The DroidDK is older and started at the same price point as the DarksideDK.
Since then it has slowly dropped in price. Perhaps the same will happen to the
DarksideDK, we can only hope ;-)


Unless there's something in the Darkside kit that I'm totally missing (I
don't have one myself, I always thought it was the same thing as a DroidDk)
like maybe it actually gives you access to the Darkside for real (which of
course would be cool only if you've chosen the dark path of course...)

Us of purer hearts wonder why it costs more though...does anyone have both
and could explain it?

Is the Scout somehow different?

It is a different color.

Do you get a working light saber or
something? Does the AT-AT shoot real lasers?
