Certainly not with that gun! That looks like some serious fire power!

Believable sense of zero gravity and the terrifying vastness of space in that image, LeStryge!

Thanks Alex & Dave. I think the thing was to set the figure far enough back from the camera to suggest the vastness of space, but I do wish I'd used the foam backed mat for the background as I did in the robot pic. Makes a far more believable starfield!

Great photo LeStryge. Mine is from the Moonraker set. He came with a moon buggy.

Saw that set on offer a while back and have since regretted not buying it. Thing is that although I bought my white-suited figure with that vehicle, I have since learned that the original figure in the set had an orange suit.

You need something but can't get it through conventional means? It's time to hire the best smugglers in the Galaxy! They will get you anything from spice to weaponry! Imperial blockades? not a problem for the best Twi'Lek pilot around, Seela. Her sister Sinya and their first mate Synth provide the muscle and will follow their fearless leader Ta=Shia into any conflict or war zone to get their bounty!

Well, knowing there were a lot of sci-fi figures out there, I just wanted to give everyone a chance to contribute. It seems to have been a good idea.

Fantastic, action-packed photos of the smuggler crew! They certainly seem to know how to get themselves in to trouble! Fun, colorful set of pix!
And now the Star Patrol has a nemesis to chase around the various solar systems! Smugglers and pirates - the "piracy" part has not yet been legally proven, admittedly, but everybody knows!

Amazing how even far into the future, assembling anything still follows the Ikea principle...... Specially with those left-over bits!

Inspired and brilliant, though some ST, SW and BSG purists might reel in horror at the mixing of universes, this was just tops.
