Re: 1/6th Scale Battle Droid

What am I going to do with the 10 or so Hasbro droids I have? Bust a few up for battle damage? Hope the Ep1 Obi-Wan is coming soon! More Ep 1 please.

Re: 1/6th Scale Battle Droid

We just bought a new house 4 years ago. And I had the library turned into my room. I'm running out of space already.

Those pics are almost two years old now and I've added so much more...maybe it would be better to just buy a house for all the collectibles.

I concur.

Yeah, I remember you talking about it on one of the SSC chats (SDCC or Spook). I'm not sure what you could move out, either. Like I've said before, I'll hold onto your Speeder Bike if you like.

Re: 1/6th Scale Battle Droid

Looks like our man Silent Sufer painted these bad boys

I did paint the prototypes, but funny thing is these are the actual production pieces you're looking at. The protos weren't as fully engineered as these, and my paint apps were overkill screen accurate. The apps were simplified on these so that they could easily be customized by collectors, and used as the base for later variations of Droids. Very smart thinking by Sideshow IMO.

I painted one other version that I think may also be at SDCC, but not sure. One thing is for sure. You haven't seen the last of the Battle Droids.

Thanks for always giving us tidbits into what you worked on, SilentSurfer. I love how some of the artists frequent these boards. Very cool of you all!

Re: 1/6th Scale Battle Droid

Well, I ordered the exclusive set. Hadn't planned in it, but I did.

That they can completely fold up is pretty cool. And they must balance pretty well if they don't need stands.

Re: 1/6th Scale Battle Droid

I was going to buy two but was ecstatic when I saw it was a two pack and for an awesome price. I only wanted two Battle Droids but I'll buy alternate color schemes if they release them. I hope if they intend to release a yellow, red and blue ranked battle droid, they do them either separately or maybe bundle a red and blue ranked one together as I don't need two reds or two blue.

Yikes, no stands at all. That's going to make me a bit nervous in displaying them.

I'll keep that in mind.

You're welcome. For me personally, I started here, and if it weren't for some of the commissions I got from Freaks I may not have a lot to show Sideshow to get them to enlist my painting talents. So, thank all of you as well. I'm a Freak too.

You HAVE to keep your Bike. That thing looks awesome in your room!

Re: 1/6th Scale Battle Droid

I originally had no interest in any PT battle droids, but these came out fantastic. And 2 for the price is great. Nabbed a set.

Can't wait to see C3P0 and R2D2!!!!

Re: 1/6th Scale Battle Droid

Not going to get them, as not much of a 12" collector, but they do look really cool...glad they don't have a voice chip

I didn't know that. Very cool!

If someday I decide to get back into the arts, and you're still around and you don't mind, I may have to pick your brain for some things.

Re: 1/6th Scale Battle Droid

Got my EX set ordered

Now, SilentSurfer, you've definitely got me curious as to what else might be unveiled that would blow away the Dewback...
