Infantry Battle Droids:
12 inch Figures
While critics would be quick to
point out a battle droid's mindlessness as a fault, the proponents of the
mechanized soldiers would counter that it is instead a virtue. A mindless
soldier is a loyal soldier, unquestioning of orders, easily controlled, and
absolutely fearless. Battle droids are tall, gaunt humanoids with exposed joints
and bone-white metal finishes that gives them an eerie resemblance to animated
skeletons.
Battle droid infantry is frightening in its uniformity -- only a numerical
marking on the back of a comlink booster pack serves to distinguish one droid
from another. Droids with specialized functions have distinct colored markings
on their armor. Blue denotes pilot droids. Red denotes security droids. Yellow
denotes command droids, which function with increased autonomy compared to the
standard infantry. For the Trade Federation, the battle droid infantry piloted
STAPs, MTTs, and AATs as well as their colossal battleships. For ease of storage
and transportation, battle droids could compress into less than half their size.
Following the Naboo debacle, the Galactic Republic enacted strict legislation
that prohibited the use of battle droid armies. The Trade Federation has shown
its disrespect for Republic law in the past, and for years, many feared that the
numerous foundries scattered throughout the galaxy were still churning out
assembly lines of tireless soldiers.
