The booster is the bigger "turtle"-looking part, yeah?  With a lid that lifts up to make a 3-story play/display area?

If I don;t nail this one on ebay, we may have to play Let's Make a Deal!

Do you have one of the mini-jets that I'm seeing in some of the auctions?  It *looks* like it could give you a start on a smaller V shuttlecraft...  It also looks like it would do nicely in a 'Station diorama here at the Outlands!  System Defense Craft, indeed!  (and I found an auction with 4 complete and 1 missing a couple of panels, as if it were in for maintenance...)

I believe it is the drone from the night raven, but maybe you are talking about something else.

If you find a start for V shuttle, please let me know, :)


And as far as the booster, I was holding it for a guy(for over a year), but he decided he didn't want it, so if one of you guys want it, you can have it.  You just have to pay shipping, :)

Also, I'm selling a ton of stuff on EBay right now, at orders from the wife, so I can probably mail it out, fast, lol.

He's weak, Clint!  Grab it quick!!   ;D  I've got money on that auction on ebay, so if you want Narce's, Clint, jump on it.  Otherwise...I may own two! (ask me in 24 hrs...)

Narce, look at these shuttles and see if they will work for you...  I'm interested in them, but if you think you can make one work, we can cut a deal for sure.

those are recolored night raven drones, they fit one guy.

But they do "look" right, hmm.

Narce, if you wanna split the bunch of them, I'm game.  Heck, even if all you want is one, that's cool.  I have a vision of a hanger full of these guys, hung in racks a la TIE fighters, waiting to swarm out and defend the station.  hehe - But if you want, say, four...that's cool too.  I do want one, at least.  ;D

Clint, that's the idea!  Heck, we gotta look out for each other, y'know!

Tell ya what, I plan to end up with them and he's got some other stuff I'm interested in too.  If I do end up with them, you'll know where to find one if you decide you need one for a shot at the V shuttle.  I'll save at least one out and not customize it.  Fair nuff?

SCORE!!!  That monster shuttle playset is MINE!!!  Because, you see, according to the extra pics she sent me, that lid flips up into a multi-level play-/display-area (which Narce has verified).  I'm paying more in shipping than I paid for the ships.   ;)  NOW I'm wondering if I can customize/rebuild that beyotch into a Ghtroc 720-series freighter!!



After a quick study of Frank Bonura's deckplans page, I'm pretty sure the answer is no.  Or, more accurately, "Not fast, cheap, nor easily."  That's ok - the toy will no doubt help churn my imagination as I play with it.  I dream of a proper action-fig-scale Ghtroc, but it would easily outsize the BMF.  I'll settle for a playable BMF-sized one.

Bid is in on the bundle of small shuttles, too.

And - MAN!!!  I found control centers for the crawler piece of this playset.  I could make a Star Destroyer "bridge-pit" out of those!  Or Fixer's engineering room!  Lotta dio potential in them!  sweeeeet!!!

How bout a link or a pic on those control centers? I am just curious. Also, I picked up something at that antique mall that you might be interested in..............

I like the engine room and control room parts. Lots of detail could be painted onto those panels.
