Funko Pop Astromech 3D - Finished printing update.

 The second half [rear] printed great and didn't require much clean-up. The support did come away for the antenna, but it still printed ok.

half sections together

The above picture shows the two half's together....no, your eyes are not playing tricks on you lol, the centre line is angled. I thought the dome and body were all lined up on there plan's, but only the dome was. This isn't a problem though as the side dome rods help hide the join.....plus once painted etc. And the body join line will be hidden once the legs are attached.

And here is the almost finished model. Not glued, just propped up together.

Funko R5-D4 Astromech [3D printed]

I had to get stl versions created for two fellow builders who's droids were not produced by Funko. These will all go up on my Thingiverse page, once they have been printed and checked as OK.

I have also completed the battery box hoses to a more satisfactory (me) standard lol. I forget that once printed, the details that I agonizes over....don't really needed to be worried about.

Battery box hoses

A morning [5 hours worth] working on another dome not produced by Funko, so a bit or artistic licence has been taken :D. Again the body/dome will be one non-bobble head piece. 

It's blue but not R2....??

R6-LE5 dome

The owner was very pleased and will be printing the full droid version soon.

The Rise of Skywalker - Visual Directory

Treated myself to an early Christmas gift, ordered via Prime, it arrived Monday before Christmas.

Another great book, most interested in the droids section, specifically the Astromechs lol.

Force Friday 3 - The Rise of Skywalker - Droid Factory set

So last week was.......

Myself and Paul (and the droids) had planned on attending our local Disney Store, but due to a change of plans, this didn't happen.

Being a droid fan, I was excited to see the new Droid Factory 4 figure set, released (in the USA) in connection with the new film 'The Rise of Skywalker'.

A fellow club member is at Disney and sent these great pictures of the new box set. Thanks to Nik H. D-0 has already been seen, but the other three are 'new' R5-2JE, R6-LE5 & R2-SHP.

And here's the rear of the box.

The rear pictures feature the actual toy figures, rather than in the past, they have shown pictures of the actual droids.

Another group member, let me know that there's a UK Facebook group organising a list to purchase these for UK people, so I should be able to get hold of these in a few weeks.
