| Specially designed for deep space exploration, and reconnaissance, probe droids are employed in science and military applications. They gather data and transmit it to their masters over vast distances. Tenacious hunters and searchers, probe droids (or probots) have a variety of sensors, and the ones employed by the Empire are armed with powerful blasters and, in some models, shields. |  | |

| Building the base stand... |
| I have not yet created a satisfactory base for this kit. My aim is to create a snowy base that will resemble the scene in Empire Strikes Back. |  |
|
| Building the kit... |
| Building this kit was pretty straight forward. The instructions were few but clear and it look me just over three days to complete this kit. | |
|
| Painting the model... |
I used a mixture of the following colours to create the dark metal texture that was also seen in the film.
Tamiya Dark Grey (colour number 81724)
Tamiya Olive Drab (colour number 81762)
Tamiya Gun Metal (colour number 81710)

| Overall experience... |
| This was a fun kit to build even though I finished it a tad too soon to my liking. | |
