OK it's been a while now as I was busy with my kitchen.
I did make some progress on my Endor project here are some pics.









Next step will be to make the Bunker and Ewok war machines from scratch

No amount of planning will ever replace dumb luck.

Thanks guys.
I am also trying hard to find a suitable Liea in the strike team uniform.
I don't think MM made one so I will probably need a conversion substitute.
Any ideas on that would be apprieciated

How about this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/STAR-WARS-ACTION-FLEET-MICRO-MACHINES-BATTLE-PACKS-ENDOR-VICTORY-/261123740355?pt=UK_ToysGames_DiecastVehicles_DiecastVehicles_JN&hash=item3ccc3012c3

I'm confused with all the different scales of the Micro Machines stuff, so this might not be what you're after or it's the wrong scale.
The picture is small, but it looks like Leia in her green camo uniform. I suggest you do some googling on Action Fleet just to be sure.

Thanks for the link but you are correct about the wrong scale. The action fleet figures ar bigger more like 25mm. The normal MM figures, like the ones I am using, are 20mm so they really don't mix to well. I don't know why they did that? I am thinking about converting a strike team figure by replacing the head with Leia's (no hemet) costley to do this as I will destroy a figure to do it but I havn't come up with anything else yet and she is pretty important to get right.

Bummer...

Yeah it's even worse than that... Add to this their spacecraft/vehicle ranges where they mix speeder bikes, lambda shuttles and star destroyers like they were all the same scale...

It's frustrating when searching on Ebay for vehicles to your 28mm miniatures or your X-Wing Miniature Game. Quite often the seller doesn't know what they're selling, and there is also an obvious resistance to adding measurements in the ads. Sorry for the rant... :?

Looks very, very cool! I hope the Imperials stomped those Ewoks good.  :D
