I'm afraid I can't help you on the arms, last thing I've heard the moulds are bust... but you could pm mic and see what he says. The hands came with the arms and both are display only.

Very Nice display. I'm Jealous
I love this collection. I really love your cabinets. The way you have them arranged works wonderfully.
Excellent!!!!!!!!!!
Wish I had gotten that Life Size Salacious when he came out.
I'm sorry, but yep, you missed out. It's a beautiful piece and one of the few licenssed pieces where there is no fanmade version that's ten times better. At least not that I know of...
Plus, unlike most other Sideshow stuff, the price was not to bad.R2Dan said:
Saw one for $500 on Ebay a while back but got snagged. Only other one has been at $1,400 forever., It ain't that cool.
You got it all! Quality stuff all expertly displayed. As you well know, sometimes the time it takes to display stuff nicely takes longer than making the prop
Thanks for sharing. It inspires me to get more organization in my display.
I got this poster today... it's a bootleg, and not the best quality print ever, but I think it rounds off the Vader display quite nicely. What do you think?
Dan how did I miss this thread. Your stuff looks so expertly displayed. Everything gels so well together. Very classy buddy. I love it

R2Dan, where'd you get the RD knitted cap? I'd like to rock one of those in the winter time.
It was made for me by a friend. The pattern can be found online, that much I know. She did quite a few of those, but it's been a while...
Ben: Thanks for the praise mateI'm glad people like it as much as I do, means I must have done something right
Edit: Here's Vader with the poster in daylight:

Another small update: 3PO is now golden and dirty to go with my weathered R2
That is a great collection and really displayed well.
Thanks for sharing that.
Cool progress on the 3PO!
Is it chromed and then weathered or all done with paints?
Anyway...great setup
Markus
It's all painted.
I think I will eventually get him chromed, but for now this finish will do the job nicely I'd say
Wow, the r2 and 3pO need a thread all on their own. Great job on the weathering and paint work for C3pO, care to share wait paint you used for him?
C3PO looks great with R2!!! Great work! I love your collection
I used chrome paint found in the local DIY store. Nothing too fancy really. It's not a real substitute for chroming, but it'll do for now until I get the funds together to get him finished properly
Man, I want a Selacious too xD Where did you ever find that?
It was released by Sideshow a few years back. Strictly limited to 600 pieces and tough to track down now. But worth it
WoW...great collection and a very, very nice display. Congrats R2Dan
Your Driods are awesome
nice and classy display, congrats

Jealous
Don't be... it's all just the result of dedication/addiction to Star Wars and a good few years of collecting.
I dug out this old pic from 2007, where it all began for me (my first R2 is on that pic, which is where it all started, and a lot of other - amateurishly - selfmade props.
Not quite as impressive
Fast forward to now and you see where I'm at. All it takes is a mind mad enough to put together a proper tribute to your favourite movie(s)
Amazing, R2Dan you have a fantastic collection, beautifully displayed.
My jealousy of your lifesize C-3PO & R2-D2 knows no bounds,
I have to limit myself to one or 2 props on display in the house at a time, currently a Graflex ESB & a Luke ROTJ Shared stunt sat on top of my wife's piano,
the rest are away in boxes even my new signed vader helmet went straight away
I guess I can't complain my wife puts up with the 17 guitars I have dotted around the house,
maybe I should have 1 hobby at a time, maybe not
