Title: Help in X-Wing game type for Galactica???
Post by: rumacara on 20 December 2016, 09:55:54 PM

Hello all

Does someone know of any game and miniatures from the same scale as X-WIng game for Galactica?
I´m searching for vipers, raptors and cylons fighters, not the big ships.

Thanks all

Rui

Studio Bergstrom looks to be about half the size(?) and cheaper

I bought some of the studio bergstrom vipers a few years ago (to go with the battlestar galactica board game plastics).

They are nifty little ships  ;D

You know, if you're working on one, you might want to take a look at the one Battlestar Galactica "flight sim" game that came out a few years ago to find some additional craft types beyond the Viper, Raptor, Raider, and Heavy Raider from the series...

Giger, you pposted it just before i do. lol
I came across those and they seem a bit better than the others.
I think i will order from them 2 or 3 vipers and raptors to see how they look.
Many thanks.

The best ones quality wise in that sort of scale are the cosmos models ones.

They are showing as currently out of stock on starship modellers, although they do get restocked fairly regularly .... or you could get them from eBay - they are 1/350 scale.
