the parts for this were all taken from two droids... the IG lancer droid and the TCW IG-86 assassin droid.
Preferably I wanted to use a VOTC IG-88 instead of the lancer droid, but I couldnt find one....
so... preferably the recipee would be:
VOTC IG-88:
head, torso, shins, feet, misc. greeblies, bandolier, guns, accessories
IG-86 assassin droid:
Arms, hands, knee's and shins. (see below image)
the knee's of the assassin droid became the hip joint for the ig-88 because when the original's swivel hips were removed the resulting socket was a perfect fit for the leg of the animated assassin droid. The assassin droid's leg was cut about 2cm above the knee and this was inserted into the socket of the IG-88's old swivel hip. Then the animated figure's ankle socket became the knee socket. The original IG-88's thigh armor and greeblie pieces where then trimed up to fit over this new thigh/hip piece...
make sense?
