Day 162, Quasi-Quarantine: Rolling Up Some Droidekas


Droidekas were among the most feared enemies of the Galactic Republic. Also called destroyer droids or "rollies," these weapons could not only roll super-fast (close to 50 miles per hour), but they used a self-contained shield generator.

This speed and armament made these Trade Federation droids extremely difficult to repel. Fortunately, droidekas were vulnerable to rear assaults, and a deftly thrown grenade could also do the trick in rendering them useless.

We were able to find some instructions online, and after gathering the requisite pieces and making some subtle modifications, we made a few. These pieces are not only relatively easy to make, but they add a unique and intimidating look to conflicts with imperial forces.

If you're into that sort of thing.
