Power Droid variations - following on from short V thread

[Frunkstar]

Yeah all the shot V PD are missing the spike Ponch.

I really would like to know more about this light blue one I have though as I have never heard of it before, no one know anything??

 

[aussiejames]

Maybe some talk about the light blue in PBP/POCH discussions??

Fasincatingf thread Frank!

[aussiejames]

some plastic colour differences, while you're looking up there you may note different mould numbers as well

Nice one James, where exactly am I looking for the mould numbers as I can't see them for looking :lol:

Right took a shed load more photos of the Light blue PD next to the short V, as you can see the Light blue is much much lighter than even the short V one, I still need to do more photos as I noticed something, that being the thin plastic clicker has rounded edges on one & sharp on the other which was really noticeable on the photos from underneath when I zoomed right in, so I need to cross check it against some others, both standard & short v.

These are of the Light Blue (on the right) next to a Short V type

& this is the Light Blue (right) next to a standard PD with a light behind them as in the photos above of the short V next to it.

Hard to take pictures of the no. at the bottom of those Droids. Frank, are all your power droids variants ?

Was gonna say, how many variants you got?

 

[Frunkstar]

Only 3 I think :? maybe 4 dependant on coo's but never checked all the coo's

Awesome army Frank. The little one looks more of a teal coloured blue. Also with it having smaller orange side stickers, I wonder if it's a pre production piece some how. Might be worth emailing Ben Sheehan or Chris G with some pics. It never hurts to ask. Grant.

look though/past the clicker mechanism plastic- you'll see a backwards number ie. 3,4 or 5 (only the long V variants)

Now check all your legs to see if you have a 'grey' one?

Ok, how many different no. do you have inside does power droids ?

I have the no. 2,3,4 & 5

Is there a no. 1 and is there a no. 6 or more ?

 

[Frunkstar]

Nice one James, sorry only just spotted your reply, will have to double check them all see if I can see what I have, is there anything special about the grey legs one then? & any idea what the numbers are all about then? :?

I have never understood why there are all this rumbers on the figures, weapons, helmets etc. etc. But they can be found on a lot of the vintage star wars stuff. Maybe it was for better finding an error in the production :?
