1/6th R1-G4 custom project 98.5% complete :)

[FLOSI]

It's been a long wait but this thing has been worth it OT. You did a magnificent job.

 

[OT Freak]

Thanks guys, he's not done yet.

98.5% And Looking Great!!!!

 

[OT Freak]

Hey guys, ummm I have fallen on hard times and I'm thinking about selling R1. I spent so much time on him he's almost priceless to me, but does anyone have any idea what I could ask for him?

 

[OT Freak]

No thoughts on the matter?

 

[FLOSI]

Well, you may never be able to recoup all the time and effort you put into this, OT.... Just pick and price, post in the commerce section and say that you're also taking reasonable offers.

 

[OT Freak]

Yeah I know I wont even come close. I should just keep him. Besides I still need to make the Sandcrawler treads for the back drop.

 

[barryo]

i missed that post about you thinking of selling it.....

seems like you could never recoup your R&D on these kind of projects but you could estimate from your materials & time..........if you kind of keep track.........because not only is the product worth something but your time as well..........

saying all that.............keep it if you can swing it............hand it down to your future kids, grandkids, .......

Great job on this enigmatic droid! One of my favourites in the series, probably because he says so little and looks poisonous. Good luck on the sale if you have to resort to that!

Thanks dude, no he's not for sale. I love this droid too much and when I look at it I go how the hell did I do it? I really want to keep building, but I can't get myself into it.

 

[OT Freak]

Nope R1 is staying. Too much time an effort into this guy.

..............he wasn't the first nor will he be the last to do so.

glad you kept your R1-G4...........

 

[galactiboy]

And its not a rip-off... I think its called "paying homage"

So am I. No one would pay what I wanted anyways.
