Title: Imperial Forward Command Center
Post by: Jake James on December 18, 2014, 05:52:44 PM: This is an re-purposed Cobra Terror Drome that has been 'Imperialized". It now serves as a forward command center for my Imperial forces.

i have something similar in the works, a SW conversion, but mine is still missing a lot of parts. i didn't want to use the cobra head panels on the outer circle so i been thinking of replacing them and just adding more canons all around in place. or just cutting sheets of styrene to cover the empty space behind the cobra panels.

i really like how u did the computer screens and adding vader chamber underneath.

excellent job all around.

Post by: Jake James on December 20, 2014, 04:21:24 AM: Thanks for all the comments! Here are a few more pictures of conversions I did earlier this year. One was the GI Joe HQ playset and the other was a GI Joe Battle Platform playset. Both now serve my Imperial forces. I've since updated them a bit. Since the Star Wars line was severely lacking in playsets, I decided these from the Joe line would make excellent additions.

Can you folks imagine the sales Hasbro would have if they would re-release these JOE sets as SW playsets?

Off to the front page.
