Hehe, I personaly like the battle droid "figs" but the legs would be ALOT
beter if they wern't attached together... Now the alien figs, that's another
story, LEGO could have done better.  I'd think they'd look rather robotic
with those BD parts, but I have no LOM sets yet so I can't be sure...

whole class of figures.  I can't bring myself to call them "minifigs".

Possible alternatives:
suckifigs
suckrofigs
manglefigs
uglyfigs

Any others?  Any previous discussion?

(...) Just an FYI, Only the torso and arms are Battle Droid parts. The Legs are actually more organic and bent at the knee. The are still fuzed like the BD lets though. Eric Kingsley The New England LEGO Users Group (URL) (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.year.2001)
