What's on your bucket build list?

My good new found friend, Mr.Halliwax is the trouble maker that introduced me to this site. We met on astromech.com while posting about our R2 builds. I asked a question about lightsabers, he led me here, and that's all she wrote.

With all of our conversations, he inspired me to come up with this topic.

Anyway, I notice alot of us tend to speak of our other projects while referencing current builds. So I had a fun idea to play nosey and see what others are doing and what is on the builders bucket list.

Mine is.

Sabers- ANH Luke, Obiwan. , ESB Vader, ROTJ Luke. Then I added Kylo's, Rey, TFA Luke and V2 hero

Blasters - ANH E-11, DL44, ESB Luke, ROTJ EE-3 , may end up with Rey and Jyn's , but not sure just yet.

Helmets - ANH sandtrooper, Lukes x wing, tie fighter and Vader. ESB snowtrooper ROTJ Boba Fett. Added, Kylo, TFA stormtrooper

Droids- R2D2 full RC and 1:1 scale. C3po head, maybe upper torso to look like a full scale bust. Mouse droid.

Odds and ends- jedi training remote, thermal detonator , added rogue one hard drive and disk, Jyn's pendant necklace, maybe Rey's staff

Others- classic - 60's batman cowl, batphone, utility belt, Catwoman mask and ears, necklace, dart gun. Shakespeare bust. Maybe penguin's monoclonal and top hat, riddler's mask with robin's.

Not much has been added to my bucket list since I started it some years back. The batman list hasn't changed at all. The star wars list did end up with minor additionals. Notice there is no mention of any props from the prequels, but a few from the sequel's. Weird I know, but for some reason, the new stuff grabs my attention more.

What's yours?

Welcome aboard,Kevin.Eventhough I appreciate the Star Wars franchise (in particular the 80s movies),my bucket list concerns Marvel only,so I'll save that for a different section
I hope you'll enjoy yourself here

Thanks, but I have been working here for a little over a year now. Most of the pieces listed above have been completed or started. Or sitting in boxes waiting their turn.

I am more of a DC guy however, if I jump on the band wagon, I would fancy the Avenger's props. I see a lot of potential there as well as fun.

I would love to see wip shots of the speeder bike. I have seen a builder use a jet ski body for the base however, I'm not sure about the jet ski that was used.

I've not looked deeply into it as yet, collected photos and stored them on my build laptop ( stops the wife from deleting of the every day comp ) got some older SW books stored in the loft somewhere, but every time I see one I always get an itch to start
 
Pardon me. So what's on the good doctors bucket list :lol

but I'm confused? i thought a bucket list was a list of things you want to accomplish in life? if this is the case then what i type below is my list. if a bucket list is a list of all my unfinished projects.. holy crap where do i begin.. well i better first get things done around the house before i start any of my shelved prop projects..

No matter if "WIP", "Want to", "Started", "Remade", "Whatever" ....... mostly real stuff from the OT, and way to much to list or even remember. :facepalm

That´s what i already have bought (or started buying major parts), not talking about stuff i will buy in future without even knowing when i may find time to start it (and i´m not talking about finishing anything anytime "in time" :lol )
 
you know i love you ;)

but I'm confused? i thought a bucket list was a list of things you want to accomplish in life?

Yes, however this is the builders bucket list :thumbsup

Nice list. I watched a BTTF marathon yesterday. I can see a lot of fun builds there.
 
I'm just going to post Star Wars only related ones since it's the Star Wars subforum.

Current builds:
-Poe Dameron X-Wing Pilot costume
-remaking Han Solo ESB jacket (in charcoal and without a functional zipper for trooping) and pants for Rebel Legion standards
-reinstalling and upgrading Graflex 2.0 internals with a GOTH 3D chassis and 1" blade holder

Future builds:
-Cassian Andor costume
-Roman Obi-Wan hilts, both the MK1 and Inception. I'm buying one of those this year for sure.
-TGS Graflex build once the thing ships and I figure out which of the many nice looking crystal chamber 3D printable chassis to choose from
 
Lets see if I can remember it all...

Projects that I have started collecting parts for:
ANH DL-44 Hero
Greedo Killer

I have a whole lot of props sitting around in my garage/drawers, I will get around to them one day :)

currently WIP - EP3 Clone Trooper helmet, most of the priming/sanding has been done, almost ready for painting now

other things waiting for my attention

Lightsabers:

once I finish off the ep3 clone helmet, I can start working on the sabers, also brought some kits from Roy so it should be a quick job :)

bucket list:

Helmet - Fett, Biker Scout, Royal Guard

lightsaber - Mace Windu, Quinlan Vos, A'Sharad Hett (if I could ever find them)

oh, and I have got literally a garage full of Gundam/Macross model kits spanning over the last 30 or so years, chances are I will never get through half of them before I die :)
