PLEASE NOTE: All parts are Builders Club approved and have been for some time now after going through the process of submitting pictures and documentation, proving I made all the parts myself and to the correct specification.
All parts I make are made to the specified 1:1 dimensions as laid down for all builders in the CS:L version, but since starting to build my R6, I found many of the parts were chunkier than they needed to be with lots of excess resin that served no purpose. So I set about streamlining the parts to shave off as much weight as possible without affecting the cosmetic side or strength of them.
All parts are now made from a brand new eco friendly industrial grade polyurethane resin, which means they are not only lighter, but stronger and more durable too.

R2 Ankle Cylinder Holders
These are my new injection moulded ankle cylinder holders, which are made from a HIPS nylon hybrid plastic, which is far stronger and more durable than resin, allowing for a much thinner and skeletal design, but at the same time being HIPS based means it sticks super strong to the ankle cylinder, so...

R2 Ankle Cylinder Wedges
This is for a pair of Ankle cylinder wedges, enough to do either the outer legs or inner one, and if you want to do all three legs then you will need two packs of these.

R2 Ankle Cylinders
I am trying to move away from resin in favour of injection moulding, but due to the shot load of my injection moulding machine the parts have to broken down into kit form, which does require you to assemble them first, (normal model glue like Humbrol Liquid Poly works fine and Humbrol model filler for...

R2 Battery Harness

R2 Charging Arm
This is what I call one of my made parts, in that there was no official plans for this at the time I made it, just spotted it in the DK star wars book and thought it would look quite good, so set about scaling and making it.

R2 Front Logic Surrounds
These are my new injection moulded front logic surrounds, which are made from a HIPS nylon hybrid plastic, which is far stronger and more durable than resin, but at the same time being HIPS based means it sticks really well to a styrene dome with just something like liquid poly model kit glue, or if...

This is for a PAIR of front vents, one for the top, and one for the bottom, as they are both different.

First what I thought were nuts or screws in the top turned out to be little spike...

R2 Octagon Ports
This part is made to the specified 1:1 dimensions, however I based the slat spacing and centre knob size more on the original pictures of ILM's uber droid as it was called, as personally I thought the slighter bigger slats looked better, but all said and done most people never spot the difference. These...

First of all there is the end snapping off near the narrow part when at shows etc, where kiddies pull on them, (can't be helped,) so to that end these were...
