Lobot - Lando's aide - ESB

[imperiallandm]

Hello everyone,

Just wanted to show off my Lobot cosplay I've been working on. I have spent several years trying to get the headpiece sorted but I'm now very happy with the finished result. I made the soft parts myself (welding overall suit formed the base) which perhaps aren't the best/have room for improvement, but it's a character I've wanted to play for many many years and I'm pretty happy with the result, which I'm hoping to take to Celebration 2022.

Would love to hear your thoughts/opinions/observations.

EDIT: Forgive the somewhat wrinkled appearance of the suit, I packed this into a carry-on case to a recent Droid Builders UK event so it looks a bit crumpled.

Looks great! It's nice to see one of the more obscure character. Nice work!

I love it. Looks fantastic.

Outstanding! How does that thing stay on your head? Is it like reverse sunglasses?

Just a short strip of 3M VHB tape on the inner rim at the back is enough to keep it firmly in place. There's almost no pressure on my ears. Even with the electronics, it's pretty light weight.

Where did you get the jumpsuit & shirt? Did you make it?

Yes, the jump suit started as a welding overall and the shirt was modified by me also.

Really well done sir! Looks awesome
