Antares – Buddy Drone PSA

After buying the two buddy drone packs, I’m glad I bought both. The PSA is that you should buy both, if you want to create the drones exactly as shown in the Warlord promotional photos.

The top photo has Batter, Gun and Comptactor drones in it, but you’ll see that the Batter and Compactor drones have the same “main body”. The bottom photo has Shield, Camo and Medi drones in it, and again you’ll see that the right two have the same “main body”.

Here’s a photo of the sprues as shipped to me, with some helpful boxes around them.

The first thing is, that if you want to create exactly what is shown in the promo photos, you can’t do it because each pack comes with 3 different bodies but you need 2 of the same body as shown in the photos.

The second thing is…I don’t know if the bodies are super important. It feels like the arms are what define a drones job. So…who cares? I dunno.

In my photo, I’ve colour coded the boxes around what I think are matching sets from the promo photos. So if you’re staring at your sprue wondering how to put these together to get the same look, this should be how.
