[Reefer Shark]

Love this pic! are those the bandai troopers?

That Zaku is beautiful - 1:100 MG kit?

Oh that looks epic! Sometimes, I wished I was a bit more focused.

Quite sure AT-AT Driver is from Marmit. What make is that TIE Pilot?

You are correct the Driver is Marmit, the pilot is Sideshow.

You are correct the Driver is Marmit, the pilot is Sideshow.

Thanks! I have Marmit's version of the TIE Pilot and thought it should be suffice for now. Sideshow's ver is cool but just leaps over what I am prepared to pay one for.

I can't see anything wrong with the marmit at all. I honestly think the ss version is overdone. For the price point you can get two marmits and be jus fine.

I have a strange feeling that the medicom stormy's will start to move a little bit jus due to the fact that a lot of people are complaining (me myself) about the rogue design. It's almost like medicom got the design (minus the height and helmet shape) right before everybody else haha.

Like with the Marmit ATAT driver, the Marmit TIE's chestbox is a bit undersized, and the cut/sew on the Marmit jumpsuits isn't quite as good as Sideshow's, but the Marmit TIE is a pretty decent figure.

Pretty sure the stormtroopers are Mafex. If they were a bit smaller and didn't have the yellowing issue they'd easily be the best at this scale (at least if you were wanting a more ROTJ look).

I'm actually happy with the Marmit's TIE Pilot except for the body - which is cool since he is mostly standing at a static pose, and the belt - which I have swapped out easily with a pleather strap. So it is all good.... for now

Love that line-up, irezumi...looks great!

As we prepare for a new trooper assault from Rogue One, I decided to take another look at some clones...still dig these guys and I'm enjoying the design cues that some of those new troopers are taking from that former grand army in their appearance.

Here's a shot of Rex and a trooper from the 501st...

Still no Detlof, until then these shelves will have to do.

Finally got around to putting some of my figures on shelves. Used an IKEA Pax and added led strip lighting to the undersides of the front edges, hidden with black plastic angle.

Top shelf: modified Rubies Supreme Vader helmet, MR Force FX 2005 & 2007 Vader hilts, resin cast Duracell Vader hilt, Sideshow ANH Darth Vader.

Upper middle: Marmit Sandtrooper with Dragon Lewis gun, Marmit Sandtrooper with Dragon MG-15 and Hasbro pauldron and backpack, Marmit Stormtrooper, Sideshow Stormtrooper with Hot Toys SE-14r pistol, ATA Works Stormtrooper helmet, Doopydoos E-11 blaster.

Lower middle: DA Props TIE helmet, Marmit TIE pilot, Marmit AT-AT driver, Hasbro Imperial Gunner, Hasbro Snowtrooper with 3d printed DLT-20a blaster.

Bottom: Hasbro Royal Guard, Hasbro Emperor Palatine on 3d printed throne, Hasbro Biker Scouts, Marmit Boba Fett.

My Rogue One trooper squad so far. If I can find them I'd like to get 4 more to round out the squad

You can fit a boxed Speederbike in a PAX unit?!? What's the interior width? And can you get doors for it?

The one I bought is 75cm wide x 58cm deep x 201 high, interior size is 71cm wife x 57 deep. I needed the depth for the TIE helmet, it wouldn't fit in a Besta or Detolf. There Speeder Bike box is on top of 10cm high clear acrylic risers so there's plenty of space.

I haven't got a door for it, but I'm intending to get a sheet of 4mm or 5mm acrylic and some hinges to fit. IKEA don't do a single door for these.

Very nice. Thanks for the details. That might just be wide enough to fit Jabbas Throne. Awesome! Going to measure it up now.
