Seriously, now that they have released soo much footage and spoilers...

Where are the updates???

Just some new sounds would be cool...

But NOTHING with only a month to go?

Pretty dissapointed in that.

Maybe the mods should move to collectables. As this is a controllable miniature of sorts, I thought I might get a response here...

Didn't a lot of members buy these on force friday?

With all of the nitpicking on this forum, no one else sees this as a bold faced lie?

We can't get 1 small update?

Something?

Anything?




Bueller?


Bueller???

I'd settle for an update that allowed me to download the app and use the thing :cry

I think it was quite sly of them to not make more it more known it would only work on android 4.4.2 or above. A lot of people would never even think to look for that, especially when it just says app controlled.

It is my favourite paperweight though.

by the time I get to have a proper play on it it should be well updated.

Well... there are the "holographic messages" from Threepio, Artoo, Phasma and the stormtrooper... do those count?

Not an excuse, but I imagine at this point they're putting their resources into fulfilling production needs.

But the programmers wouldn't be involved in production. The company should be able to tune its manufacturing AND develop new functions for him (as promised) simultaneously.

By "resources" I meant "money"
