Allen from Stiltbeast Studios builds a creepy FNAF-inspired robot prop head using only dollar store finds for under $20. The build demonstrates how cheap, everyday toy robots and dollar tree materials can be kitbashed into a convincing haunted house-quality prop. The episode focuses on the head construction as a proof-of-concept for the technique, with a full-body build potentially to follow based on viewer interest.
VanOaksProps walks through a screen-accurate recreation of Rey's scavenged Star Destroyer capacitor bearing from The Force Awakens, starting from a common screwdriver cap and custom 3D-modeled parts. The build covers digital redesign of the prop's distinctive fin and collet details, followed by resin printing and assembly. A thorough painting and weathering sequence—using primer, matte black, Rub n Buff, acrylic washes, and Fuller's Earth—delivers a convincingly gritty, battle-worn metallic finish. A free 3D model file is provided for viewers to replicate the build themselves.
