Here's a few more pics from the weekend:


At some point I broke out the Ironman suit:








In addition to the giant killer robot, I also had my usual display of prop replicas:


And characters walking around:


There should be video soonish, so stay tuned...

Great build especially with the limited time. The final pose is very dynamic as well. Did he line up with your other suits for a group shot at all ?

After a few gas rest to recover what are you going to come up with next to top this ?

That's a hilarious typo with your current avatar and all.

I've been on this forum a long time, and I've seen some amazing things. Life size landspeeders, a working Tumbler...this ED209 stands right up there with the coolest builds I've ever seen. Outstanding work. And I LOVE the display with the spent brass around it. Awesome. What else is there to say?

Now where are you going to put it?

I'm sure there are plenty of folks who'd be happy to "store" it for you!

I hate to sound ignorant, but what's an FSF Team?

editted for lack of photo

Please tell me you got at least a few pics with the giant killer robot. There was so much to see. Like this warning label above the left toe:


Or this one on the other side:


Now where are you going to put it?

Under cover of darkness, we planted it in the middle of mom's garden:


I think it's a pretty good fit:


This weekend, he'll be in Santa Clara for BayCon. After that, he might be living in the lobby at the MAKE Magazine headquarters for a while until I get around to moving into a bigger place.

Hi T,

FSF is the Full Scale Falcon project. I'm the lead build here in Huntsville, AL and we're biulding a full scale replica of the Millennium Falcon. We've already built the cockpit with center console and even a quad laser. Things are really beginning to "take off". We're gearing up for cockpit 2 - check out the build link below. :)

AMAZING work on ED!

An absolutely amazing build! I've followed from the beginning and learned a lot along the way (Thank you). So did Make magazine foot the bill? or was this just a labor of love?

I'm glad you've enjoyed it. Hopefully you found the videos helpful. I got a bit of cash for writing the accompanying articles, but it didn't come close to covering the cost of the materials.

If you get a moment, make sure to share the videos and add comments saying you want more. I'm in the early stages of convincing them that it's worth doing more series like this one.
