I am building a C-3PO robot with an EZ robot brain and servo motors. I am starting with a large plastic model of C3PO and I will make him hear, see, talk and move as well as make him interactive.

I had to replace C3PO's neck with part of a large medicine bottle. Then I added a small metal rod for the head to pivot on.I added servos to his neck and shoulders. I am not sure how many I will use in his arms. Not much room in them. His head can look up and down and left and right.
Great project, good to see it's on the way.
I am glad C3PO is taking shape. I will be opening the panel on his back to fit his EZ B4. I am looking for good voice clips for C3PO. I might need to sample some from the movies. And now I am adding another robot to the mix. I just got an Omnibot 2000!
Im sure you will have many voice clips to choose from.
Congrats on the Omni2000.
Will C3PO be all polished and shiny once finished?
I will be painting him as shiny as I can. I need to 3d print him some elbows, the ones he came with are not close to right.
Now thats a pretty nice collection May the 4th be with you!
