Yeah it's a pretty cool feature, no idea why it was abandoned. After putting back together the AT-AT there's still room to rotate the wheel to raise or lower the figure. I just wish this feature was left in.

I am just wishing that hasbro would reinvigorate this line alltogether. I know one thing, I saw those Iron Man minihead playsets and immediately thought that perhaps they are dusting off the cobwebs of MM and AF. I think its time for a more refined Ask hasbro question.

This is great, I wish they would have made a good grappler Luke to go with it. Thanks once again for the advice. I guess Unreality too since he first found out.

I don't mean to thread jack but I saw the iron man head playsets as well and imediately thought of the micro-machine playsets!  however the iron man figures that come with it are almost 1 inch tall and reminded me of the small "unleashed" star wars "sculptures"...  or the holographic pack ins that came with some of the saga figs.   The just aren't small enough to remind me of true micro-machines!
come to think of it the only things that I've seen that come close to the micromachines were the han and chewie mini-figs that came with the Mel. Falcon transformer...

Been a while, eh?  ;D

I've been slowly getting back into the swing of customizing. I finally finished my Gold 4 Y-Wing. This is based off of Lt. Lepira's Y-Wing, the large scale Y-Wing which was a Toys R Us Exclusive. This has been repainted, and I'm including a comparison shot of the original Gold Leader Y-Wing and the new Gold 4 Y-Wing.







I also have figures for it as well. For Lt. Lepira, I took a Luke figure and painted his gloves and boots black, and painted that red stripe on his helmet white but left the 2 red circles. He almost has the same helmet as Luke. For the droid I spray painted it white, all I have to do is add the yellow markings.

Good to see you back! I will have you know I dropped a ton of cash on AF at CV because of you guys hooking me into these. This looks great. Look for it to show up on our fp!

Thanks guys, feels good to be back. The Y-Wing was repainted to exactly match the large scale vehicle. The body was gray while the domes on the top of the engines, as well as the "head" of the Y-Wing was a lighter gray, almost white.

Tamer, what AF ships did you end up buying?

I am getting ready to do a video of all my CV goodies. I got a few regular vehicles and some concept alpha series.
