Piececool finally dropped some more information, and more photos, on the Star Wars droid models. They are scheduled for release on the 13th of August, so I would expect to see them showing up on AliExpress and other online stores shortly after that. But the part I was most interested in was the additional photos, […]
Build: Droid Pack Duo
Why yes, I did just build an Artoo for my 300th build. I thought I’d build the R2-D2 model from the Disney Parks exclusive Droid Pack as a quick bonus follow-up post. But as it turns out, R2-D2 and BB-8 share 4 sheets between them, and a single set of instructions, so I figured, why […]

I’ve been suspicious that something new would drop soon, thanks to Galaxies Edge opening. And it cometh. Now, while we already have 5 of these droids as models already, these are all new […]
