    Han in carbonite, 98.327% complete

    I've had this for about a year, but just recently got it up on the wall in my new office. Several little details still to fix here and there, but almost there. Big thing is to get the valvo displays working with the rest of the hero panel electronics. This is a fully fiberglass box made by VOS (Neil) which he crated up beautifully and shipped across the pond, fully painted and with all the panels assembled and painted as well (the volvo panels and greeblie kit from Glenn). Neil did an amazing job on this. I put the hero panel together with Modeljag's light kit, minus the number displays. He was kind enough to alter his kit at the time to include the top row of lights. I talked him into it, and I was the first to get that version of his kit that way. I appreciate his willingness to accommodate me on that. Also, thanks to Kurtyboy for sending over the yellow LED lights for my build on the second 'hero' panel. Makes all the difference in the world. Next, I need to replace the resin clips with metal ones.

    Mannie has bendable arms.

    decimal percentage -- "327" -- a nod to a mystery number that shows up more than once in the original trilogy.

    WOW--that is the BEST Han in carbonite replica I've ever seen! The lighted side panels are dead-on, and really make it stand out--congrats!

    Thank you! I plan on making some changes to the wall mount so it looks a bit more like its floating.
