Gonk / EG-6 Power Droid |
Click on images to enlarge.
This is the EG-6 Power droid better known
as Gonk. Gonk first appeared on the Jawa
Sandcrawler in A New Hope and has appeared
in every Star Wars movie.
There has been 2 primary versions of Gonk
with a third slight variant. The differances
in the 2 primary models is the length of
the body. The first version was 2x4, this
ended up being unbalanced and I wasn't really
happy with it. The second version was 2x3
and balanced, I was much happier with this
version.
The third slight variant replaces the 2x2
plate and 1x1 round plate on the top of Gonk
with one of the 1x2 click hinge plates next
to a 1x2 plate. I am just happier with the
way this version looks.
At the bottom of the page I have included
a set of directions so you can build your
own Gonk.
Let me know what you think on LUGNET.

Here are both versions of Gonk. As you can
see the smaller version works much better. |
If you like Gonk and would like to build
one yourself here is a set of directions.
Just click to see a full page view of the
directions.
