Not bad for 'a project that will sit in a box for years'... ;D

Sadly, there are already plenty already in the box to keep it company :(

What's more annoying is that I suspect these figures will be in PoundStretchers and The Works for a few quid in six months ::)

Just given my son the falcon set for his birthday. He really likes it. As others have commented, their is a real discrepancy in the size/scale of some of the figures- The At At driver looks perfect, but the snowtroopers and the Hoth rebels are a bit too tall with tiny blasters. No Leia in any of the sets though! What's that about?

Great paints by the way @turbo ben  :)

I only paid 5€ per set of nine figures, so no problem for me there. In fact, I'd be happy if they were, so I could get the other packs cheap aswell!  ::)

I think its just we that worry about the scale, I don't think our kids care...

The missing Leia is a problem though and Jabba would also be nice to have. :?

Nice work!

I've been wanting to get the SW Command Snow Speeders and AT-AT's, but haven't seen them sold separately.

Nice work.  I bought all the sets except for the big star destroyer and falcon sets.  I am agonizing over whether to start another painting project with them.  I don't think I have a Boba fig though.  Which set was he in?
This is my boomstick!

Jango Fett is in the Arena Assault set and some over skinny female Fett looking figure is in the Epic Assault set. No Boba figure in the series I saw.

In Australia these sets have shifted into the bargain bins in most stores I've been to at massively reduced prices.

Ok got it.  I have those figs then.  In my area ToysRUs had them discounted as well.

There's one set called "Desert Escape", which includes Boba Fett, as well as Han, Chewie, 3PO, R2, some Sandtroopers and a Jedi/Sith.
Worth getting it, at least in my eyes ;)

Ah, thanks for pointing that out. It never showed up near me :( I missed out on C3PO also then in that set and the whole Rebel alliance pack:(

Great paint job!
Command is a fun set of figures. While the recent sales don't look good for the future of the line, I really hope it'll continue.

If that's a quickie job I'd hate to see what happens when you take your time. They look excellent. I bought myself some of the Republic clone troopers and they are nice little models, now I am even more inspired.
 :o


I second this sentiment. If these are sub standard paint jobs on your part, then I shudder to contemplate your competition standards! lol

Very inspiring and frankly I see no good reason why these cannot be used for 54mm scale skirmish gaming ala Inquisitor. 8)

I did not see this set yet. This would be just what I need to complete my figures. Will have to look for it... :?
