2-1B (x2) Star Wars Legion: Rebel Specialists Medical Droids

Today we have two copies of the Medical Droid segment of the Rebel Specialists expansion for Star Wars Legion. The first one I painted I went with the colour scheme seen on 2-1B/Two Onebee, one of the Medical Droids we saw working on Luke in Hoth’s Echo Base early on in The Empire Strikes back. The somewhat battered Blue-Turquoise scheme turned out pretty decently.

For the second droid, I wanted to paint it in a different colour, and felt that a beaten copper would work well, since Star Wars – and particularly the Rebels – really have a lot of brown in their palette (along with blue, actually).

Both of these models had their arms slightly realigned. As push-fit PVC models, they only come with one “proper” way to go together, so a little bit of carving on the arm and head tabs allowed me to vary their poses just slightly to help both look a little less identical.

These were both cleaned up in January and the arm and head nubs were modified, though the final gluing-together assembly was done alongside the painting process, so I’m not sure if these work for Anne’s 2026 Miniature Assembly Challenge. Regardless, they do qualify for Dave Stone’s Paint What You Got Challenge 25-26 as they wre painted before the end of February.

A couple of weeks ago, we had Darth Vader, today we have Luke.

This version of Luke is the “Commander” version that was first (and I think, only) available in the Star Wars Legion 1st edition Core Box set.

Obviously, this is the Empire Strikes Back version of Luke in his Bespin fatigues. So, as I like to say – nothing could possibly go wrong!

I’m not a particular fan of OSL, but in this case, with a glowing lightstick next to his face, I felt obliged to “show the glow” as Luke prepares to dance the night away at some underground rave.

And here he is again, squaring off against the Vader from the core set. This model was assembled in January and actually finished a couple of weeks ago. I’ve not been feeling much up to either taking photos, cropping photos or writing blog posts lately, so this one has been finished for awhile and counts towards both Dave Stone’s Paint What You Got Challenge 25-26, and also Anne’s 2026 Miniature Assembly Challenge.

Prepare for another one of those onslaughts of daily posts for the next little while as I try to get February done and out of the way. Hopefullly it’ll be finished and have a round-up by this time next week – it may depend on how many more models I manage to finish off today – we’re now at two and counting…
