GONK! July 1, 2006 This review is about TWO figures: The power droid, better known as the Gonk Droid, and the dreadwell droid. Although you get two figures for the price of one, you're not getting a good deal. For play value, yes, maybe you are, but these droids are not what they seem.
The Power Droid is similar to the gonk droid that came with a Jawa in the Power of the Force line. Notice how the droid came with another figure back then, too. Press a button on the side of the droid to make it "walk". This feature isn't very good, it's "walking" isn't going to get it anywhere, and it cannot even stand on two legs! I don't think gonk droids do much walking, anyway. It also has two attachments that you can stick on top of it's head.
The dreadwell droid isn't really a figure if you think about it, it should be classified as an accessory because it hardly does anything. The wheels don't move, and it doesn't even have any wheels underneath it to make it look like it's moving on it's actual wheels. The bottom of the... um... Neck? Is that it? Anyway, it's head/neck part can swivel around, and that's it. I would rather have a jawa.
The sculpting on these two unimportant figures are okay, and the paint doesn't really stand out or make the figure look any better, it looks just like two old beat up droids.
Overall, I think the Treadwell Droid is only good for display, but the Power Droid is only good to play with! How could such different figures be packaged together? Only Hasbro knows.

You actually get 2 droids with this package. You get the one pictured as well as a very basic droid which basically is a treaded base with a stick on top (it reminds me of a Battle Bot). It's not fancy or anything, but my 4 year old was tickled to have 2 droids to play with. The droid pictured has moving legs. There's a button on his side that you press to make his legs walk.
