Made A Speeder Bike From Junk

  • I had leftover junk bits from an AT-AP Star Wars walker that I used in my last build and one of the junk bits looked like a Star Wars speeder bike to me. When you get a toy at the thrift store for $2.99 and get two custom toy builds out of it, that's a good day. This little toy mashup/scratch build came together pretty easy and in the end I think I have a pretty cool little speeder bike.
    I hope you enjoy this toy customization kitbash video!
    Thanks for visiting DR Toys, and as always...
    "It's a great day to be a toy nerd!"

    Incredible execution Dave, looks perfectly in-universe for Star Wars.

    Tip for filling screw holes, you can pour in some baking soda then drip on some CA adhesive, let it cure then sand back ( you can level the powder off first to make the sanding easier ) Larger holes can be packed first with cotton wool then topped off with BP. Also the front fins are from the triple pack droid starfighter toy , the one with 3 fighters and a handheld stand that "ejected" fighters to simulate hits in combat.

      Great tip! I have used the two before but never thought of it for filling a hole! Thanks so much!

    Absolutely fantastic build! It's always nice when parts left over from your last build roll right into your next one. If only to save a little space in the parts bin! Great work!

    perfect! I love how you have ideas and create a super figure from the rest of the toys you have. Anyone who looks at the piece without watching the video never says that this piece was made from the remains of other figures. Congratulations friend!!

    That is so good! I am always looking forward to your videos. Besides the beautiful builds you do, your infectious smile and personality makes this channel very special. I am on a few channels, and most presenters never speak, and simply point to things that need to be done - especially these restorers of antiques. I’m sure you’ve seen some. I find them boring and I eventually unsubscribe. Thanks once again for sharing your terrific work with us. Your friend from Australia, Graeme.

    The way the figure sits on the bike, reminds me of MOTU. Super7 has 3.75 MOTU figures that would look great with it. You’d need to add some primary colors tho to make it He-Man worthy 😂

    That was pretty slick my friend very cool and awesome. When you put the first exhaust I thinking that would have been a great spot for a stand and apparently we were thinking the same thing because in the next scene you did it, pretty scary that we are having the same thoughts 😮 , but it was a good idea. That is so cool that you can get multiple projects out of one old toy. 👍
