3PO bust repainting advice

The Captain · 09-02-2005, 07:49 PM

Hi all.. I'm gong to pass my C3-PO bust to be repainted. the question is, which version do I have done? Or.... do I go with a different protocol droid all together?or do I buy like 10 busts and do 'em all different...?
A little advice??

Wasn't there a weathered Threepio on display in San Diego? It will probably be the next exclusive from Gentle Giant. If I were going to repaint one, I'd probably go for a different droid altogether. The light blue one (I forget the designation) from Hoth in The Empire Strikes Back was a personal favorite. There was also the silver one from Episode I.

MONSTER has his clone army... you could be the first to have a gang of protocol droids

There was also a maroon colored one if I am not mistaken.

..nice pictures..need to watch it again sometime....

K-3P0 would be such an easy bust to paint. And it'd be the first Hoth bust. Go for it!

The Captain · 09-05-2005, 08:09 PM

well... I just won couple of figures on ebay.. looks like I might be breaking out the old checkbook and getting a couple of things done...
Oh.. K3p0 is the first followed by a suprise

Surprises are good.
