Please refer to Wookiepedia for reference pictures of this droid. Also if you have access to viewing the Star Wars, Clone Wars episode 5, season 1 called "Rookies" you can see these PLNK droids in action, and also from other angles. (I have not seen all of the episodes yet to be able to refer you to other good ones). I did find this picture on the internet, which does give all of the views needed for someone to create their own version of this droid on their own.

Other Items Needed

Wilton 8 Inch by 8 Inch Square Cake Pan (Find one without handles, you want it completely square, and without a teflon coating. I found mine at Joann's ETC)

LED Lights  (Find those multicolot LED light kits that are sold in dollarr storesor in oriental gift shops. They range from $2.99 to about $9 but look for the cheaper ones as long as they have a nice fluid motion during color transitions. Typically they are seen under lazer etched cyrstals, you will need three of these light kits.)

White Translucent Cutting Board (Use a small .5 Inch cutting board from the dollar store)

Battery Pack (Radio Shack or Fry's) (Find one that is rated for the LEDs you are using, typically 3 AA cell pack can power your LEDs for four or five days using alkaline cells, rechargeable even longer! You could even reuse the one that came on the LED light base if you are good at soldering.)

Step one: Remove the handles from the tubs.

Step two: Wash out the tubs with water and a mild soap to remove any oil residue from the outside of them.

Step three: Using 1/2 inch or 5/8inch MDF wood and the bottom of one of the tubs, draw put a pattern on the wood that would make it match the outside bottom of the tub. (If you look closely at the reference pictures you will understand why we are doing this.) Then take measurements to make the inside pieces of wood as well. I chose to use two smaller pieces and it saved a little on weight and use some of the spare wood I had laying around. Feel free to make one that fits perfectly on the inside should your skills be up to the task.
 
Step four: measure out 4 legs out of 2x4 wood, 18 inches long is a good start as you can always make them shorter. (I will post on what was my final choice in size in the next day or two.) Then measure out the feet using 2x6 wood, you want the feet to be centered on the leg, and to have an two inches at least between the front legs and the rear legs. In my pictures below you will not see what I just expressed because I had not seen the the first picture on this page that showed the the feet have notches on both side and are centered (so yeah I need to revisit that).
