They need to make a figure of Green leader, the A-Wing pilot who died, but took out the Executor.

In action figure form or in action fleet? They released an A-Wing with Green Leader figure in The Legacy Collection line. As for action fleet form, the red and green A-Wings that were released referred to the figure as "Rebel Pilot", however the flightsuit both figures wore were the same as Green Leader's.

I'll have to check that out. I passed that one by because I already had an A-Wing.

Does anyone remember my Assault Gunboat custom I had in the works? Well I finally found some parts for D. Now I just need parts for E.




A:  Body from X-Wing
B:  Top wing from a Shuttle
C:  Folding wings from a Shuttle
D:  F-4F3 Wildcat Wings (see below)
E:  Still looking


Here are the wings I found off ebay for D




Slowly but surely its coming along!

I have to clean up my fodder bins so I will look through them as I go to see if I have something for E.

GL1, for E you could scratch build the box sections using foamcore, then coating it in polystyrene  sheeting.

I've been avoiding the Vehicle's section, out of laziness, I suppose.  I was wrong to do so!  Great work, Dave!

Small update on the Royal Guard Interceptor. I originally painted this with just a paint brush when I first did it but I felt like I could improve it. Plus I never added the white markings to it so I just decided to redo it. I'm doing it the same way as I did my white TIE Fighter - I spray painted the whole thing, now I'm repainting the panels black, adding the white markings to the laser cannons and wings, and touching up the cockpit as well as the engines.












I'd say its about 50% done.

Like it GL1... I love the paint job so far and am very interested to see what the further 50% adds to it.

hmmm.... never liked the white coloring on the royal gaurd tie fighter.  I accented mine with silver and black only and left off the white.  But if your trying to stay true to the titanium model it looks superb!

I can't wait to see your gunboat custom.  I'm sure that if you got some styrene sheets (or cheap for-sale sign plastic) that you could whip up a couple missile boxes pretty easy.  any chance you could post a wip or two when you start puting it together?
