You could probably split it open, it comes aprt in two halfs, and just build a card (plasticard) extension to make it taller.

did you see what I mean about the riser?  I cut mine to come out, I was gonna make a ship that was pretty much 1:1, and as big as it is, it would be, what,  a very small shuttle?

Yeah, that's what I was thinking.  Still, its mighty bloody kool as-is!  I think I can dress it out to use as a series of shipboard "sets" for photoshoots.  Maybe it could *pretend* to be a Ghtroc 720-series...  ;D

When I first got into collecting joes, again, back in 2004, I happened upon a lot of about 80 figures for less than 30 bucks shipped.  It got me hooked.

I'm hoping I can find something similar now that I am starting star wars figures, lol.

having trouble with getting decent articulation, though, :(

What a haul, Doc! You are going to need a bigger box for your parts pile.

I originally got into the SW figs(well ok at first for snowtroopers) for the gear.  I love all the little dio and accesory stuff you guys get, joes have none of the coolness of say a bar or a vid screen, or any of that.

Same reason I plan to pick up the ST figures on the clearance aisle, so I can update my terrordrome(well, rather my second drome, right seg?).

yep, the animated drome, as I call it.

The second one will be more tech focused and will either be for my SW guys or my B.A.T.s

I scored two animated boba Fett figs last week for $5 each for future customs. Oh, I bought an IronMaiden tour shirt, also.

Iron Maiden, now thats somthing I haven't thought about in a while, The Walkin Eddie was too cool back in the day.  I still think I have an old Live after Death concert VHS someplace around here.
