SHFigurearts Star Wars : The Phantom Manace, Battle Droid.

SHFigurearts Battle Droid from Star Wars episode 1 The Phantom Manace.

Battle droids
Sometimes referred to as standard battle droids, were a model of battle droid manufactured by Baktoid Combat Automata. The Trade Federation made extensive use of B1 battle droids and utilized them as their military force during the Federation's invasion of Naboo. Ten years later, the Federation provided B1 battle droid forces to the Confederacy of Independent Systems, which were used against the clone army of the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars.
They were outlawed by the Galactic Empire in the wake of the destructive conflict.
During the Clone Wars, B1 battle droids were the most common form of battle droid. They would charge towards their enemies, firing their blasters. They had three fingers on each hand. They were vulnerable to EMP weapons, such as the electro-proton bomb. These battle droids were able to pilot and operate Single Trooper Aerial Platforms (STAPs) and Armored Assault Tanks (AATs).

Box art similar to previous Star Wars series.

Skinny little droid, kind of pity of their faith... ...turning to scrap metal.

Bandai did well on this action figure, detailing looks great on it.

Back. A very light weight droid to put on battlefield.

Side view. I saw some data said even humanoid can rip off it's limbs, oh my, so fragile.

Need a few units of real battle droids to guard my house, that is awesome.

GIF.

Close up of the head, there are some weathering effects on this figure.

There is some details at the bottom of the droid head. Backpack cannot remove from the droid.

Nice molding of all the body parts.

Neck can turn full circle.

Arms can lift up up to 90 degrees.

Elbow joint can only turn 90 degrees.

Have to careful of the bicep swivel joint, easily to snap off when lift up the shoulder. (but it didn't break)

"Roger, roger."
With fingers articulations, like it, but it can't hold items firmly.

Waist articulation, not much, but better than nothing.

No, not Karate Kid, just to show it's legs articulations and how stable it can.

"I surrender! I surrender!" Joints are really good for posing.

Compact mode.

Different angles of this mode.

The hand should be gripping its own legs, but I din do so. Fingers may fall off.

Compact for store in my storeroom, haha.

E5 Blaster Rifle, standard weapon of battle droid.

Very nice weapons parts.

No need to change parts to hold the blaster.

It can hold the blaster by two hands.

Dual blaster mode.

There is a hidden hook on the droid's backpack.

The blaster can attach on the backpack hook.

Marching to the battlefield.

"Yeah! I got one, I got one!"

"Wait a minute... I got a bad feeling a..."

"Help~~~ I dont' want to die!"
(well, technically that is no dead...)
"Die, clankers." Clone Trooper.

Republic Clones Versus Separatist Droids.

Who will win? I think everyone have the result in mind, hehe.

"Look guys, see what I got from store! An action figure of us!"
"Woa---! Cool---!". "Not as compact as us, color also not accurate...".

Compare with 3.75" Battle Droid.

Totally crooked 3.75" droid...

Compare with LEGO version.

Cute.

Why you are so crooked? 3.75" droid.

Height comparison with SHF Clone Trooper.


"Oh my gawd! Clones~~~!!"

"Cousins??"
"WUT!?" T1000 from the left.
