I like the fact that the Episode One Collection OOM-9 action figure has a retractable neck. Whereas some other Battle Droids can be folded up to simulate them in sleep mode before the Trade Federation has activated them, OOM-9's retractable neck arguably allows you to recreate the scene after the young Anakin Skywalker has destroyed the Trade Federation mothership and all the Battle Droids simultaneaously shut down. Also, including the binoculars for the OOM-9 figure was a nice touch even though the mould is quite basic.

When compared to other Battle Droid Commander action figures that have been released, only the OOM-9 figure has the black stripes on the back of his yellow head gear.
We first see one of these Battle Droid sargeants leading a small company of Battle Droids aboard the Trade Federation cruiser at the start of The Phantom Menace when Nute Gunray sends them to mop up the remains of Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan whom he thinks he has just poisoned with the gas dioxis.
All Star Wars action figures, vehicles, collectibles and Star Wars toys shown on this website are the 3.75 inch scale and from my own private Star Wars collection unless otherwise stated. Where possible original vintage accessories have been used but in some instances I have placed Kenner Star Wars figures with either reproduction weapons and accessories or for Hasbro figures close approximations have been used. This is mostly the case for modern Star Wars lightsabers where the correct item can be very difficult to identify on some ocassions. Vintage Star Wars action figures are shown with their original weapon or accessory when I have them. When a vintage Kenner action figure is shown with an accessory which is not original I have tried to point this out where possible.
All of the Star Wars action figures shown were purchased second hand, usually incomplete, and in bulk. They have been reunited with their original weapons and accessories where we could get hold of them.
