Actually TG, that just the SSC dio that comes with the Han. I just cropped the picture so it looked better.

I also want to build a dio for all of my Jabba guys.

Its been a little slow for me as far as new additions to the collection go. However, the last couple of days have been tremendous.

First, I get a dirty little droid from the Snow Corp. and today Mr. Hammerhead shows up on my doorstep...

Both are great figures. Mark, thanks for painting up R5 for me mate!!

Thanks guys!

I recieved my Hasbro Death Star Trooper in the mail today. I had some time today and got cracking on him.

I carefully cut the velcro off the shirt and collar. I then replaced the belt and cut the silver boxes down a bit, they are a bit large on the Hasbro version. I had a spare Stormtrooper belt, so I removed the holster and placed it on this belt. Praji gloves(Thanks Mark! ) and Dragon German boots.

The helmet is great, but as many said very big. I think the size actually works. You just need to dremmel quite a bit into the helmet to get it to sit lower. I also had to dremmel off some of the figure head. The chin strap is from a spare Sideshow Rebel Fleet trooper painted black. There you have it...

I am going to do some more touchups and futzing, but I really like the looks of him. I think I may want the helmet to sit a bit lower, may do some more dremmeling. If you can score one of these off ebay, do it. Its a fun mod!!

 

[barryo]

love it.................very sharp.............

 

[enaud]

Wow,who ever you got the DST off ebay from didn't waste anytime getting him in the mail....

...& you didn't waste any time knocking this project out.Great job as always Chris.
