Always love seeing your droid customs - you come up with some really interesting ideas and it's inspiring to see how you repurpose plastic containers and other random bits of junk. In this particular video I was stoked to identify a Zoids Salamander gun at the three-minute mark, and now I'm curious if you've ever built or kitbashed a Zoid.
WOW…that turned out SO great! 🙌🏻 I love the “fish head” idea. I think he looks better than Akbar. Love the red touches as well - makes for a nice pop of color. Love it! 😊🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Look on pintrest to get some ideas of robotic or mechanical legs then look at the construction of each piece. You would be surprised at junk you have laying around that could become a leg... The casing of an old pen, tooth picks, handels on plastic forks. Check out Andy Mecha, he does some simple leg builds. Tell him I sent ya, great guy! 😀 th-cam.com/video/fIxFhetdU1Y/w-d-xo.html
AWESOME WORK MY MAN! Quick question, I tried the dye method before but the color of said dye just bled through the acrylic paint. Do I have to let the dye boil for 30min to an hour? Cause the last video I saw of a fellow kitbasher using the method said 15min. Love seeing your kitbashing process keep it up.
This is Twisted X custom gaming by the way I love you show you build some awesome action figures I got some action figures that you might like look up Twisted X custom gaming I also make my own custom action figures
Very cool! It came out with the perfect "greeble density" to match the base figure. That's always something I think ties the project in at the right scale 👍
Absolutely brilliant stuff, but I would love to see, how to build arms, hands, legs as once these are built, you can attach them to almost any shape, even how to make spider legs and so ❤❤❤
Thanks, I do have a few videos that I have custom built legs and arms but I also love to repurpose existing parts from action figures or gundam bits. Check out Andy Mecha he has some great tutorials on making arms an legs. Tell him I sent ya, great guy! Hope this helps.

I think I got it at Target on clearance... it may have been at my Barns & Noble... I can't remember exactly. I always go straight to the clearance section at any store. 😂
You didn't have to chop that hand up. You could have kept the peg on that robot claw and carved it down so that its peg fit into the hand socket. At first I thought you was creating an articulated risk.
Next time you want to make a neck ball fit just fill the cavity where its going with hot glue, and cover the neck ball with vaseline or any cooking oil and shove it where it need to go while the hot glue is still soft. Pull it out and trim the excess
@@DRToysCreations In the words of the great Bob Ross it was one of those Happy Little Accidents. If you keep doing the Videos we'll keep watching them.
I love how someone can take a bunch of unwanted or unused junk and recycle them to make a great Star Wars-style character. Great job! 👏👍
Thanks!
That one really came out COOL. Great Job DOC!!!
Thank you! Cheers!😀

I haven't yet... I did find a few Zoids at a yardsale so it's definitely on my to do list! 😀
Thanks for watching!
Super cool build.
Thanks!
Very cool.
Love it man

Great!❤
Thanks! 😊
Looks awsome. I found a 3 1/2" action figure with a missing leg. Any tips on making a robotic or mechical leg?

I ended up boiling it for around an hour and it still wasn’t exactly what I was hoping for…but this is the first and last time I’ve died a fugue…
@@DRToysCreations AH, gotcha. Thanks for the reply.
🤟🏻🐴💙💜💙💜💙
Thanks!

This is Twisted X custom gaming by the way I love you show you build some awesome action figures I got some action figures that you might like look up Twisted X custom gaming I also make my own custom action figures
Awesome, I checked it out, nice work.👍
Your droid certainly looks like it can take care of itself! Love the video and your enthusiasm. You got yourself a new subscriber!
Thanks Jason, I appreciate that!
Very cool! It came out with the perfect "greeble density" to match the base figure. That's always something I think ties the project in at the right scale 👍
Awesome, thanks!😀
Beautiful work doc, I love the end ressults!!👏👏👏
Thanks so much!
Love it. Those new final faction bits look great. Can’t wait til they start showing up in my area.
Yeah, they are great!
Really love this guy Doc, the dye job worked out awesome. Tasty looking soup too. 😁👍
Nothing better that a nice hot bowl of Action Figure soup! 😂 Thanks
I've been following your cardboard bots, those are turning out great!
Amazing results!!!!! Definitely one of my favorites that you have done!
Awesome! Thank you!
@@DRToysCreations you are welcome!

I have almost every Overwatch ultimate, only missing a couple of the small singles. Where did you get that one for so cheap?
I think I got it at Target on clearance... it may have been at my Barns & Noble... I can't remember exactly. I always go straight to the clearance section at any store. 😂
You didn't have to chop that hand up. You could have kept the peg on that robot claw and carved it down so that its peg fit into the hand socket. At first I thought you was creating an articulated risk.
So by doing what I did I do now have a fully articulating hand.
Next time you want to make a neck ball fit just fill the cavity where its going with hot glue, and cover the neck ball with vaseline or any cooking oil and shove it where it need to go while the hot glue is still soft. Pull it out and trim the excess
That's a great idea! Thanks!
Good timing...I now know what to do with a headless T-600 Terminator!
😂 YES!!!
Cheel is a good band.
Máster !!!
great work, looks great. may have to try something similar some time.
Awesome!
Dude! That's awesome.. great work.
Thanks a ton!
great looking build, I have to keep my out for that Final faction pack. I have 5 of the other new packs.
Still haven't found any new figures yet.
Yeah, I'm looking for the Final Faction walker/spider bot... The legs are perfect for kitbashing!
@@DRToysCreations How can you beat it for $20 you can pretty much get a whole set. I'll be posting on Instagram as I get more.
Thanks for the inspiration to scratch build
you're very welcome! Thanks for watching!
Thats a great idea, looks insane!
Thanks. Glad you like it!
Looks Great 👍 , a sort of Alien Andriod 👍
Thanks!
He kinda gives off some Proxy vibes
I can see that. 😀
That is one awesome custom model you did
Thanks!
Great thinking out of the box on the head.
It kinda made itself. 😀
Thanks.
Awesome!
Thanks!
thats a great build, the head looks perfect for that body.
It's not what I was expecting the end result to be but it turned out cool so I'm happy! 😂
Thanks for watching!
@@DRToysCreations In the words of the great Bob Ross it was one of those Happy Little Accidents. If you keep doing the Videos we'll keep watching them.
So cool! Diggin it!
Awesome! Thanks.

That is really neat looking! I like the color and the head gives it a menacing look to it. Thanks for sharing this great tutorial.
You are so welcome!
