    Don't be ashamed, I'm buying them with pride.

    I've only seen Vader and Greivous in stores. And it's not supposed to look like them, it's supposed to be their vehicle. The toys come with little figures of the characters that go inside.

    I saw them last week at Wal-Mart. When I'm just there because I took my mother or my sister to buy something and I'm just aimlessly wandering around, I tend to always take a look in the toy section.

    So Luke pilots an X-Wing that tranforms into a robot version of himself? Thats kinda...weird. Also makes you wonder why a Jedi Knight would need to pilot a robot version of himself. But I doubt the target market for these things would think that or even care. :p

    WAIT WAIT WAIT.

    IROC, please tell me that's not really your desk. Weren't you the one calling people who play XBOX online losers?

    YOU HAVE BURGER KING STAR WARS WATCHES.

    ;) :p

    Well, I was at Wally World yesterday buying some Dog Food and gun oil and I decided to take a stroll down the toy lane.

    Lo and behold, the SW Transformers are there!

    I picked up a Darth Vader, Obi Wan, and Luke for my three boys. You should have seen their eyes light up when they opened their eyes to these toys in front of them! It was like a mini Christmas to them!

    Money well spent!
