Thank you!! We really love Droid Depot! Two droids is probably enough for our apartment, and yet, I'm already trying to convince myself that we need another just so we can experience it again lol! 🤓💖
I personally LOVED the experience. I built both a B and R series. Even if you never “use” the droid, it’s still one of the coolest display items you can have in your Star Wars collection. To make them even more unique, you can also paint them
Thank you so much!! Simon has been playing the drums with one hand to practice while he heals, but R5-87 is *really good* so he’s giving Simon a run for his money 😂💖.
Comparing this to the light saber build, this comes off as more "techy" and "gadgetty," whereas the light saber build gives the vibe of mystical magical force. Idk if that makes sense. Lol. Idk which experience I'd rather do - they both look fun!
That totally makes sense!! Very different vibes from Savi’s Workshop but still Star Wars and still fun!! It feels magical when they activate the droids, but not as magical as when Yoda speaks and the lights turn green at Savi’s! 💖🥰
@@nerdydaydreamsyes I think I need to get that….i hope Simon is ok after his surgery…hopefully we can share a drink in March when I come down…best to you both
I built a red and white R5 unit because I wanted him to look like R2 but with red accents and I like the R5 head unit, but as I was making it, someone commented about making sure the motivator is ok on it and it took me a few hours to get the reference to the one in the New Hope. lol I love your build.
omg hahaha that’s amazing!! When I built my lightsaber, one of the cast members there asked me where I was from, and I panicked and said “earth” instead of somewhere from the Star Wars universe 😆. It’s hard in the moment sometimes!! Thanks for the love for our R5!! -Mary 🤓💖
@@nerdydaydreams perfectly fine to panic. I got approached by Kylo Ren when I was wearing my newly bought Sith cloak and I shyly froze up too. he asked if I have my anger under control or something and i said I hope so then got very nervous and awkward. but got a chuckle. And the last time I went was the first time in probably 15 years so I got to experience the Star Wars area for the first time so my wife and I went there very early and as we were walking in, we were the only ones on the southern path inward and Boba Fett was on the roof tops watching us enter and I was fanboying with my Boba Fett backpack on. Wish I took a picture.
@@channelfunnygoose163 aww I really appreciate that!! Kylo Ren is so intimidating lol!! and, I could totally see that happening with Boba Fett too. 😄Next time! 💖
I can’t wait to build my droid! im going next week and have already done some research on what I want. I think im going to do a purple version on r2! Thanks for the helpful videos!
yay! I'm so excited for you to get to build one. R2 is THE best, so I can totally see why you'd want to build one. 🥰 thanks so much for your kind comment! -Mary 💖
I got to go! it was so fun. sadly, they didn’t have the purple r2 dome head, and they didn’t have purple panels. luckily they did have pink panels which are my favorite color! my droid is so cute, and I can’t wait to see what my droid has to offer. thank you for providing me information and being an amazing RUclipsr!
Nice! I was wondering how expensive it would be. It was actually cheaper than I thought. I'd love to do this and the lightsaber build, but I'm on the wrong side of the Atlantic at the moment. 😂 One day, maybe.
Some day I'd love to go to the Droid Depot and build a droid. If/When that happens, I'll build a C-series. Probably a shorter unit. No idea on the name though. Watching random Droid Depot videos is actually how I 1st found your channel, btw! Watching droid depot videos lead me into just seeing Galaxy's Edge in general videos, which brought me to your channel.
I’m manifesting this trip for you!! You’d love Galaxy’s Edge so much. Also, I love the C-Series - Chopper cracks me up! Ahh that’s so cool that you found us originally in that way. Thanks so much for sticking around!! 🤓💖
Seen both your Droid builds , love them , sadly I’ve never been to galaxy’s edge nor will I probably ever get to go but I do have a BB unit and an R6 on the way . My boys both have an R2 and R3 . All bought through EBay
I’m so glad you’ve been able to watch our videos and bring some of the Galaxy’s Edge magic home with eBay finds! I do hope you get to visit the park someday, but in the meantime, your collection sounds amazing. All droids are special no matter where you find ‘em!! 💖
I would have of gone option 3 head with black legs and the red accents on front of body and sides of the legs. To me that would have looked more imperial spy. But it still is a nice droid.
Omg we didn’t know there was an app! I googled it when I saw your comment, and it looks so cool. I’ll definitely be downloading that. Thanks for the tip! If you’re able to come to Disneyland (or world!), I highly recommend building a droid or lightsaber. Both are such cool experiences for Star Wars fans. 💖🤓 -Mary
I have three. One is identical to yours with the exception that mine is totally black. With my three they will communicate with each other. I assume that yours should be able to talk to the BB unit. Hope you enjoy.
Omg what!! I had no idea that they could communicate. That is so cool!! Thank you so much for sharing, I can’t wait to try it out with ours. 💖 also, amazing that you have three! What other two did you build?
How many parts do you select to make the custom R series? It appeared to be: 1] Body 2] Dome 3] Side legs 4] Center leg 5] Leg covers 6] Arm covers Was that all?
Yes!! You got it!! You can also get an optional personality chip (and a carrying backpack) when you pay for your droid build. Both cost extra, and there are lots of other fun add-ons! 🤓💖
Worth building in CA, but not FL. This is because the price of a Droid Build in FL is $20 more. Similar with Savi builds. Savi builds in FL are $30 more AND as of 26 July, customers cannot purchase extra scrap after a build. Pay a lot more, get a lot less.
@@nerdydaydreams Disney knows people who go to FL do it as "once in a lifetime" which means WEW can upcharge for whatever they please (legacy bundles are $30 more in FL as well) & the customers will just pay it without taking any extra thought. CA initially also raised their build prices, but rolled it back. Many say it's demand which is false. Savi builds in FL are plentiful before the price rise and still can be plentiful. It's pure corporate greed. Early this year FL Savi added fine print hinting at surge pricing for Savi builds. Being paid upfront someone who doesn't know pricing would just pay the inflated cost and then be scared to cancel with fear of not getting the spot back if price dropped.
oooh, that totally makes sense. I think you're right about it being a once in a lifetime spot to travel. Dang, I didn't realize the legacy bundles were priced higher there too!

Oh wow, that is amazing! XD Love this idea of a shop! Appreciate the R5 love!

Cute min! Love when you’re the star of the show every once in a while!!
He says he loves it and you!!

Ahh, I love that you’ve built both B and R!! And I totally agree - even just to display is worth it. Painting them is a great idea!! 😍
Building a custom droid looks so fun! R5-87 is a great name. I can see trying to drum battle with him... 🥁
Thank you so much!! Simon has been playing the drums with one hand to practice while he heals, but R5-87 is *really good* so he’s giving Simon a run for his money 😂💖.
Love the drum kit, definitely going to have to get one for my droid. Really wish Australia had a droid depo/ Disneyland.
Okay, yes!! We need Disney parks in Australia!! 💖💖💖
You could always paint the front "arm" panels orange to match the head top panels.
Ooooo, great idea!! I’ve been thinking it would be so much fun to paint a custom droid! 🤓💖
I was thinking the opposite. Paint the orange to red

great video simon! The R units are so cool, alot more customization compared to the BB units
Thank you so much!! I totally agree, there are so many cool ways to customize the R units. We love Droid Depot! 🤓💖 -Mary
Think I need to build him next trip
I thought of you when we went back and got the drum set attachment!! We’re obsessed! What a great idea from Disney 😍
@@nerdydaydreamsyes I think I need to get that….i hope Simon is ok after his surgery…hopefully we can share a drink in March when I come down…best to you both
Great choice in Droid design😮😁😉

Thank you! 💖 Ahhh we’ve got to get you over here! I’m so surprised Disneyland Paris isn’t building their own Batuu. 😮
Funny you mentioned painting the front panels. I want to paint the top of the head from orange to red.

This makes me sad. My 6 year old daughter would love this. Too bad for her that Disney will never see another dime from me.
there are so many great artists on etsy who make droids and droid parts too, as an alternative!
Why not? Was it expensive?
How many parts do you select to make the custom R series? It appeared to be:
1] Body
2] Dome
3] Side legs
4] Center leg
5] Leg covers
6] Arm covers

We almost were 😂. Simon spent a bunch of time looking for C-unit parts and then ended up going with R!! 💖
What a disappointment galaxy edge was.
Waste of time and money.
Sorry that’s how you feel! We love Galaxy’s Edge. It’s our favorite land. 🤓

So, long story short, it's not worth it.
