Yesterday I received my 8002: Destroyer Droid and built it. Apparantly the instructions were faulty, because I received a supplement with it. It was quite a hassle to get it correct.

4481: Hailfire Droid 505

Today I received the 4481: Hailfire Droid from majewede, which I bought via eBay. As it’s a pretty old product (2003), it’s also pretty hard to get. It has these two great “wheels”, which I’m planning to use for the NXT.

Ofcourse I had to build the Hailfire droid, before I dismantle it again and use the parts for my NeXT project. Here are some photos of the finished product:

Actually the droid is pretty big, the wheels alone are about 21 centimeters in diameter. The laser-cannons are made of 30 the same pieces. The wheels are really spectacular! This shows something of the size of the wheels.
