I had *just* started looking at those mega rig shuttles late last week on eBay, thinking 'This would work.'

Now I have to see if I can snag some before everyone else copies you :)

Great work!

woodface, I make my own with a 25mm hole punch and the clear plastic packaging you get with a lot of purchases.

Thanks they look really good. The thinness of them almost makes it look like the figures shadow rather than a chunky base.  I'm tempted to give this a go myself cheers!

Many thanks all, for your kind comments.

...and now over to Hangar 3-5 at Mos Eisley. Here is Peli Motto.



I could do with some of the droids in this picture, to work for Peli. Anyone seen resin prints on Etsy or eBay UK?

Excellent, I have some that were rescaled for me to fit 28mm.

I am not sure if they are Skullforge or someone else though. So sorry I don't know the specific, but yes they are available. :)

"Mechano Droids" - they are indeed Skullforge  ;)

if you are stuck, Wargames3D does them - good quality, but pretty pricey compared to some of the UK Printers I use.

Thanks, I've found them. Whilst looking, I came across Moff Gideon and his Praetorian Guards and they took my fancy, too!   ;)

Judging by the Raider, third from right, it's a throw-in for the Raiders. Or maybe he's just killed a  Greater Krayt Dragon and in it's gizzard was the biggest Krayt Dragon pearl ever! I finished three more Tuskens, so I thought a group shot was in order.

Cheers.

I have these 5 'smugglers'. Can anybody identify them?

Are they:

a) named characters and if so, what race/planet?

b) if not named, what race/planet?

My thanks, in advance.

Good to see more Tuskens  :)

Re: Partisans - the first two are Tognath from Yar Togna

Called Benthic & Eddie…they are “eggmates”… honestly, not making this up  lol

Not sure which is which, but it might say in the Rogue One source book I’ve got stashed away somewhere.

Many thanks AKULA, that's the first two, then. Although, as you say, which is which?

I got some more info on them, now you have identified them. The Star Wars Alien Archive says they are Benthic and Edrio. Apparently, the two 'eggmates' joined Saw Gerrera's rebel cell on Jedha.
