Wanted R2D2 head for SW DE

I’m surprised they haven’t been reproduced yet. I assume yours is either missing or tatty.

If tatty, send it off for rechroming. There’s not really anywhere that does plastic chroming though for small orders in the UK, however I’m sure if you reached a little further into Europe or the USA you’d sort it out. Might be worth you asking on Pinside theres a DESW owners thread...

 
Thats right, the head in the play field.

Mine has lots of re-paint and runs on it, looks like someone emptied a full can on it at some point prior to it landing with me.

I could sand it down and spray but its in a sorry state so thought i'd try my luck if anyone had unbutchered one to refirb.


The problem I see with spraying, is getting the blue plastic back in after paining.
Chrome spray paints don't like being touched, and you would need to handle it a fair bit to put back together.
I know the chrome sprays are not the best, but was R2 ever chrome anyhow?
