What this video covers

VanOaks Props compiles six of his favorite Star Wars helmet and droid prop builds into a single hour-long marathon video. Projects span a wide range of characters — from bounty hunters and protocol droids to desert warriors — each constructed using 3D printing, paint, and hands-on prop-making techniques inspired by the original films. The video highlights weathering, lighting effects, and creative problem-solving throughout each build. Links to the individual source videos and associated files are provided in the description.

Key takeaways

  • Six distinct Star Wars builds covered in one continuous 60-minute watch: RA-7, K-3PO, X-Wing pilot helmet, IG-88, Boushh, and Tusken Raider
  • Builds combine 3D printing with traditional prop-making, painting, and weathering for screen-inspired results
  • Lighting effects are incorporated into select builds for added display impact
  • Aimed equally at cosplayers, collectors, and display/man-cave enthusiasts

Real YARNABY Animatronic! 🧶😱 #poppyplaytime

Wicked Makers' Jay and Jaimie construct a full animatronic version of Yarnaby from the horror game Poppy Playtime, built from steel and driven by pneumatics. The build goes beyond aesthetics — the team stress-tests the animatronic's jaw mechanism using a ballistic gel arm to see whether it could realistically bite through a limb. The video blends behind-the-scenes fabrication footage with chaotic prop-testing in classic Wicked Makers style. It sits alongside their broader catalog of mascot-horror animatronics inspired by FNAF, Poppy Playtime, and similar franchises.
