January 7, 201015 yr The tactical droid is incredible! Very well done! Does it stay together a bit better now? Gunray is definitely an improvement and the bent BD arm is nice as well. It's great seeing all your other works again, especially Gree. Keep up the excellent work, Penguin!
January 7, 201015 yr Marvelous work, Penguin. It's good to have flashback of your old figs, as they are truly wonderful. And this is only the first part, you say? I can't wait to see part two. -'Skintas
January 7, 201015 yr Um, um, wow, I'm speechless, they are all amazing. I was impressed with the very first clone, but then I got to the Tactical droid and damn, they is just great, it really looks like the real thing. Your models are so accurate, you truely have a gift for customizing figs
January 7, 201015 yr Excellent work and very accurately converted. Well done. I particularly like the Commando Droids and the Tactical Droid is definitely a serious piece of work. If I may offer some advice, one thing I noticed was that the yellow on the Firefighting droids was a little translucent... if you want it to stand out more could I recommend first painting the area that will be yellow in a strong but light colour (such as GW Codex Grey). When painting over this with the yellow it will make it much brighter. I bet you can make some excellent MOC's based on the Clone Wars with so many of the important characters / types represented here. Jasbrick
January 7, 201015 yr Awesome figures The Penguin, They are all great but that tactical droid is the best of them. the Inventor
January 7, 201015 yr Wow penguin you never ceasen to impress me with your customizing skills I marveled at that tactical droid for quite a while nice work!
January 7, 201015 yr Again, your customs are unbeatable. The camouflaged SPD's are the best. Just like all your other customs they are all brilliant. Well Don, can't wait until I see your next batch of custom minifigures.
January 7, 201015 yr Nice work -my favs are Tambor and Clones - tactical droid is nice also -lego should make an official though- but i must say i like more of original Nute and Also Lok Durd would look better with normal legs - skirt is more accurate maybe- but i don't like it's look- however it suits for tambor- lego should make him as official too!
January 7, 201015 yr Wonderful models, as usual! The tactical droid is especially impressive I agree. That must be made of at least 5 custom parts
January 7, 201015 yr Tactical droid. ) Tool me several hours to make. ) I was actually mad when i saw yopu made a tactical droid, as I'vce made one two, and planned to post it on the site, but mine's bricks in stead of a full new mold.
January 8, 201015 yr Ahh! Ive been waiting for this Penguin! Gree and his troops are Lovely! Lok Durd, is really nice! So is Wat Tambor and Nute gunray! The Commando droids are spot on accurate! The Camouflaged B2 battle droids and the Rocket B2 battle droids are Lovely, but the Cold assault battle droids are the best! The Tactical droid Is amazing! I don't know how you made it, but fantastic job! Looking forward to more! CommanderFox
January 8, 201015 yr Great figures,Penguin !I like the commander droid(sorry for asking,but from what kind of material,do you make him?Is it available in Russia?),thought.
January 8, 201015 yr Great figures,Penguin !I like the commander droid(sorry for asking,but from what kind of material,do you make him?Is it available in Russia?),thought. It's Green stuff, I think.
January 9, 201015 yr The bent battle droid arm works really well with the binoculars. I like the B2 battle droid recolours.
January 9, 201015 yr B1 battle droid commander. ) Technically, an OOM series, not B1... But it's my personal fav of the bunch!! Edited January 9, 201015 yr by Legio XIII
January 9, 201015 yr these are simply fantastic! i really like the way you put gree's hair on his head...amazing
January 10, 201015 yr I can't believe I didn't comment on this part, especialy when it's SW only. I must say all of your customs look amazing (although I've already seen some), and your Battle droid inspired me to work further on my own customized B1 and now it's finished. I will post it soon. Your Tactical droid looks awesome too.

January 11, 201015 yr I guess, you're right. ADHO? ) B1s were the standard and less-intelligent battle droids used by the CIS. They didn't have specific programming to a certain task like OOM droids. OOM-series droids were the more-intelligent commanders of the battle droid armies. They were coloured specifically to their purpose, ie. yellow were commanders, blue were pilots, etc. Calling OOMs 'B1s' isn't a big deal as they're physically identical and together are distinguished more from the B2 or Super battle droids. Make sense?
