Sebastijan Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 (edited) Hi everyone! Let me first welcome you to the Star Wars group build! There are a few simple rules, which must be followed during the duration of this event. Group build is active from September 1st 2014 until May 4th 2015. Please open a new in-progress thread for each of your builds. Eligible are all figures, vehicles, objects, walkers, spaceships,... from Episodes I-VI + Expanded Universe (books, comic books, cartoons,...) No what-ifs, but given the expanse of Star Wars universe, this is a rule that can be bent quite a lot (for example uglies with TIE cockpits bolted to Y-wing engines for example) And last and most important rule - HAVE FUN! May the Force be with you! Edited September 2, 2014 by Sebastijan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigasshammm Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 What to build next? The big brown box has two AMT Millenium Falcons in it thy got water damaged during our flood. Regular version and the cut away. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pete Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Build the B-1B! :) And if that's not an option, do the shuttle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigasshammm Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 I'm trying to sell the B-1 lol. May do shuttle. It's a pretty bleak kit though iirc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sebastijan Posted November 19, 2014 Author Share Posted November 19, 2014 A shot I took this Saturday at our Nats just for encouragement! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigasshammm Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Bandai kits are in. Just got a payment request from HLJ. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nicholassagan Posted November 20, 2014 Share Posted November 20, 2014 Sweet. Mine'll be coming shortly, too!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigasshammm Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Just got my box of Bandai kits. Surprised at the amount of parts! Boxes are super sexy as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike C Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Would X-Wing with Jolly Rogers marking be allowed? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sebastijan Posted January 23, 2015 Author Share Posted January 23, 2015 No, unfortunately not. There's many options in the expanded universe, so the jolly roger would be eligible only if you would do it in reference to some book/comic book. No VF-84/-103 I'm affraid Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigasshammm Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 New kits are up for preorder from Bandai 1/48 AT-ST again with closed windows??? 1/12 R2-D2 and R5-D4 1/72 Tie Fighter Same prices as before 16$ n change at HLJ. Feb and March release dates. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Fondlebottom Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Closed windows if it's accurate to the ESB AT-ST, but it seems they are indeed going RotJ with open eyes http://www.gunjap.net/site/?p=229052 Still not sold on their stuff tbh, trenchlike panel lines and toyish features. As long as they get these "must haves" out of their way and make more interesting subjects I'm fine with that though, like that R5-D4! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As long as they get these "must haves" out of their way and make more interesting subjects I'm fine with that though, like that R5-D4! Hmmm the picture they had on HLJ had the eyes closed. Maybe it has the option which would be cool. They're toyish yes but they're pretty detailed. I do like the droids as well wish they were a bigger scale though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigasshammm Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 1/12 speeder bike and rider up for preorder on HLJ. June release about 33$. !!!!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Milt79 Posted April 27, 2015 Share Posted April 27, 2015 Hello people! I saw a finished build of a new style TIE fighter in the display case of the aircraft forum (Good stuff Aigore!!) and saw Sebastijan mentioning a Star Wars group build. Apparently it almost ends but I just started last week with a Bandai TIE Advanced x1. It's my first Sci-Fi / anything other than aircraft build. Is it too late for me to join? I only have a few pictures of the building process, and I'm into painting the exterior as we speak... Will that do? cheers, Mark Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sebastijan Posted April 27, 2015 Author Share Posted April 27, 2015 Mark, if you think, you can finish it by May, 4th, you are most certainly welcome to join. Just open a thread, post those pics that you already have of the progress and then keep us updated, until the finish. Happy modelling Quote Link to post Share on other sites
