As everyone knows Hammerhead is a plant lover. Here is the droid he uses to keep his landscape tidy. It has the ability to prune branches with the rotating arms with blades at the end. It can ythen clean up the mess with several arms around the main body of the droid. It features a spraying system of fertilizer and chemicals to reduce pest populations at the very top of the droid. It is also programed to pick fruit and harvest vegetables wether up in a tree of down on the ground. It is his favorite droid and he has modified it several times to fit his needs.




This rocks so hard-
A tree-cutting robot-
incredible!!!
I love it!!!!!

Thanks for the kind words guys...I have wanted something like this for my own use for years! haha

narceron - thanks buddy and I can't wait to see how those figures turn out.

Jules - By all means get to work man! We are dying to see what you would conjure up!

Jay - feels good to get your approval on a droid custom!

fiala - glad you like my ittle story. I would like to develope this more, I could see him having a fruit/veggie stand in front of some weird looking farm.

Pat - I too love the Ithorians! Hammer Head always stood out to me as a child. I guess I even loved the background character back then!

CC - thanks so much, glad you liked the story.

I was taking pics, so I thought... why not...





I'm going with some sort of sexy assassin type of droid hired to seduce and take out a Senator... Hey.. who knows what those sick politicians would do with a droid...  :o

I gotta play with the "hair" a little, get the right wild look, but not so it looks too wild, lol.. the face plate comes off, it's a Magna Droid head under.. Still tinkering with the color scheme... not sure if I wanna go crisp and clean droid look, or worn and weathered... also not too sure on the "fleshy" legs, they looked cool at first, but not too good in picture form, but it might just be the hodgepodge of colors playing with my eyes... what do you guys think?


i am actually really diggin this, watch out tim burton!

HB that droid looks great!  great idea using the wall-E base!  I wish I could get a few of the wall-E figs on clearance sometime, they are just too expensive otherwise. 

I can't wait to get the voting for this one started!

Yay! Jules has time to do customs now. Great entry I love your droid. Nice job combining the Wal-e droid and the new clone wars droid. Are those medical droid arms? I have no idea how to pick a favorite in this contest...

Nice droid, Jules! Yes, I do agree that the voting will be a chore on this one, indeed. We have so many great entries.
