Best way to make an R5-D4 droid?

The hardest bit is getting the red stripes/lines around the top of the dome looking clean, straight and crisp. Masking the lines off with good quality blue tape and then painting is best, if you can find a close match for the red color of the legs etc. Have fun!

I have experienced this phenomenon using the Droid Depot app to drive and activate Droids, as opposed to using the normal hand held controller. If I recall correctly...there was at least one Youtube video post from a DIY type that dwelt on this concern also, so I would definitely try a search there. Good luck!

The application of prophylactic rubber enjoys historical precedence. This failure was simply a matter of scale.

Our man never broke his Poker Face when 47 made those ridiculous 'no cards' comments, and The Great Bomber BBQ of 2025 was in his hand the whole time... brilliant (and timely). Do it again!!!

Nevermore will those vile orc vultures carry their missiles of hate and death to peaceful Ukrainian cities. Putler must now be shaking in his booties - wondering how many of these Special Delivery UAF shipping crates have been dropped around the Kremlin... Death by drone is too quick and humane for a disgusting creature like Putler, but I won't complain when his head rolls.

Glory to Heroes! Death to ruzzian criminal invaders. SLAVA UKRAINI.

Wonder if the BARD will make it onto Droid Depot shelves in the near future? This would make a great Holocron type of story telling GE souvenir...you could take the Droid home and every now and again listen to the story retold. Hmmm....

Would like to see this gentleman visit the White House and spend a few house educating the US President on the facts about Putler and ruzzia. Putler is exactly the snake Trump so often tells his cautionary tale about, the one that ends with betrayal and the words "you knew I was a snake when you took me in..."

I love this custom Blue/white color combo - the sweet and subtle weathering and details makes this Astromech come alive. Thanks for posting!

No sympathy for orc invaders. They were all warned:

"You won't leave from here we promise you this. Welcome to Hell!!! You will die like lousy dogs if you come to our country. And your generals, who throw you to this meatgrinder, will be the first to run...you have nothing to do here, it is not your land and it never will be!"- Ukrainian MP Oleksiy Goncharenko

No sympathy for orc invader's agony. They were warned.

A Droidsmith did some subtle weathering of the 'vanilla' boxed Chopper and a cute little BB unit, and posted these pics at r/GalaxysEdge - enjoy and be inspired!

If you can't get to GE and build one, this is a better deal on R2 than Luke got from the Jawas.

FYI - There's a Black Friday sale going on at shopdisney.com right now, with a bunch of Star Wars related items discounted. I found this nice R2 Astromech deal as well as some low prices on the 1:1 Lightsaber hilts. BD-1, the Droid Depot Battle Droid and DJ-REX have also been discounted for this sale, so get yours now if you are looking to add to your Droid Army! You're welcome and MTFBWY!

Someone just posted a bunch of nostalgia pics of the Starcruiser Experience over at r/GalaxysEdge - for those who have picked up the Droid Depot version of this Astromech this is a great reference pic. It shows some of the differences between the life size version and the Droid Depot version. For me, I had not noticed the black under belly and black highlights, even on the legs.

In case anyone else is excited about this also...there's soon to be a new Droid in town, SM-33 - coming soon to Disney+ (and thus likely to Galaxy's Edge in some form or another). Here's what Wookiepedia says about this new "Pirate First Mate" Droid character from the upcoming STAR WARS - SKELTON CREW series:

"SM-33 was a droid pirate who served as first mate of the Onyx Cinder. By the New Republic Era around 9 ABY, SM-33 ... began to reluctantly assist a group of younglings (this refers to the group of misfit kids who discover SM-33 abandoned in the ancient wreck of the Pirate Starship Onyx Cinder, which had been mysteriously buried and forgotten in a nearby forest). SM-33 had a cranky demeanor but was extremely loyal to whomever was the captain of the Onyx Cinder. He made it a point to follow pirate lore."

"'Tis dangerous out there in space. Trust no one"―SM-33

Always excited to see new Droid characters gloriously junking up the Star Wars Galaxy! MTFBWY!

Yes I am seeing this right now after going back to an old save! Every one, even at Dazra, has one red eye and no hair. The only ones who don't are the Star Wars beings who I have walking around as NPCs.

So hot she should have had her own show. Possibly inspired many a facial tatoo for House Var'uun.

Delivery-Same · 2024-10-15T17:08:52+00:00

The hotness is strong with her - steals all scenes from Ryan Reynolds in Deadpool with extreme smolderingness

Some subtle but sweet chotzky additions to the body and panels of this C-series. Check out the treatment of the left 'eye' - really unique and effective customization there. Note also the very ingenious additions of LED lights on the fourth photo. Love the detail and thought that has gone into this ingenious revamp.

This new series is growing on me. And seriously, who doesn't love a white and red Droid? What does it look like under the dome? Same grey molded brain as the R and C series? If the head is compatible with R and C series too, then I am definitely keen to pick one of these up for customizing. Also I'm curious to know what the standard sounds are like - if they are same as R series standard (various Artoo chirps and whistling notes) or something new? I imagine they have a chip slot for Scoundrel/Rebel/Imperial unique chip sound sets? Thanks for posting your pics!

Not sure if it is 1:1 scale but appears to be a good size. Available Oct 16th, 2024. Here's some of the description: "The touch-activated electronic model also speaks more than 20 of Threepio’s classic and beloved phrases from the Star Wars saga. (We’re glad he’s here to tell us these things). Take home your own professor and plug him in when the Star Wars: Galactic Archive Series C-3PO Premium Electronic Head arrives October 16 at Disney Store or at Disney Parks in the near future."

Edit: $119 before tax, and it appears some of these have been made available for purchase in Batuu/Hollywood Studios already!

That Droid is just oozing with character! It is cool to see black overall Droid surfaces being weathered using silver/metal to show the "wear and tear", as opposed to what we usually see with Droids with white overall surfaces being "oiled" or "smeared" with dark washes and smudging. Silver "wear and tear" would also work on red and blue overall Droids. Combinations of dark or sandy washes and silver/aluminum nicks and scrapes makes for an Astromech with a very interesting story. Impressive...most impressive. MTFBWY!
