freakin cool!

Awesome! I love watching father/son projects like this. Keep the pictures coming.

Thats really cool man!

very cool

One lucky little guy!

Is the pink part clay?

The pink part is foamies. The sheets you get @ the craft store.

I ask because I have a nephew I may make one for, and this is pretty awesome. I cant tell from the photos but what did you use/do to make the opening of the paper towel tube closest to the trigger closed off? Did you just fill those gaps with bondo also?

Awesome Idea!!
Why Am I hear at work, when all this building needs to be done!!!!!

Very cool!

Too cool keep up the good work I canot wait to see what the rest of this looks like. I just wish my son would make up his mind so that I can get started on his. He keeps switching between Jango, Boba, and Han!!

Hella Tight im sure mom loves this hehe

I wrapped the cylinder with a small square glued it in place cut another to shape glued it in place then applied the bondo as you guessed it sanded it all down I should have actually done a better job but I keep trying to remind myself its for a 4 year old that will out grow it a month after Halloween so just whip it together.

I'm going to purchase one of those Rubies boba fett helms and his armor will a fun to build!

Thanks everyone!

Wow Thats Very Good

Wow! That is cool man! I wish my dad was into propbuilding when I was a kid!!

I'm new here, but I just had to chime in and say how great this was. I love seeing parents go all out for their children's activities. Years ago my (now Ex) wife and I made Han & Chewie costumes for my two boys. We went all out. The Chewie costume was complete fur and it came out great and was a total hit with everyone.

I look forward to seeing the rest of your son's costume.

Oh and I also love the fact that you let him be a part of it too by allowing him to paint it.

Wow, that's really cool. Really well done, kudos.

Thank you!

those are awesome...SSSOOO cool that he helps too, you guys are adorable

Brilliant concept. Who would of guessed it was that easy.....if it was easy.

It was pretty easy.

Thanks!
