Looking forward to seeing your progress on this.

Those droids never got the respect I think they deserved!

Awesome, I am looking forward to seeing this. Great Droid to make. I have always wanted a decent sized model of one myself (the ones I see are always a bit small) but I never thought about a 1:1:thumbsup

To me it is a droid that is a drone Ay old thing can be a drone, but only a droid makes this quality of drone.:love

No idea what it is? It's either Huey, Dewy or Louie from a great scifi film, Silent Running. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silent_Running

Very cool, these robots were some of my Fav frtom back in the day. I think prior to Star wars it was the most inovative robotic design done to date. Good luck wit hthis going to be watching this thread with great intrest and admiration. :thumbsup
