Dwarf Spider Droid
My goal of designing a perfect LEGO dwarf spider droid is complete (With a few exceptions)
First of all the 4x4 hemisphere would be the perfect element if only there was a stud on the very top for connecting a little would be antenna. (Major oversight by the designer of that part)
Since other part configurations simply does not look as correct, the most elegant solution is to drill a small hole directly in the center of part 86500 (Purists look away) this will allow a foil/épée sword to stick through the shell and complete the look.
Now for the two large optical sensors sitting directly on the spherical chassis, this was the hardest part to incorporate over to a LEGO frame. Again because I'm going for maximum movie accurracy THE best part to use is without a doubt 3614b.
Because its compatible with balljoints the eyes can sit flush to the head at a slight angle (Exactly what we want)
Unfortunately it's an old part not produced since 2003, but the part should be available albeit slighly expensive at least only two is needed to complete the model.
