I also tried to win this one from Ebay but was outbid Rolling Eyes

Here's another death star droid. Personally I am entranced by these unpainted droids but I've recently learnt some collectors are aghast at the thought of doing it, even if it is a loose limbed beater that can't stand by itself. Mine has the black limbs but the body is marbled blue on the front with a yellow back. The head is marbled olive.

That's a great stripped DSD Bertie Bootleg thanks for sharing with us mate clapping

Great username also cheers

I really must get one of these myself, love the different colors in them What a Face

by **hellhippie** Sat Mar 03, 2018 2:06 pm

Love it , i have quite a hankering for these. I love all the combos one can find . If its a beater who cares thats what i say

by **ourchickenshack** Sat Mar 03, 2018 5:50 pm

Great DSD Bertie cheers

I can understand both sides of the argument but I have never stripped a droid that anyone would want to buy as a "collectable figure" . The whole reason Clint and I put together this article was to try and educate uninformed collectors and put a end to people selling them for hundreds of dollars as prototypes .

No matter what area of the hobby there is always differences of opinion - personally I disapprove of grading loose figures but lots of people do it , who am I to tell them how to collect ?

I'm with Bill , if its a beater that no one will buy anyway then I'll do what I want to do with it .
