The day before Jedi Loreen posted her Hardware Droid Caller I was browsing ebay, as I do when I have nothing else to do. I wasn't looking to buy anything but after typing in other star wars related things I came across this, I bidded and won it:

Well it arrived on Saturday and I'm pretty happy with it. Its not in the best shape but I think it looks fine, slightly weathered.
Here it is with the reflector.

And here it is at different angles:

In the last pic you can see the only thing I'm not happy about, the drip of white paint!!! Hopefully I'll be able to get that off and clean the whole thing up a wee bit. Other than that I love it, plus it only cost £1.20 which is nothing.
On a side note, the seller charged me £15 for postage, which at the time didn't really bother me but when it got here I noticed on the envelope how much it cost for postage and all it cost was £2.24. Theres no way the envelope and small bit of bubble wrap cost £12.76!!!! At the most they would have only cost £2 to £3. So I sent the seller a nice little email asking for a £10 refund. I'll just have to wait and see if he does it or not.
