Anyway, this is pretty epic. Thanks guys, can't wait to play as them!

It was definitely hard work, but we knew they were coming back then. We just had to keep that to ourselves until they were ready to be shown since we don't like to over-hype expectations. The dedication of the people who worked on the Droideka can't be understated. I'm excited to see them rolling around the battlefront!

Just posting this as I wouldn't want people to get burnt and lose money --- I'm the creator of the design, it was a one-off piece for Ben. If you see this on retail sites, don't buy it - you won't be getting the original, they are fakes and chances are you won't be happy with them (for a start the visual isnt pink)

I am working on bringing them to retail though, stay tuned.

Ben what’s the feeling around the team with Droidekas rolling out, is it more of a relief, because now you can dedicate more time on what you’ve already doing or is it a chance to pick something new entirely off that shelf?

Both

50/50.

Edit: Today was a really good day, but I'm not wanting to hype anything. I'll leave it all for you to decide.

As a follow-up then, if you can answer...

Have you been working on or did you at least plan on adding Droidekas since before then, or did that whole fiasco convince you guys, "Oh, maybe we need to do this".

Planned, but shelved. Was brought up again earlier this year.

Reading the CM has made it clear the DICE is entirely focused on Clone Wars content, which isn’t bad. Are you guys working on anything non clone wars? Like skins for Luke?

We talk what's next in August.

So in short, they are adding: FELUCIA, THE TX 130, GENERAL SKYWALKER SKIN, THE 41st BATALLION (finally), 212th RECON, and MOTHERUCKING DROIDEKAS.

And more...See the note about August.

Never have I been so wrong, in all my life.

A lesson learned is a lesson earned.

Yup, I need to work on upper body strength. My legs are good, but that's where my focus is.

I run, don't lift.

100%

You enjoy what you want to enjoy. Don't let people tell you that you shouldn't enjoy something.

You do you.
