Quoted from pipes:

I'll never understand the fascination with toppers. Most are just cheap flat plastic with redundant artwork like this piece of crap. Please.

I agree with most of this. However, adding animation does add another element in bringing a game to life. I think we all agree that the BKSoR topper is bad ass, and SW is cool in nature and piss poor in price and execution (they used Sharpee for detail lines on R2D2 FFS!). Movement and interaction are something really unique if someone wants that. But more flat plastics and repetition of logos is weak.

Quoted from kermit24:

Makes the $750 R2D2 look like a deal. $1K is just too much.

lol that extra $250 gets you a more detailed techodrome instead of a silver plastic bowl with sharpie and horribly placed stickers to emulate R2D2. Obviously worth every cent.

Quoted from J85M:

I said that about 6 months ago maybe more, re-theme BKSOR topper to Shredder with bebop and rocksteady in the background instead of the fiery castle gates and the technodrome as the background!

But why do all that when you can just print some flat plastics, make a tiny eye move, and charge $600 more than the BKSoR topper?

Quoted from daveyvandy:

Lol, it was probably around $300-400 total.
The expensive part was the scale model figures - they are about $40-50 each.
But, I put Krang in the machine and he looks awesome.
Plus, you get all of the other mods like the pizza slices, turtle-comms, and weapons.
All this tilting and nudging and they haven't fallen down since August
