robothut Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 For me the missing back of the head angles and front chin angles are a important part of the look. But we will have to wait and see what Brian has up his sleeve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dratomic Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Love it! Please count me in for one, Brian. It'd be great to display it next to the original prototype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 It reminds me of the Charley robot for some reason. Maybe because it’s white? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we will have to wait and see what Brian has up his sleeve. My thoughts too John. The angles and lines, both front and back, on the original prototype add a sculpted look that is more aesthetically appealing than Brian's initial version. Brian, if you fine tune your design to bring it truer to the original I really believe that the result will be well worth the effort! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian.. Posted January 10, 2021 Author Share Posted January 10, 2021 Yes, I've been working on the final version to address this. The photo and the plain white finish are, in fact, hiding the existing angles but they need accentuating. I've finished the first print and have added some cockpit detail. The canopy will be moulded, rather than the one you see here. The whole canopy and contents can easily be removed and replaced with something else in a few seconds. Not one for mass production, chaps. I'm having a holiday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoboCopy Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 I wasn’t too sure based on the initial photos, but seeing him in action, I must admit, Brian, it’s one of the best recreations you’ve made. (just to confirm that I’m not “psychic”, Brian removed his initial video and reposted a new one below) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Kirk Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 That's got a very nice look. Do the slots in the feet have a function in this version? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
