The speeder/trailer

Turret on trailer

Droid rack on the trailer

a shot showing everything

The speeder/trailer/turret/droid rack is all together 70 pieces.I wanted to do a clone wars droid BP as they have not released one yet, also it includes some useful pieces.

Shop At Home description:

"As the separatists advance through the battles the droid speeder and powerful removable ion turret aid the separatists in conquering republic worlds. Remove the turret and attach the droid rack to take the battle droids into battle."

hope you enjoy

Nice use of the Sep Shuttle. I really like this one. It's like a light wieght ion cannon. It can hover around and take out descent sized ships. I would get this bp for sure.

This is a pretty cool BP. Good use of SNOT.

Maybe it should come with more minifigures? I notice that most droids BP come with more than 4 droids.

You need to deeplink your pics.

Right click on the picture, copy the pictues url

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3447/3885598412_a2eb53fe6c.jpg

and paste it into image-brackets.

Like this:

And you'll get this:

Make sure you don't use the url in the menu, as it isn't useable for deeplinks.

It's a clever idea. The cannon is well constructed, and the trailer is good thinking. Would certainly buy it!

And by the way, you're not using SNOT, you're 'tiling' which is a little different as SNOT means Studs - Not - On - Top.

it looks really nice especially the turret at the back. Your minifig selection is good with just the one thats different. Your tiling is good and I like you didn't veer away from the traditional CIS colours.

Good Luck!

I agree, that makes the BP all the more better.

It's also nice that this isn't too similar to the official droids BP. The trailer is great that it can double up as gunning station or droid carrier.
