Resistance Biker Scout

The Resistance has no qualms with re-purposing First Order equipment. Red on black isn't really their style... nor easy to camouflage. This Elite Speeder has been repainted to better suit their base on D'Qar and other temperate worlds. Biker Scouts provide armed escort and perimeter defense for Resistance bases and convoys, relying on heavy firepower and speed.

Pretty much a straight repaint of the Elite Speeder Bike, the first TFA merchandise purchase I made. The Biker is mostly Hrchek Kal Fas with new legs to better straddle the bike. Head is from Captain America Hydra Soldier. He reminds me of a Ralph McQuarrie concept, with that head and torso. Thanks for looking!

This is the most amazing vehicle concept Ive seen using TFA fodder. Awesome work! You should send this in for Hasbro's photo contest and show them what true craftsmen can do. Bravo Forceflow!

Awesome work indeed the speeder and figure would fit into the TFA era perfectly.

Well thank you. Not sure how picky they are about non-canon customs. Couldn't hurt, I guess.

Thanks, Ron! I think it fits in because it blends old and new. I was researching speeder bikes to get some ideas when I noticed the entire back half is from ROTJ. Basically has bigger vanes and guns.

Great job on painting the speeder! The Hydra head works really well for the trooper, great eye. This is a really nice addition to the Resistance military.
