I prefer those windracers from last summer for new clonewars characters. . .

What are these Windracers you speak of?

I usually just use the heads from other figures because they aren't articulated enough for me but I've been known to use other parts if they work for what I have in mind.
Xyber 9  have two cool figures Anakonda and the old man.
Titan A.E. have a few figures I like Akima, Cale, Korso, Preed,  Stith a little large but only used her head and tail.
Jurassic Park some figures work well others are out of scale slightly.
G.I. Joe of course everyone knows these are the same scale.
POTC Pirates of the Caribbean by Zizzle.
Narnia 2 I've used several of these figures they work nicely.
there are a few more I can't think of right now.

Here are some Star Trek figures that I have picked up in the last couple of days. Yesterday, I picked up a McCoy fig at on clearance for $4 at a walmart.

I found these two, today for $4.95 each.
Notice the name insert on this McCoy figure. This is the insert for a spock fig. Think this missnamed sealed carded fig is worth anything?

Anyway, the figures are a bit smaller than the normal SW figures but usually come with some pack-ins.
This spock came with a straight control panel with control and read out screen sticker, a two piece office chair that does not swivel and is screwed together, a nice and flexable softgoods belt with a pouch that has some silver detail poking out of it and a small holster, a phaser, and a figure stand, not to mention the extra hand. I picked this one up for the panel and the chair.

Masterfett, if you are not after the bridge pieces and just want the fig, we can deal cheaply but if not, I will use the belt, also. The panels are also available in curved versions and seem to work well for SW figures, as does the chair.

Noice!  Too bad the local WMs don't carry the ST figs - let alone mark them down or anything!

Anyone know how well (or not) Stargate Atlantis figs work with SW figs?

I haven't picked any stargate figures up because of their price but I have seen them used with other 3.75" and 4" lines.  I believe all the stargate figures were the same scale.  I know that the stargate accessory that came with them (the parts which came with each figure and you had to assemble) was actually a little on the smallish side and wasn't accurate to the gate on the show's scale.

I'll see if I can't find any reference pics of the stargate figs next to known lines...

I know the gate came from the larger line, spectre has one, spuda, as do a few others who's names escape me.

I wish someone would just make a gate and sell it for like 30-40 bucks so we woundn't have to toss out all those figures.

I picked up a half priced bridge for segnett the other day, the scale for ST is pretty small, but passable.

There were 4" scale Stagate figures that tied in with the Movie from 1995, all the figures now are 7" scale. Interesting enough the stargate is more in scale to the 3 3/4" figures the the one they are made for. ;D
I would love it if they made figures form the Stargate universe, and Battlestar Galactica in the SW scale!
