Star Wars Clone Wars Vulture Droid and Magnaguard Fighter Vehicles

By Top Star Wars Toys, August 13, 2010 Star Wars Videos

 

Two new vehicles! Well, new as of this video. The Vulture Droid transforms from “flight” to “ground” modes, has a pop-up head, and firing rockets. As an added bonus, there are four rockets stored in the wings. The Magnaguard droid is a purple wonder. Not only does it have a stunning paint job, but it has seating for one pilot figure, and places to store the Magnaguard Droid action figure’s (sold separately) weapons. Both are a little light, but the engineering was quite well done. Available for order at Entertainment Earth… as of this posting.

Hey I`ve got the Obi Wan figure on it`s original tri-logo card! I`ve only got two figures on there original cards so I`m surprised it might be rare. I could have given you a better picture if I`d have known.

good question. I don’t really have a specific figure I collect. But I do get on little kicks where I collect nothing but figures for a while, or then vehicles, then playsets and so on until it cycles over again. oh and I also have the orange carded linebacker leia. it seems as though the whole potf2 line was on steriods. great show

Another great show. As for the QOTW, all vintage, but mainly Fett, Ree-Yees, Bossk, and the Ewoks. I only have three modern R2-KT (for what it was made for), the Animated Fett and the Star Wars Saga Collection Bossk. I might dive into all the figures that came with the coins.

Cool series. Really digg the set, too.

It’d be cool to put the topic of the video in the title, for example, “VSWW – 12 Back Obi-Wan Kenobi”

rather than just “Episode 9″, for if one was scanning through your videos and wanted to watch something specific.

Rock it!

That’s SO funny, because Princess Midori was telling me just the other day that she thought that the orange carded Leia looked like a “pissed off ape”! LMFAO!

I call that Leia, “monkey-face Leia”! LOL

I would also have to agree. Mondays are always the worst day of the week for me. I love coming home from work and unwinding by watching the show. Keep up the great work.

I’ve always liked Luke from Return of the Jedi. That was one of my favorite figures as a kid and one of only two of my original figures I still have today. Also, it is a figure with lots of variations with sewn cap, snap cape, moulded head, blue lightsaber, green lightsaber, so it seems like a good choice. So far I have 4 loose vintage lukes, 1 in kenner baggie, two rotj carded, and an original kenner shipping box that had 96 vintage carded Luke Jedi figures. To bad it didn’t come full :)

I’m even going to get one of the orange carded POTF2 Leia figures from 1995.

I like to call that one “Linebacker Leia”! LOL

It’s such a TERRIBLE looking figure!

I like the NEW Sith (Like Darth Bane and ect.) action figures and have been trying to get all that I can when I can find them.

Great show, keep them coming.

While he wasn’t one of my favorite characters in the movies, Yoda WAS one of my favorite figures to play with when I was a kid.

I thought he was really cool because he came with so many accessories….. a cloth robe, a belt, a cane, and a snake that hung on his neck.

I need to talk to Princess Midori about doing a give-away contest for a vintage Yoda figure. It’s still one of my favorites to this day.

We are SO glad to hear you guys saying this, because when we first decided to do a weekly SW show we really didn’t know if anybody would watch it at all. Let alone LOOK FORWARD to it every week! LOL

I think this weeks question was a good one!
For my answer it would be
Luke Skywalker! He’s been my favorite ever since I was little. Second would be Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker.

According to starwars.wikia(dot)com, Lobot was born a human who underwent “cyborg augmentation” and his brain was linked to Cloud City’s central computer.
