Star Wars: 22 Products That Prove George Lucas Is A Complete Sell Out

8. The Trade Federation Battle Droids

Same goes for the Federation battle droids. Sheesh. At least clone and stormtroopers are able to actually hit something. Although they have their moments overall the droids are not meant to present any real threat to the Jedi. In the very words of Lucas they don't stand a chance and are cut down like so much walking mechanical butter. Which is exactly what's wrong with them. The forces of antagonism shouldn't be a joke even if it is just a kid's movie. Anakin blows up the spaceship in the sky and they all shut down in another completely horrible plot device. Hey if this one spaceship goes down we lose the war, guys. Like the Gungans, it seems the battle droids and their variations are just there to sell merch.
