Star Wars C-3PO and R2-D2 Model Kit
This Metal Earth kit contains six 4-inch square steel sheets that form detailed 3D replicas of C-3PO and R2-D2. The manufacturer recommends it for ages 14 and up. No glue or solder is required; you simply snip out the pieces and bend the tabs into place. It is a challenging build suited to patient hobbyists.
Assembly Tools and Workspace
You will need tweezers or small needle-nose pliers to handle the small parts and bend the connection tabs accurately. These tools are not included in the box. Ensure you have a well-lit, stable work surface and enough time to follow the step-by-step instructions carefully. The kit contains many intricate components that require fine motor control.
Build Process and Display
Assembly involves only mechanical fitting of laser-cut metal parts, so the finished models produce no heat, noise or power draw. The completed figures are intended for static display on a shelf or desk. Handle the thin steel pieces gently during construction to avoid bending them unintentionally.

Questions about this item
What comes in the box and do I need to buy tools separately?
The kit includes six 4-inch square steel sheets with laser-cut parts and illustrated instructions. Tweezers or small needle-nose pliers are recommended for bending tabs but are not included.
Is the 5262 kit a single model or a set with both droids?
The 5262 is a gift set containing both C-3PO and R2-D2 models built from the six included sheets.
The description says "Challenging" — how long does assembly usually take?
Build time varies by experience, but the challenging rating means several hours of careful snipping and tab-bending for each droid.
