Man, if you modify it, it will become the most excellent LAAT out there! Take your time on that and don't stress yourself with price/value. It'll be priceless once you're done. Awesome announcement!

That's the ideal, Philipp! It's meant to become a one of a kind piece. I want to get it as close to the authentic vehicle as possible...

With that in mind, please enjoy this cross-section!

Brilliant those cross-sections truly are! I got the book and have already spent hours looking at all the details! Yes, I'm most certain your take on it will be definitive!
Speaking about size and accuracy this is probably the best version we got from Hasbro. But I want them to make a new one - even bigger and more accurate - they can go ahead and launch it as the next HasLab project. I'd be in!

Just a conceptual idea I came up with...

So if I can win the bid, I've found my next project.

Behold, the IG-227 Hailfire Droid.

Pretty nice. I hope we see some of those Sep Droids make a store comeback when TCW starts off again.

Believe it or not, these guys have zero screentime in TCW.

Very cool! I wish you good luck for the auction! I also saw the 2003 Hailfire Droid for $24.99 buy-it-now on ebay.com. This Clone Wars version and first release of the Hailfire is actually my favorite. They are all hard to find here in Germany. I own two of them: CW and TSC release. But I’ve never seen this TCW Version in the wild (online included) here. It’s a nice coincidence that I was thinking of a repaint of this Droid a day before you posted this. Can’t wait to see what you’re going to do with it. You might wanna pick up that aforementioned CW version, too. I think 25 bucks is a fair price for this rare vehicle.

I also found the Republic Fighter Tank for the same price point.

Sounds great! Did you get the TX-130 then? (I do hope so!) How awesome would it be to see you customize that tank? It’s actually my favorite ground vehicle of the GAR. Battlefront II has had quite an impact on me...

Not yet. Eventually I will get it.

I did manage to get my first battle droid today.

Darman Skirata turned out great. I like the weathering.
I can't wait to see your custom Gunship.

I really like your clone trooper stretcher concept, you could totally do more with that. I'll be interested to see what you do with the Hail fire (assuming you get it).

Eventually I want a clone medic. Just need to figure out the best figure for that role. I did manage to get the  Hailfire Droid though!

Excellent! I watched that auction and was very happy to see this morning that nobody else bid with you. Sometimes it’s odd how many people bid on one item and sometimes nobody is. 30 bucks is a good deal for this rare version of the Hailfire!
Also the Super Battle Droid is a great one - time to give him a repaint/weathering/scratching.

Man, I really enjoy following your thread here!
