Love me a good scratch build. It's one of those things I started getting into when the pandemic hit, making spaceships and things. Got too busy to keep up with it, but hopefully I can get started again soon.
Nice, friendly wee bot. The legs turned out awseome, I enjoyed watching you figure it out. For an extra detail I would have put some pistons behind the knee. Great work Doc. 😎
Droid builds are the best! Always so inspirational. Maybe next time, include some footage of some of the other droids along side the new one, just to see the comparison. Turned out great man, thanks for all the inspiration
DR, love your videos! You have turned me into a toy nerd. I finished my second scratch built robot today thanks to inspiration from your videos. The legs on this one turned out great but my favorite part is the light. Keep up the great work and keep the videos coming.
This thing looks so wild like a informations bot just randomly walking around a city or village and people can go up to it and ask it a question or plug a drive into it and do a search on it for news and information.
I love the end result! One of the things I really like about your videos is how you show the organic, trial and error way of making scratch builds like this. It's a big part of what I love about this kind of model making myself, and very satisfying when things finally "click".
What a lot of people dont realize is the amount of time I just sit and stare at a project thinking how in the heck am I gonna do this! But yeah, when it clicks it's so rewarding! Thanks for watching!
i always like seeing chicken legs and starwars chicken style walkers and tank mechs, watching your vids has made me subconsiously start to collect cool little plastic garbage pieces from containers im about to throw out, like 1L boxes of juice ill take the lids off of those for robot feet and whatnot, and started making my own Toilet Paper Roll Robots that have that 3A World War Robots feel to them love your content
I always find it funny when you use Gunpla parts. Like, most of what you use is dollar store toys or recycled plastic bits that otherwise would go to the trash can. Can't get cheaper than that. And then I see you using the thighs of a HG Gundam AGE-1 Spallow which tends to be a hella rare kit most of the times which goes >20-30€ for most of the time until Bandai decides to reprint it. Funnily enough this reminds me of a build I did using a Kinder Egg toy capsule and spare Gunpla parts. Wish I could show it to you, although I don't know how could that be done. Anyways, friggin love your channel and your imagination, always making me wishful proper dollar stores were a thing in my land >.>
So to be fair I found the Gundam at a yard sale for .25 cent! 😂 A kid had started it and lost a few parts so it make for great kitbashig! You can always email me @ drtoys@yakstub.com Thanks for watching.
@@DRToysCreations Oh ye recall you've mentioned it along a RG Destiny Gundam in some older video. Quite a gigantic jackpot. I'll send you photos of my kinder drone :> (also hope that you don't get undesired emails from random trolls as collateral consequence >.>)
@@tasiopiro8962 Unfortunately DR never responded to my email, which makes me a bit bummed, but he isn't in any obligation or something. Maybe I ended up in his spam folder automatically or something anyways. Didn't post here because youtube comments tends to spam-filter urls, but I'll try imgur.com/gallery/g7ex40J
Interesting little build. I almost didn't like the legs but they sort of grow on you. I can see it as a alien robot chasing chickens around trying to communicate with them! Lol
It looks fantastic and I like your original design! I like the droids you build as they are very unique and just plain cool. Thanks for sharing this and the video of the lighted droid looked good.
i sometimes look at things and see how they could become characters, but you sir are on another level. one thing that i have always thought would make great kitbashing is a deodorant container. pop of the wheel on it already looks like two feet.
Hi Dave, thanks for another amazing looking robot. Don't have those mints here in the UK but the design is something I want to copy. I think the legs are great and I like how the whole body glows blue. You are also going to get me into lighting my builds.
Years ago now a lot of the guys on the Alphadrome web site for robots did a dollar store build contest, it was great fun seeing all the robots built from nothing but dollar store crap. Thank you for sharing your build with us.
Just watched Batteries not Included again for the first time in a long time. I've always loved robots and stuff and your channel is absolutely inspiring. So much fun! Thanks for sharing!
Alright I need to build a droid now. Usually I scratch build diorama or terrain scatter for 3.75 figures out of junk. Great job. I really enjoy your vids.
Excellent work. I like watching your videos. Helps me come up with ideas for some builds. It helps too to get me through days I am just feeling rough. Especially during these times. Thanks
Haha I saw 3104 and was thinking "That looks like the word HOLE - I should leave a comment to let you k ow!"... Then about 10 seconds later, you said the same thing! Haha
This Robot is so cool!!!! Im not sure if he would be a big bot or a small bot. I feel like he would be big, Maybe used for laser cutting metal under water.
Beefy legs didnt fit at all imo, I much prefer the direction you took. Now I want one in a larger scale that chills on my back/shoulder like BD1 in Fallen Order. Awesome little droid.
Super cool build. Really love the use of parts. Sadly I again need to feel the need to express a little constructive criticism. You really need to practice looking into the lens and not the screen. When you look at yourself in the screen, it is less engaging, looks like you are looking over my shoulder as a viewer rather than looking me in the eye. By looking into the lens of your camera, you appear to be looking into a video viewer's eye. Psychologically, this plays a huge impact on the human psyche. Imagine if I were with you in person, you know I'm not seeing impaired, and I kept looking over your shoulder as I spoke to you. It would seem weird, right? The two best solutions are either never show your face, or look into the lens of your camera. It takes practice. Nonetheless, your imagination and creativity are inspiring. You've got a great personality and an absolutely infectious enthusiasm. Take care, and have a great day.
Awesome build! I prefer the long legs over the short ones. To me the long legs give the droid more character. The shot of it lit up the end of video was awesome the blue LED was such a great idea.
That's a cool trash bash. I used the same container last year to make a six legged walker tank. I just posted a 3 part dollartree build with the final faction weapons packs.
Hoi hoi. Another great build again. My daughter and I tried this build but we can’t make it look as good as yours. I’m trying to articulate them, you don’t really do that, but if you could, try it on the next build - that’s a bit of a challenge for you!😅 Also you should have a go at making that spider thing from your sketch too, it looks absolutely amazing! Keep them coming :)
Articulation is definitely on my list! To be honest I still really struggle with arms and legs in general, once I figure out how to make them then hopefully I can get them to move.😂 Challenge accepted! 😃👍 Thanks for the kind words!
I make robots out of vintage junk and spare parts but I've also been tinkering with doing more with plastic. What glue do you use for your incredible creations?
Thanks for the awesome videos! You actually were one of the people that inspired me to make My my first kitbashing video over on my channel. Specially I like how I’ve seen you use the final faction dollar tree toys. I’ll be attempting my first droid build in a few weeks on my channel at well! Thanks again

Hey friend is impressive your talent is amazing. Greetings
Thank you very much
What kind of a human says greetings at the end????
Nice, friendly wee bot. The legs turned out awseome, I enjoyed watching you figure it out. For an extra detail I would have put some pistons behind the knee. Great work Doc. 😎
Cool, thanks
i love this idea, just imagining this being fired out of a disc launcher with all the legs and arms
folded up.....amazing !!! Great Job :)
That would be cool😂
you should do a video expanding the dollar store final faction rosters. this could be their maintenance dried
I love your videos, this genuinely made my day so much better
You are so kind

I think his little SpongeBob legs are cute! They definitely make the robot feel more friendly - As you had envisioned. Great job! 🙌🏻😊
Thank you 🤗
The small legs are definately better.The whole mechanic style droid is really cool,awesome job.Love your videos!!
Thanks.
This build is truly as cool as ice.
😂 Thanks!

I think you did a great job. Looks awesome. all you need is to add on the Drone Landing Zone on it's top, with a bunch of drones on it's head.
That would be cool!😂

Thanks. I like to weather my bots because you can hide a lot of sins but it's fun to challenge myself you do a clean bot every now and then!
Try Gorrilia Hot Glue .
Great for builds like this
I'll have to look for some!
It reminds me of the robot on Star Wars Force Awakens.
Yeah, there is a little Star Wars vibe! 😀
AMAZING. as always
I love this so much
I'm glad you like it😀👍
That's so cooool
Thanks!
Awesome build. Keep them coming.
Thanks, will do!

I.love your Dermal I have 2 cheapys
Yeah, the cordless one is pretty nice
I need to do this sometime it looks amazing
DO IT!!! 😃👍
Great build. Not a fan of the legs, but not sure what i would change, maybe a little shorter.
But a cool build none the less.
To me I thought it was funnier with the longer legs, it ended up kinda like the awkward tall teenager bot! 😂
Thanks for watching!
@@DRToysCreations now you put it that way I do see it.
Another awesome robot! Your videos get me really inspired to creat stuff!
That's awesome! Thanks for watching!
The glow effect is awesome!
Thanks!
I love him! The body reminds me of a crab somehow
I can see that! 😂
Nice toy, Dr ! ;)
Thank you
Soooo cool!!!
Thanks!
Build a really big car out of a bottle make it look futuristic
I'm sitting here waiting/hoping for the Dave Russell x Jake Parker robot collab...

I love your scratchbuilds/trashbashes, and your presentation. You are the Bob Ross of model-building!
I love that! 😂 That's a hilarious and awesome complement all rolled into one! Thanks!
Very cool. Love the projects with clear plastic. So, you decided to not have circuit stuff under the blue/clear plastic? It looks great all lit up.
I wasn’t sure if it would be to much light coming through if I didn’t paint it… If I use that container again I might try something else.
Thanks

It's a small Brothers Scan N Cut (kinda like a Cricut) Vinyl Cutter. I found it at a yard sale! 😀
Never bad with. Garage Sale Deals I wants bought Five Surgical
Like Xacto knifes for a buck
Nice

Awesome! I love to hear things like this!
Send me pics on my Instagram account if you think about it. I would love to see!
Your audio sucks! When you’re on camera, it’s nice and loud and clear. Cut to the overhead camera and it’s half the volume.
Sorry about that, just got a new camera and trying to dial that it. Thanks for the feedback.
These look really cool. definitely got me inspired.

Very cool! It looks great in the light and in the dark footage! Thank you! Lisa
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching! 😃

Awesome! Thank you!
Before you painted it it looked like it was wearing Jean shorts.
I did think for a second to paint it like a 70's basketball player! 😂
Showing my age here but it looks like the droids off "batteries not included"
That was a great movie. I remember as a kid a friend had it on VHS and we would watch it all the time!!!
I like the hightops, it makes the character have a personality just by looking at it.
Awesome, thanks
It reminds me of Toriyama's mechanic designs.
Thanks! Toriyama is an incredible artist!!!
