about to have an anime opening XD I just got mine and this video was helpful
The best “ball mode” I’ve seen bends the two front legs up and over the shoulders from the front. Not accurate but makes a rounder shape
Interesting, that helps hold it together, but still gotta do something to bridge the gap between the nose and back foot.
Great video Pletho! We’ll definitely be talking about the Droideka on the next VIO hangout
Very nice! Imagining engineering this figure blows my mind
The joints on my destroyer droid seem to be nice and tight . I’m very pleased with the sculpt and articulation. Great video!!
It's such a pretty figure, and surprisingly fun to pose! They did a really nice job translating the design.
@@TheArtOfActionFigures I totally agree I been waiting forever for this one and the B2

Actually they don’t always come in pairs. Ahsoka and Anakin ran into a lone one during the battle of Christophsis. It was one of the few times.
I feel bad for the poor, lone droideka 😞

Mine were pre-ordered through Pulse as well. Hopefully they get it to you soon!

Glad I could help! I've never seen instructions on Black Series, so it's probably just not in their packaging plan for that line.
@TheArtOfActionFigures ahhh makes sense they could have at least included something though because some of us fans would have attempted to do the ball form
Just out of curiosity how much did you happen to pay for this figure? I’d like to get 2 as well
Retail cost per figure is 34 USD
