Bandai R4-I9 1/12
I'm calling him R4-NOGO as he is the Droid that always finds himself in the wrong place at the wrong time, hence all the spare parts added to him.
Still a WIP got gadgets, stickers and weathering to go, also thinking about adding more damage and wires. I have only glued the head and main two body halves to reduce seam lines.

Thanks mate
Hopefully my weathering doesn't end up cracking the kit  ::)

I agree this looks so much better than the stock model. Love the dome. Off to share.

Calling R4-NOGO done!!!
Very simply kit to put together, would be great for kids just starting out. Putting a new coat of paint on these Bandai kits really brings them to life

Too fun. The detail (especially the exposed wiring) is really good and the weathering is outstanding.

Your droid saw a lot of action.
The weathering and the wiring looks phenomenal.
