Long long LONG time lurker here... I just ordered one of these last week - I am just crazy excited about it! (am trying so hard to be patient!)
Has anyone put electronics in their Rescuer yet?

Weathering almost done on the rescuer kits! Just one more control box to go. Painting to come soon!

What gold did you use on the neck?

What gold did you use on the neck?

Transparent brass, I believe.

Having gotten it back in hand, makes me feel like a kid on Christmas! haha. I had always liked the V2 a smidge more than the Hero design when it came to Luke’s saber (mainly bc the Hero was technically not *THE* actual prop in Mark’s hand most of the time) but ever since Mando S2 finale, I’ve grown to have a newfound appreciation for it, and this rendition is everything I could want. Truly fantastic work from all involved, and certainly one of my most prized possessions!

(Side note - I need more stands!)

Did you paint the neck section? I have actually been looking for a gold paint like this for another project and have not had much luck. Any direction you can point me in to getting the paint that was used on that neck would be GREATLY appreciated :0

I decided to go for powder coat instead of paint. I’m pretty happy with how it turned out.

 

[marker2037]

Looks great! I still have to paint mine. I've been very distracted lately.

Can’t say how much I stress this, once they are gone they are gone
