Star Wars Beasts! Action Fleet Toys.

 
This is the Galoob Action Fleet toy that came packaged with the black speeder from last post it appears in the expanded edition of the New Hope. (original Star Wars movie) This animal is used by a Jawa to haul freight and will make useful terrain.
With Ric the Rodian for scale.
 
This it a Bantha ridden by a Tuskin Raider. This picture includes Ric the Rodian for scale. The Action Fleet Bantha has dolls hair glued on its back under the saddle. So if you have one of those little toy pony combs you could comb your Bantha. Besides the hair the other issue this toys has are feet whole in the Bantha's which don't look right. In addition to removing the hair I'll have to re-position the rider and fill in the back holes, But on the plus side he's awfully cute.
The Bantha is packaged with Luke's speeder.
This is a Dewback a creature native to Tatooine used by sand troopers. The sandt rooper rider is too small about 20mm and thus I'll have to replace him. Again Ric the Rodian is in the picture for scale. The Dewback is packaged with the escape pod R2D2 and C3PO use to land on Tatooine.

Speeders

These are Galoob Action Fleet toys I got off Amazon.com. They look rather small in the packages
But they are actually a good size for the realistically proportioned WOTC 28mm figures. I'm sure they would seem too small against the larger Imperial Assault figures.
Here are the package backs of the Action Fleet sets these speeders come from.
Astute readers will note we have surpassed the 50,000 hits mark the contest will begin any day now. So if you are reading this and you haven't become an official follower you should remedy that forth with.

Axis Robot

This is a toy I bought back in the late 1990's in a comic shop it has DC 1998 make in China stamped on the bottom of it. If I remember correctly it's a robot created to fight Superman, I just thought it looked cool and was a good size for gaming. Here is both the front and back next to Fritz the Artizan German 28mm figure. The robot is 63mm from foot to visor (eye). It has an irregular shaped base which is slightly larger than 40mm. I'm going to try to shpe the base into a 40mm circle.

Help Wanted

The funny thing about starting a new period or project is digging up all the bits & bobs you squirreled away. I got this Corgi 2003 special Starkbucks Christmas toy for $1 at a garage sale a couple of years ago. It's 1/56th scale and perfect for 28mm its also a 1940's style truck. I have one big problem there are 7 wheels (including the spare) but I have only 2 of the rubber tires. I need to get a hold of at least 4 more rubber tires to get this truck back in commission does anyone have any idea where I could get some?
