FX-6 really is the Swiss Army knife of medical droids and a massive leap forwards from the Vintage FX-7. I'm missing a few of his additional arms and also one of the canisters, but I still really like him. It’s a shame he didn't come on wheels to give him some locomotion but the detail, the articulation in his arms and the variety of different tools on his leg attachments are all very welcome. FX-6 is really the droid to help your Chopper Droid slice and splice Darth Vader until he fits nicely into his new armour.

See my article on the creation of Darth Vader here: Emperor Palpatine and the Creation of Darth Vader.
The splatters of blood and goo on FX-6's body work really well and serve as a stark contrast to the pristine and clinical environment of the medical bay on Tantive IV where Padme is giving birth whilst Vader's body is reassembled by this bunch of droid butchers. The benevolence of the medical droids who deliver Luke and Leia offsets nicely the indifference of the droids in Palpatine's makeshift chop-shop.
All Star Wars action figures, vehicles, collectibles and Star Wars toys shown on this website are the 3.75 inch scale and from my own private Star Wars collection unless otherwise stated. Where possible original vintage accessories have been used but in some instances I have placed Kenner Star Wars figures with either reproduction weapons and accessories or for Hasbro figures close approximations have been used. This is mostly the case for modern Star Wars lightsabers where the correct item can be very difficult to identify on some ocassions. Vintage Star Wars action figures are shown with their original weapon or accessory when I have them. When a vintage Kenner action figure is shown with an accessory which is not original I have tried to point this out where possible.
All of the Star Wars action figures shown were purchased second hand, usually incomplete, and in bulk. They have been reunited with their original weapons and accessories where we could get hold of them.
