    Whether you hate them or love them, battle droids did make large appearances in the PT. So I thought I would ask everyone what their favorite is. My picks are Super Battle Droid and Droid Tri-Fighter. I couldn't include all the droids in the poll but I may make another thread about battle droid vehicles or just vehicles in general in the PT.

    Love them all,sorry:D.And the CGI used to create them.
    (BTW it's not Magan,but Magnaguard;I'm nitpicky;))
    They were real threats to the protagonists.Well,Battle Droids weren't always for the Jedi.

    Oops, good grief just needed to add one A and scrunch it together. [face_blush] :rolleyes: Hopefully the mods can fix it as I can't seem to edit the poll.

    I always thought the Droideka's were pretty cool...no nonsense killing machines with shields.

    When I was a kid I found Droidekas cute in the sense of how someone can see a kitten or a puppy as cute

    I still do to a degree.... precious little psychotic droid murderers <3

    Yeah ok don't ask. I won't pretend to understand it if you don't

    Wonder why the OG-9 Homing Spider never, appeared in TCW. They can bring Darth Maul back to life but don't include the OG-9!

    Agreed, I actually like them better then the tri-droids who did appear in TCW. Hmm, now I'm seriously thinking about eventually making a thread for PT vehicles.
    Unless of course there has been one made already and hasn't been locked yet.

    Destroyer Droids/Droideikas, for sure. Just a very striking, creative design. And I feel like it was quite the impression-maker back in 1999 cause it's the first thing we see that's way beyond the visual spectrum of the OT.

    I like the battle droids and super battle droids the best, as I find their dialogue amusing. Actually, I find them funny in general.

    Battle droids, because they're funny. Especially in TCW.

    As for infantry, the super battle droids and droidekas

    As for vehicular droids, I'd say the tri-fighters, hailfire droids and spider droids

    I like the Magna guards, they actually hold some feat of strength against the Jedi (however short the fight is, atleast they don't just get chopped down.)

    They have an awesome weapon, their staffs are pretty cool and look pretty. They also slightly remind me of the T-800's in the Terminator, which is another movie close to my heart.

    I love the plain old Battle Droids. Their charm and the amazing way they were realised in TPM bring back a lot of nostalgia.

    I don't know why but I always liked how the vulture droids were designed. They have versatility as well with there fold in fold out legs.

    I liked alot of the droids before ROTS came out and made them silly. Droideka would be a fav I guess because they didn't have a voice change. :p
