Maybe you all know about this, but I did a double-take in Walmart today when I saw SWTOR LEGO kits. I guess there are three of them. And they came out a year ago. Passed me by, I guess. Just was a surreal little moment to see the MMO being given shelf merchandise.
Bio Break
There are also several sets of WoW Megablocks: http://www.walmart.com/ip/Mega-Bloks-World-of-Warcraft-Sindragosa-and-the-Lich-King-Play-Set/21295677
I knew about the WoW toys — and WoW merchandise is a lot more common. Just seemed strange to see something MMOy that wasn’t WoW, y’know?
My only surprise was that you didn’t get bonus Cartel Coins by purchasing the kit. That will probably come soon enough though…
Shocked me at first, but then I realized it’s star wars… there’s probably star wars merchandise from every star wars game in history
You know, I’ve always thought that mount used in the trooper set looks like it should have weapons mounted on it. Good to know that it does, though the followup question is why (other than the lack of mounted combat) we can’t just use em to kill stuff.
I bought the Sith one. Cuz it looks awesome. Also, I may have some issues.
I’ve yet to see them in the store, but supposedly there are a bunch of SWTOR Expanded Universe action figures as well. There is a great lego set right now with sith and republic troopers from SWTOR, about 12 bucks or so, 2 of each type of trooper.
