Please try to make a big spaceship from pet / shampoo bottles. 10x

Great build, the best part of your channel is how you show these cheaper and more accessible techniques.

The reason Kinder eggs were banned was not because of the capsule. It was because of the toys that come inside it. Most of them have small parts that can be inhaled or ingested by small children. Many Kinder toys require assembly. I guess some accidents must have happened in the U.S. that generated lawsuits. Kinder eggs are everywhere here in Portugal and around Europe.

The feet definitely have an R2 feel to them. Cool little bot!

The weathering is spot on here Dave! Looks like a fun little desk pet to have around watching you......always watching.

Love this lil guy! I like the minimal detailing, a little went a long way on this one.

A lovely Bot indeed, makes me wonder how a kid can mistake plastic for chocolate but wonders never cease

as for the kinder eggs with capsules, i find them often, then there is a new one (not kinder) that has endangered animal toys in them within an actual egg in them. the starfish gave me ideas for tentacle legs on something.

Ah, the Kinder capsule dilemma... they really want to be minions or [if they get legs] R2D2. Sir, you bravely travelled through that valley and out the other side. You get the, "better than the toy inside" Kinder Award. So often their 'banana-ness' gets the better of us Brits and we end up throwing the little devils out when we sort our scratch-building materials. Great Job!

A little tip for you the rust powder is in fact crushed burnt umber pastel😊 An amazing little craft by the way that robot is top-shelf mate👌

Cool! Love that industrial type of blue color.

I lived in Germany as a young teen from 93-97 and had sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo many kinder eggs and now I really wish I saved those yellow capsules!!!

Very cool build! 👍👍

The little robot reminds me of the aesthetics of the Japanese Machinen Krieger plastic models.

I loved the 90ies version of those eggs, as you were able to chain them because they head almost lego like bits on the ends. They also had versions where you could attach stuff that was in the capsule sometimes.

Great job

Awesome job! Love how the choice in colors gives it an Art Deco vibe, something to keep in mind for future projects.

They makes great whistling arrow heads.

It's so fun to watch someone who loves their hobby like you do. I love making little guys too

Love it. Love it’s simplicity. So clean.

That’s so good! Thanks for sharing! ❤️

Cool! 😮That clear plastic rod also becomes a lense, as well as a connector.

Great job and enjoyed watching your process!

In the us there is anlaw against having non edible objects in food, simple reason to why they are banned

That is so cool Dave! I like the whole model but the blue really makes it look nice. I think the weathering is just right too. Thanks for sharing this.

YAY! Now I know how to make movieable legs for my bots! Thanks Dave! This little guy is really cute. Do you sell them? I would like to have this guy. Also, thank you for such clear and detailed explainations without a lot of side talk. You are one of the best at that. I watch your videos and I feel like I can also do what you did because I can see clearly what you are doing as you explain. My mom has been carrying Tic-Tac's in her purse as long as I can remember and I am now in my 50's, now the Tic-Tac's come in a similar shape as what you used here, the bigger package does anyways and she has started bringing me stuff like that so I am going to follow your video and make this guy.

Glad you found use for this Egg capsule. This little bot is adorable

Great job Doc. Use should do a tank with a crew

Looks awesome!

I find more enjoyment in the painting!

Another great one!

Gorgeous.

Looks like the basic start to the robot from G-Force. LOL.

Awesome little bot you created here Doc. Strong hints of an R2 unit with this one, though the head isn't a seperate unit. I really like that you kept this one minimalistic, you have a much stronger will than mine. I would have covered that bot with greeblies before I stopped. That being said, I do think that the backside is calling for a couple little square pieces. Either as part of the earbud backpack or a utilility belt. 😁 Thanks for sharing your creation process on this one, awesome job sir, keep on keeping on!!

Super cool Dave..

Has that nice retro future style like Big Guy and Rusty-esque

Awesome job 👍👍👍👍

Another awesome build Dave! Love that little guy. Awesome Greedo shirt too!

Came out nice.

If you don’t have any droid figures this is a good way to make them

That paint technique looks really good for a propane tank or a water heater style tank.

Another winner!

My favorite so far.

That looks really cool. You need to start smuggling kindereggs in for your builds hahaha. Get a little under the table trade at shows 😉

cool, I have collected those prison wallets and been trying to figure out what to do with them. I got those for my kids and they always give me the plastic containers. I turned one into a Minion once.

Heres an idea, try making a robot’s head from an empty citadel bottle.

I was being processed for a work Permit to the U.S. and tge officer told me never to bring one of these into the U.S. I thought he was pulling my leg but I kept a straight face as he never explained why

Neat! Do you coat them with a protective lacquer or anything afterwards?

R2 1/2P, 1/2 Pint 😅... Great li'l robot 👍

that's great !

You can buy a gun at walmart but the capsules are highly illegal and you gotta go to mexico to get them xD so weird.

👍

🔥🔥🔥🔥

Quick historical trivia: The reasons Kinder Eggs are not allowed in America is actually because the F.D.A. has deemed that if it does not hold nutritional value, it is illegal to put in food. This was made a federal law, because there were cases of parents making complaints and pressing lawsuits against companies like Kinder due to the hazard this presented children. The most notable nail in the coffin being when back in the 1920s, a child had eaten the chocolate egg, opened the capsule inside, built the toy, and swallowed a part of the toy. Choking and unfortunately passing due to asphyxiation. The mother of the child sued Kinder over the incident and that's been the law ever since.

I have hundreds of those from my time stationed in Germany. Made a bot myself out of one.

Dave I totally love your work and videos; thanks man!! You go slow and explain everything. So interesting. Is there any way I could buy some of your robots?

The plastic part is not banned you can still get then at some import stores without the chocolate outer layer

Really awesome video I got into customizing I made my deathwatch mandalorian action figure a cape

Noooombre, pa. Esos huevitos hasta tirados en la calle. Le quedó macizo. Las patas no le piden nada a las de hasbro. Un saludo pal maclunkey.

Idk I'm pretty sure I seen hundreds of these in Walmart yesterday. Though I'm in Montana where we raise our kids with common sense and respect.

Rather appropriate of you to be wearing a Star Wars t-shirt. The robot could have been R2D2 predecessor or cheaper cousin...nice simple build.

R2d2 now has a little bro

They can’t buy Kinder Eggs, but they can buy a Glock instead😂

egg machine eggs and the prizes inside into a set of minis.

It has something to do with the fda and having a non food item inside a food item.

These have been banned?! I can find these at my neighborhood gas stations here in Miami. LOL

Don't say it Don't say it. Amoongus

The toys inside the capsule are amazingly well designed. If a kid is stupid enough to mistake them for food then maybe they shouldn't be in the gene pool anyway. Just joking.

It's not the capsules that are banned in the US but the toys inside them as they are choking hazards. I think it's total BS as there are more choking hazards in a single Lego set vs 100 kinder eggs.

Nice channel my friend. You are a bit like me,, collecting things,,(like plastic Easter eggs,,plastic small bottles,, bottlecaps and plastic clear test tubes and the list goes on)',parts,, for what reason. Maybe the reason is this,, building stuff.

That came out as a pretty cool banned build. I like it very cool. But I just kinda realized that a lot of your robot builds really remind me of HEAVY METAL influenced am I right or wrong?

This looks like the little gernade bots in Atomic Heart

Not illegal here my wife busy them for the kids all the time.

they sell them in the us lol they have them at walmart

Try to make the character the bottle is based on out of the character shampoo bottles

👊🏻🐴💙💜💙💜💙

🥚🍫

I've seen Kinder here in Ohio. They might have been banned before but that's probably over.

can you show how to make a gun for minis from scratch

lmao freedom land for sure. cant even have kinder eggs

En chile igual los eliminaron! Fue uno de los dias mas tristes de mi infancia! Todo por la gorda bachelet! U_U

I used to keep weed in those.

Kinder Eggs?? No way!! AR-!5's?? No problem.
