The B1 Battle droids are all hard plastic, which is a positive.

However, a number of the parts are quite small or fiddly.

And they have more individual parts than the Clone troopers had.

In particular, the head comes in two pieces. So for this I decided that I would keep the smaller back part on the sprue and glue the main part to this in situ. This worked out pretty well, and probably prevented me from losing a few bits ?

I tried out just one at first, to get a handle on the steps that worked for me, then rolled this out.

I have been doing a bit each evening, and now have 20 of the 36 B1’s built.

I have found the arms a bit fiddly still – same as often here where the arms have to be connected to each other, I feel I need a third hand to hold things together. But they are rapidly rolling off the production line.
