I never would have guessed that the spacefarers bots would work out so well. (I have a couple of their jetcycles, obtained without knowing the scale difference. Great stuff!

It certainly has a SW medical droid resemblance, but with a differentquality, some retro vibe that makes it so special. I love it!Suberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02005091019027411799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560709119022789110.post-1447150570877774922022-09-30T20:39:45.319+01:002022-09-30T20:39:45.319+01:00No problem - I'll happily take some pics and w...No problem - I'll happily take some pics and will share my thoughts!axiomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11598298167403563382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560709119022789110.post-77491021233191640552022-09-30T20:34:01.238+01:002022-09-30T20:34:01.238+01:00Hey Axiom Thanks for posting this I'm starting...Hey Axiom Thanks for posting this I'm starting to collect 40/ 42mm figures for scifi gaming (star wars really) I'd be keen to see what other figures in your collection would work in that scale (1/43rd or so).

I'm 100% with you that scale doesn't really matter for robots (or aliens for that matter).axiomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11598298167403563382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-560709119022789110.post-13660911453898145662022-09-30T13:35:07.246+01:002022-09-30T13:35:07.246+01:00Interesting models.
