Newly tooled Gunship coming!!
« on: June 07, 2009, 07:03:38 PM »
Masterfett steered me twards this one.

As reported by jedinews.co.uk

We are to get two new gunships with different doors. They are to be exclusives to both TRU and Walmart chains with each chain getting a different deco. The TRU one is rumored to be the Crumb bomber.
No news on when they are to obe released but I'll bet that we will find out come SDCC, this year.
  Just when you thought that they wouldn't release another gunship.

Those flip-down doors are great!  Guess I best start saving...

I have a buddy who wants to see one in a desert camo scheme.  May have to borrow Clint's pattern from his desert troopers and carry it onto a gunship...

Daggone! Do I dip back into the prequels?! Must remain focused, must remain focused. Daggone it looks good though.

Go for it, buddy. I am anxious to see how it would turn out.

I could try to resist getting this one but I don't see how.. I always was partial to the crumb bomber, anyway.

The Gunship is one of my most favorite Vehicles in the PT next to an AT-TE of course! So I'm happy to hear about its return I just hope I can find the Walmart one this time around since the crumb design does not interest me! I'd really like to get the Lucky Lekku that was the most interesting and cool paint app since the CW shark.

Sounds like I'll be saving up for a new gunship. I really like the fully closing doors. This "might" mean I can turn my current gunship into the AT-TE Carry All?

I'm not to partial to what ever paint app they do since I'll just end up customizing over it :P

Why go through life base fig, when you can customize?

I like the sounds of that AT-TE carrier, Sten! Keep us updated on that one.

Well, I was planning on dumping my current gunship, anyway(since I don't want to paint it to be coruscant guard colors, lol).
