BOSS SHOP: HUTT CARTEL & RIM WRAITH PROJECTS - HUGE SHIPS - PART 2


I got back in the mode to work on my SCUM Huge Ships this week, now that I finally have the Imperial Raider to go with my Rebel Hugies; the SCUM need their Big-bads too. I made some decent progress on the Hutt Patrol Corvette, and now this cool toy gun is starting to look like it might become a badass ship... kinda.



Making long cuts on a large form is tricky. I have found that you need to go slow and firm and use lubrication... Uhh, yeah. Love the damn toy and don't mess it up.


After I had the stock pieces cut, I got a nice surprise seeing how neat they look on the inside. I am going to save these bits to use as hanger bay walls. This will make my Asteroid Base look even better.


The Banshee cuts are done too as of this weekend. The main hull and rear engine housing are ready for base assembly now. I love this mean little badass.



More to come...

COLLECTION DIARY: AUGUST 2015



Well the Imperial Raider is finally in my collection. I am damn happy about that too... like many of the rest of us.
I added a few more Imperial Small ships to the fleet  this month to round out my total EPIC Fleet numbers.
I plan to have from two to twelve of each Small ship so that I can run single or dual pairs of the special ships such as TIE Bombers and Advanced, and big squadrons of the main fleet ships, such as TIE Fighters and Interceptors. I just about have all of that covered now.


The core of my Rim Wraiths heavy squadrons are just about set up now with these five glorious Y-Wing Bombers. Now I just need to get a bunch of the wonderful new Kihraxz Fighters to go with them.


My Klingons are reinforced this month with the new B'rel and a second BOP, and I have the new paper for my Federation Attack Squadrons too.


The Dominion is also getting some nice upgrades with the new Galor, new Fighter Squadron paper, and I finally got the Gor Portas to escort the nice in scale version of this ship, which I got last month.

Up next month: Wave 7 & Force Awakens Glory!!!

THE FORCE AWAKENS SHIP PREVIEWS COME FROM THE OUTER RIM!

X-WING Veterans have been expecting some previews of The FORCE AWAKENS Products since Chris mentioned it at GEN CON during his yearly report. Over the last week some images have been leaked, and I now feel that it is getting time to acknowledge them.



 


There you have it... we can likely expect real previews from Fantasy Flight Games the week of STAR WARS Toy Day which is September fourth.

Fun stuff gang...

STAR WARS GOODIES FROM THIS WEEKENDS D23 EVENT!



Dat Mouse held the D23 event this weekend, and some bits of STAR WARS came from the Outer Rim Territories. It is hush hush for now but we got the cool-ass Drew Struzan EPISODE 7 Poster and some Lego Toys!





Does anybody still not think that all of these ships will be in our X-Wing Games?!?!?!

I am looking forward to buying all of it. Come on Fantasy Flight Games... get it out, yesterday!



Two of my long time reliable Movie-news-peeps; Super Star-Nerd Chris Harloff and his Jawa sidekick Mark talk about Rouge One. This sounds fun and looks good thus far. If they keep it dark and it ends with Vader chasing down Princess Leia... glorious. Carrie's daughter was buzzed during Celebration a few months back, to be playing her retro-young mom in this film. Yeah Leia and Vader... are going to be in this for sure.

More news coming soon... Star Wars Toy Day is September the fourth. That should be when we see the new FFG Episode Seven goodies... for real.

SCUM & VILLIANY WAVES 1 TO 3 - A CLOSER LOOK AT THE FACTION!

http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/IG-2000http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/YV-666_light_freighter





If you have not seen the X-WING ship reviews presented by The Cardboard Dungeon you are in for a treat. Pat does a great job, and in my opinion he is one of the best Star Brothers on YouTube. He is doing it right. Keep up the great work Bro!





SCUM & VILLAINY is by far the best addition to the X-WING game since Fantasy Flight launched Cinematic-EPIC Play. 
FFG is doing everything right to insure that STAR WARS X-WING is on our tables for years to come.

Until SCUM Wave Three... stay in the shadows of The Outer Rim and strike from behind like a Steele Viper!
