Nice! Did one of these a couple of years ago...need to track another one down. Got a scheme in mind yet?

Looking the kit over it looks pretty good, however they want you to display it in flight mode. You have a detailed cockpit, but no pilot. This ship should be shown parked with the canopy open, but there is no landing gear. So the dilemma is do you look for a figure or scratch landing gear.

Nice choice! "do you look for a figure or scratch landing gear." Short answer: yes.

Yeah, you nailed it...that's the one big drawback to this kit. In flight without a pilot!

Shouldn't be too much of a problem for you Terry!

I guess there are lots of scratching or sculpting possibilities! A landing gear and a ladder would look nice, opened panels with some interior design?

Thanks for the imput everyone! I guess I will head in the direction of building some landing gear, but who know where it will end.

Scratch the gear. If the interior detail is a nice as you say, it would look neat in a Geonosis setting with one of those green colored R2 units.

If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the precipitate.

I know it is not the same ship, but the gear might be similar?

Be careful. Someone may want to build a cut away version!
