Bandai Yoda 1/6 Clone Wars Version now with finished 1/12 ESB Yoda
Posted by NucMedTech on Sunday, April 8, 2018 7:56 AM

Hi everyone,

   This is a side project I worked on during lunch at work, kind of a stress relief project. So just a basic build, no airbrushing, some seam filling where it would not hinder articulation and a little glue here and there.

the first pics are of it built out the box with nothing done to it.

and he does come with an alternate head with no hair.

So these pics are after some seam filling and repainting the whole figure.

I have to say I like these figure kits from Bandai and now that they have started issueing kits with human faces already painted I am looking forward to more.

BTW this kit comes with a 1/12 ESB Yoda also. Here is a pic of where I am at with that one.

Cool! Nice to see what you can do with these with a little more work and TLC.

 

BTW: Is it just me or in the first photo does it look like Yoda is flipping someone off?

Thanks Gamera, yeah, these are nice kits and fun to build. I like that you can build them quickly and have a nice model of invest a little time and have something really nice.

I like what you did with Yoda! He turned out great.

And I agree with you, these Bandai kits are fantastic. I bought several of them, with a First Order Stormtrooper assembled, but, not finished.

This is the finished 1/12 Yoda. I tried making a more interesting base for him, more Dagobah-ish.

Oh awesome job!!! 

Love the base, does look much more Dagobah-ish indeed! 

 

And love the floating rock you added.
