R2D2 Fett's Blog

This is just to post updates on my various projects, like my full sized R2D2, my Han Solo in carbonite, my Boba Fett, Yoda, C3PO......AND the finishing of our basement (and home theater)or anything else that I might think is interesting enough to post.

Threepio Head....and a Challenger!

Did some more work to Threepio's head...have the eys left to do. Will be getting a better gold paint soon, but this works for now. I also have some lights for his eyes on order...



I also assembled a cardboard kit for a Battle Droid. Went together very well..great design!!!!!!!

Man that Battle Droid looks cool! How thick is the cardboard? Is it sturdy? Looks very authentic! C3PO looks great too!!!

Hahahaha..as soon as I put that droid together I was looking forward to seeing your reaction! :)

I got it on ebay..cardboard kit. They have one for a pit droid, droideka and an R2 also. The Droideka looks pretty cool, but too big for my house...I'm already pushing my luck!!

Hehe..yeah I kept searching ebay "battle droid cardboard" or just "battle droid".

I do recommend it...they do come up from time to time, there was a thread discussing them on the RPF. I was very close to one that was both battle droid and droideka, but they didn't ship to canada.

Good luck man. It will be a fun diversion for you!
