Thanks JDeck. I put them on Ebay and they lasted like a second. One fellow bought them all!

Getting great results with some new molds. Two piece Mandalorian Jet Pack 6" scale in an array of colors! A few very small imperfections. I'll fix them up with putty, give em' a nice paint job and list them on Ebay.

Thanks Stan. There are some minor imperfections,  but they're easily repaired with Aves Fixit. Once the putty is cured it's white so I match the plastic paint color and it's hard to tell anythings been done.

Unfortunately that's the only one done. I've had two days in a row where I've had other things to do. I hope to sit down and knock knock them out tomorrow.

Those are awesome.  Did you mold/cast them?  I'm getting ready to start making duplicates, for my mandos I'm creating.

Thanks Bronxstalker! Yes I did a two part mold for both parts of the jet pack. It pops apart quite easily. I did try molding it as one piece with a two part, but it causes too many defects. Separating the pack in parts is the way to do it.

Final paint apps applied. Weathering and details have been added. The back peg has proven to be an asshole and some have broken off. No big deal. I've added neodymium magnets to compensate those.
So here they are! They'll be hitting eBay later today.
