Re: 2-1B 1:6 scale resin kit. Taking Deposits!

With this project going forward I think it might look pretty cool to make bacta Luke a diaper(using an old Sideshow Luke that has been stripped for parts/outfit. Then source a clear cylinder, throw in diaper Luke and encase him in clear resin. The old figure is a loss anyway and the lousy paint would be irrelevant through the somewhat cloudy resin. Could work...

Looking forward to this. A nice little easter egg for an ESB shelf. Deposit sent!

Looking spectacular Rusty!:clap Thanks for going the extra mile with all the notes/feedback/e-mails!:hi5:

Some questions about printing phase:

1. Will this come as a collection of solid and clear printed parts - ie so for example the upper chest will be one opaque piece and the clear belly another - or is it all going to be printed clear in larger components (ie entire torso + head all one piece) and you paint the portions that aren't see-through.

2. Will the clear belly area be hollow to allow for some people to install the "robot guts" that are visible inside or will it be a solid clear piece with no cavity inside? If it's going to be hollow, will the wall thickness be pretty thin - ie 2mm or so, or thicker, like say 6mm?

3. Is it possible to print the legs "hollow" with a narrow cavity running in the center (maybe 4mm diameter) to allow wiring for anyone who wants to put an LED in the stomach area, or is that going to be too difficult to add?

4. Do the shoulders spin at all, and is it possible to split print the clear neck area in two pieces - ie. a very basic spin joint at the neck ring - so people can either glue it fixed or drill a pin in to enable a head turn, or is that too complex to add?

5. How much deposit do we send you? I must have missed that amount.

Nice J.
Also how tall is this guy? I?m guessing he?s about as tall as Luke. I haven?t rewatched that scene in a while.

Looks fantastic! Deposit sent.

Talibane, deposit is $70.

12" tall at 1:6 scale I'm assuming.

Head and neck will be printed clear, as will torso/chest. The non-clear parts can then be painted

2. Will the clear belly area be hollow to allow for some people to install the "robot guts" that are visible inside or will it be a solid clear piece with no cavity inside? If it's going to be hollow, will the wall thickness be pretty thin - ie 2mm or so, or thicker, like say 6mm?

Yes- it will be a hollow cavity to allow guts to be built/not provided.

3. Is it possible to print the legs "hollow" with a narrow cavity running in the center (maybe 4mm diameter) to allow wiring for anyone who wants to put an LED in the stomach area, or is that going to be too difficult to add?

I will try to print with cavity

4. Do the shoulders spin at all, and is it possible to split print the clear neck area in two pieces - ie. a very basic spin joint at the neck ring - so people can either glue it fixed or drill a pin in to enable a head turn, or is that too complex to add?

yes and yes

5. How much deposit do we send you? I must have missed that amount.

$70 deposit which is %50.

Thanks!

I'd actually want to do all of this so I will wait until answered before P.O.

From waist to top of head will be printed clear, then non clear areas can be painted.

Belly will be hollow allowing guts to be built/added.

Legs will allow for wiring to run up internally.

Shoulders and neck will have 'pins' to allow some posing.

Hope that helps!
Thanks-

Woohoo, so glad to hear that. Thanks!

I'll probably still have to do some surgery on the head so that I can install lights for the eyes, but that shouldn't be too difficult.

Sounds great! Deposit sent from the get-go :D
