- Adam shows off the shiny gold-plated C-3PO that stands in the middle of his workshop. Learn about the process of vacuum metallizing that gave this chrome coating. Believe it or not, there's an interesting story behind it!

Adam Savage’s Tested Why doesn’t C3PO have a right silver leg? Both his legs are NOT gold.
Props to the Star Wars fan that tried so hard for this!
Do or do not, there is no try.
You need the wires on his stomach.
I agree, and it doesn't look as worn and beat up as it should. Aside from that, I saw no silver leg! 3PO has a silver leg!
JJ Greywolf That bugged me too.
Well this is most likely an unfinished project. So I have no doubts that Adam will add all these things.

And now he has a red arm

I'm really glad you were involved in this piece and did so much to contribute to it. And the fact that you took the time to let us know some of its background and details is wonderful.
Thanks a lot. :)
The BEST story teller! Love these snippets of Adam's collection.
This was a fun project. We used approximately two ounces of 99.9% gold in the coating process which is valued at $3500 today, the actual gold used was mined near Baker City Oregon. The gold thickness is approximately 2000 Angstroms thick. The base and clear coat was applied by Greg Bent at Aspen Coatings and finish works was done by Nathan Lembcke and Glenn Rueckert. It is an absolute joy to see this piece on display in Adam's Cave.

Anyone else just watching these TESTED videos with Adam Savage back to back to back? I've seriously been watching them for hours, so good.
the reason mythbusters crew is all so awesome is that they all have passion ! awesome video ! C3PO RULES !
not to be that guy but where are the wires in the center of c3po
what a great collectors piece
NATHIE
I didnt know they worked at industrial light and magic until this. Even more respect now!
I actually know the dude that coated this, he was my dads roommate for a number of years. My dad also was the one who sanded it before getting coated (not the other dude). But it's really cool to know that at one point I got to touch it before it ended up with Adam.
he has so many cool stuff it would be a dream come true if i ever would be able to visit his mancave
Wow. Im more impressed and amazed at the STORY than the actual 'statue' of C-3PO
what an awesome story. i like adam so much more in off-the-set situations like this than his mythbusters persona.
Sulu was inside C-3PO? Oh what a wonderful world. I just started loving Grant even more, if possible. What a lovely day.
This is my favorite show that you guys do. Hands down.
I have gained so much respect for Anthony Daniels’ book. It insane.
This IS the Droid I am looking for!
Grant HAS to appear in the 3po costume at least from the neck down for one episode for [insert mythbusters or tested]. its total fan candy!
I love how animated adam gets when he talks about science and processes
Nicely done, Adam Savage. Worked at ILM. Dude. Thank you for sharing your cave. (Found this on CBZ's iheartchaos site) Next? Rocket pack story: let's go. Thanks testedcom. And, Grant Imahara's cave? Oh yeah
It looks better smooth than rough!
Isn't C-3PO right lower leg more silver color?
+Brian Tani Yup
+Brian Tani what about his higher up right leg? lol
+dragonslayer1483 His thigh?
Brian Tani no his other right leg
***** nope, the OTHER right leg
I know it doesn't match the description in the books, but when I read Isaac Asimov's Robot's of Dawn this is how I picture Giskard. (Maybe a little more bulky) If you don't know the book, everyday Auroran robots had pseudo-skin that was designed to look like a cross between clothes and skin in an aversion of the Uncanny Valley, but I just can't see that in my mind. His partner Daneel, being humaniform, always reminded me of a tall Scandinavian.
The best part of 'gold', it's #1 recommended for motherboards.
What a great representation of my Star Wars favorite character.
What doesn't this guy have ??? :D
Let me think..uhmm...oh oh! Puncake.
Tom Jacobs a silver leg for c3po
@@toddkuznitz3629 I agree
"His companion will get much better coverage in a couple months"
6 years later
Still no R2-D2 video
9 years later
Still no R2D2 video.
why does this channel has so few subscribers? this is awesome!
I love Adam's cave.
Love this. You guys MUST get Grant on the show to get some cool stories from him in this costume and former robot wars career.
I love that Adam Savage is on this channel! Great reviews and hands on with the latest stuff AND one of the mythbusters?! Subscribed! :D
True 24 karat gold C-P30.. If I could I'd like this a million times. Always be testing.
Adam's cave is amazing!!!!!
one word...
AWSOME
Priceless
this youtube channel is the besssssst
I'm probably not the only one who thought he would come to life at the end of the video.
+John Klobuchar Shit, that's what I thought when I CLICKED on it lol.
John Klobuchar Adam is alive
That is one hell of a story
ADAM! I've been building a C3PO as well. Fully wearable. (yes, i can fit) Grant actually gave me a little help early in the build. I've got lots of videos about my build on my page..
This is too awesome, again.
Very Cool. Adam you have such awesome toys.
This video made me forget about my shitty life for a few minutes. Thank you for uploading.
I think that this 3PO is cool, but a worn/aged one would be better. I also think it is so very cool that it may be the only actual 24K C-3PO.
Great Story. I want one soooo bad. and I want to wear it.
This is awesome!
Huge respect to Adam Savage for the Metropolis reference!
FYI, it doesn't say *pop*, usually you use an electronbeam to melt the metal to the vaporization point... takes a few minutes to coat that thick layer...
What Star Wars fan wouldn't want one of these!! I noticed a glaring inaccuracy with it though: C-3PO has one lower leg(his right leg, I believe) that looks to be silver in the movie whereas this one appears to be all gold.
Is that the guy from myth busters?
yea
+Niklas Freericks The gold robot is from a film called "Star Wars".
+nagualdesign haha
***** really?
***** Cpt Obvious x)
What's worth more the actual c3p0 suit used in the movie or this actual gold c3p0
YES! THE C3PO VIDEO!
Who is here because of the Mandela Effect. In my memory and clearly in Adam's whose take realism to heart think the legs are both gold. I always remember them always being gold but this timeline/universe seems to think it was silver.
Like this comment if you remember it always being GOLD and not SILVER!
fuck you Mandela effect, please no more movies!
Motorcycles Vancouver I remember him with a silver leg but I think most people don't remember that because in some of the movies he had a gold so it gets confusing😂
Motorcycles Vancouver
Also, I'm not the only one who remembers
Loony Toons
instead of
Loony *Tunes*
Fucking Mandela.
hey..... this Mandela thing is a Myth. Adam and Jaime should try to bust it
Motorcycles Vancouver I don't really care
One of the awesomest episodes in this series. And that's no small feat!
And OMG, Will, Norm, whoever... go on and ask Grant about his experiences with the 3PO costume RIGHT NAO! :o
I thought that for years until I noticed 3PO has always had a silver leg (even in A New Hope). Some say it's an optical illusion because in some scenes he seems to have 2 golden legs. But look carefully, and you'll see that most of the time, he has his silver leg already. Revenge Of The Sith is the only film where he's shown with 2 perfectly golden legs.
So Where's the R2 video?
2:41 LMAO!!!!
Great cave!
2:44 - I shared Adam's terror when 3PO got bumped and his head wobbled! LOL
I just want to be in the near of his man cave :3 Every thing in and around it is amazing!
Back in 1968, my Buddy Robert Bookbinder had Don Post masks, which went for about a hundred bucks back then. We were 17 years old. HE got that kinda dough as an allowance back then. I think I got about, well, you know..you could buy a model kit. So, we made a movie...Trick or Treat on Baker St., combining the Sherlock Holmes characters with a search for a missing mummy. I'd love to have that film now....Bob passed in the eighties, and his mother wasn't turning over anything...
when is the video of his counter part coming?
Now I want to hear Grant's 3PO stories.
Good stuff keep it coming
Love how Adam has a gold-plated C3P-0, not because he has a tendency to excess, but because people just plain like him.
wow thats what you call a big fan!
gold?!
Cool droid model adam
Most impressive.....are you going to make one leg silver? Love your passion and art talent!
THey should totally bring Grant on this show, would like to see some of his robot creation.
IIRC in some scenes his leg is silver and some it is gold. We decided due to concern for the success of the coating process to go for the all gold look. Had the model been broken separated at the knee Adam would have received a silver legged C3PO.

4:14 SPIRITED AWAY GHOST!!! I LOVE HIM!
nope, he is using white, they tinge blue because to produce the blue light component to balance with the red and green, it requires more energy, and so less of the overall energy used will go towards producing the red component as the energy peak will be roughly in the blue part of the electromagnetic spectrum
The request from Mr Savage was simply "I want a gold C3PO" which I believe was successfully delivered.

There needs to be an interview with Grant about this!
awesome stuff!
I hate to break it to you Adam but it isn't the only C3PO in gold. My C3PO premiered at SEMA a couple of years ago and he is plated in real gold.
Hi whats that alien figure in the glass box in the back? Looks interesting. Similar to those grey aliens i read so much about.
I wonder what the book is about that's behind Adam.
mythbuster bible
Oxford English Dictionary photographically reduced - 9 full sized pages of the standard dictionary on every page. When he talks about Admiral Akbar's eyes on another clip, he mentions the magnifier than came with his OED, as a model for the eyes.
2:43 you can see the seriousness in Adam's eyes
Nice Job!
Also been working on a really good diy metalizing technique. Tutorial videos in progress...
FINALLY!
I loved it when adam bumped the 3po I thought he was going to dive to the floor to cushion the fall of the 3po head lol
You guys have to interview Grant about that story would be awesome to hear :D
oh god, thank you for coming back we hate norm the awkward so much.
If anyone could tell me where that skull in the background is from I would really appreciate it. :)
Funny story thanks!
Would you say C-3PO is gold or brass?
great stories
I hope he sent that kid a signed photo!
damn the world works in wonderful ways
Our pro audio app (Amazing MP3 Recorder Pro on Google Play) - now has a C3PO voice - click Settings - Voice Changer - select 'P3CO'
Is that a partial Plo Koon mask in the glass case behind Adam?
Okay if I had a mold set, I would make a disassembled 3P0 from Episode 5, that can be put together, starting with the head.
6:16 Adam almost said the naughty word
hmm wonder why he went with a purple tint for the eye lighting instead of the classic yellowish
3PO 4 LIFE!
Awesome!Wow- C-3P0 is my favorite robot and that was very interesting. My birthday gift to me! :) Wonder where they got the Star wars special Artoo?Also-Does not C-3P0 have orangish eyes? Thanks Mr. Savage! #mythbusterfan
