My 2-1b focus

[Cazza]

That bootleg is fab 8) Can't beat the Palitoys though- very cool 8)

 

[Simply Sci-fi]

Do you have "The Art of The Empire Strikes Back"? It includes the original blueprints and some great design sketches of 2-1B. It says "The medical staff is headed by Too-Onebee, a medical droid with a human brain." I always took that as meaning that the droid actually had a human brain fused inside its metal casing. It explains why Luke Skywalker is having a conversation with 2-1B and why the droid was invited to attend the briefing in ROTJ. Unfortunately the expanded universe didn't pick up these kinds of things!

Always an absolute pleasure to look through this. Well done.

Are you worried about the daylight from the rear at all?

Taff

Jason,

Taff

Curtains behind were open for the photos, they are closed the rest of the time.

Thanks for the kind words everyone!

[Plastikheld]

Leaves me speechless.
What an amazing focus collection, wonderfully displayed.

 

[Clarkspie&chips]

Finally! I'd nearly forgotten you had this fantastic focus as it's been overshadowed by your cardboard obsession in recent years.

Those look absolutely superb and infinitely better than the ability to have cold beers close to hand.

What items are you missing? It looks like a pretty complete run!

 

[Darth Bobby]

Incredibly cool! 8)

2-1B or not 2-1B

Amazing collection, lovely display now as well.
Appreciate a dedication like this.

Is that POTF an actual proof/mock up?
